Product details
Food supplement in the form of a hard capsule containing vitamin C in the form of calcium ascorbate, with rutin and rose hip extract. Calcium ascorbate has lower acidity than ascorbic acid, therefore is better tolerated by the stomach.
Vitamin C is one of the water-soluble vitamins and is responsible for a number of processes in the body. It affects, among others, the proper functioning of the immune system and helps protect mitochondria and DNA from oxidative stress. Vitamin C also helps the condition of the musculoskeletal system. It participates in the proper production of collagen, responsible for the good condition of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth. In addition, it supports the functioning of the nervous system and contributes to maintaining normal psychological functions and reducing the feeling of fatigue and weariness. Studies have shown that vitamin C plays a significant role in energy production. The benefits of taking this substance can also be felt by people who exercise. It has been proven that vitamin C reduces effort and fatigue in exercisers. Additionally, it increases the absorption of iron and vitamin E.
Rutin (also known as vitamin P or rutoside) is a bioflavonoid obtained from the Japanese pagoda tree (Latin Sophora japonica).
The human body is not able to produce vitamin C on its own, so it is necessary to obtain it from the diet [9]. Good sources of this substance are fruits and vegetables (such as red and green peppers, kiwi, broccoli, strawberries, and Brussels sprouts). Vitamin C can also be obtained through drinking juices, such as orange or grapefruit juice. Fruits rich in vitamin C often also contain bioflavonoids. Rutin is a naturally occurring flavonoid in many foods, especially buckwheat, apricots, cherries, grapes, grapefruits, plums, and oranges.
Our supplement contains a high amount of vitamin C in buffered form - calcium ascorbate. It is better tolerated by the stomach due to its lower acidity compared to ascorbic acid. In the recommended daily dose, which corresponds to 2 capsules, there is 1000 mg of vitamin C enriched with extract from the flower of Japanese pearl barley standardized to 95% rutin (25 mg) and extract from wild rose fruits (Latin Rosa canina, 25 mg).
