Vitamin C Time Release 90 Tablets

Designed to offer support for our immune systems, energy production, collagen production and more, Vitamin C Time Release offers a potent dose of vitamin C, 1000mg, in a slow-release format which not only maximises absorption of vitamin C but is also gentle on the digestive tract.

Our Vitamin C Time Release has long been one of our most popular formulas, having been a staple product that our practitioners have used with their clients for years, particularly through the winter months. Our product provides a potent dose of vitamin C - 1000mg - but to maximise absorption we provide it in a time-release format that sees the vitamin C released in the body over several hours. We've also added bioflavonoids to help increase the uptake of the vitamin C meaning you get the most out of every tablet.

Vitamin C plays many important roles within the body. It is needed for the normal functioning of our nervous system, and our immune system, including during and after intense physical exercise. Vitamin C is essential for the formation of collagen, the most abundant protein in the connective tissues of the body, which is necessary for the normal formation and functioning of the blood vessels, the bones, teeth and gums, and the skin.

It also helps with the production of energy, and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue. It is also an important antioxidant, helping to protect cells from oxidative damage, which can contribute to premature aging. Finally, it helps to increase iron absorption, which is a nutrient we are often low or deficient in.

Intense activity can impair the ability of the immune system to work normally and can increase the number of free radicals. Vitamin C can help athletes by maintaining the immune system during and after intense exercise and helping to protect cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals.

Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin, meaning you will only absorb so much at a time and is rapidly lost from the body.  It’s best taken in regular small amounts so a time-released formula means slower release of vitamin C over time, which will maximise the amount you absorb from each dose.

Bioflavonoids are a complex group of substances that occur with vitamin C in nature. Bioflavonoids are known to improve the uptake of vitamin C when added in supplements so it’s always best to take them together.

Vitamin C increases non- haem (non-meat) iron absorption. Iron has an important role in the body as it contributes to normal oxygen transport and is needed for the formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin.

People take vitamin C to support all sorts of issues, including immunity, energy production and for skin health. Depending on the reason for taking it, some may notice a difference in as little as a few days to a week. For others, it may take a number of weeks for the effects to be noticeable. We'd recommend taking this product for 3 months to ensure you give enough time to feel the benefits although this may vary between individuals.

Vitamin C is a renowned nutrient for optimal skin health. A potent antioxidant, it protects the skin from damaging free radicals and oxidative stress, which are both key contributors to premature skin ageing. Vitamin C also promotes collagen production, which is crucial for both maintaining skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

Vitamin C has a number of health benefits. In addition to its immune-health supporting properties, it plays a role in collagen synthesis and supports joint health and wound healing. In addition, it enhances the absorption from iron from plant-based foods.
