Our daily requirement for vitamin C is higher than any other water-soluble vitamin, given that it is rapidly excreted by the body. As such, vitamin C ideally needs to be taken in small amounts throughout the day and night, which is not always convenient. This is where Lamberts Time Release Vitamin C 1000mg can help.
Providing 1000mg of vitamin C (as ascorbic acid), Lamberts Time Release Vitamin C 1000mg tablets are produced by a special process that retains the nutrient in micropellets, enabling its gradual release over 6-8 hours. As such, the gut is able to absorb a higher level of vitamin C, ensuring that there is less waste and a more stable level in the bloodstream for a longer period. Replicating the natural process of food digestion, this ensures that the beneficial effects of vitamin C are available over a sustained period. Vitamin C contributes to:
Normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage, bones and blood vessels, gums, skin and teeth,
Normal functioning of the nervous system, immune system and psychological function,
The protection of cells from oxidative stress,
Normal energy-yielding metabolism,
The reduction of tiredness and fatigue,
The regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E.
As a clinically-led formula, Lamberts Time Release Vitamin C 1000mg tablets also contain a relevant level of bioflavonoids, including rutin, quercetin, citrin and hesperidin, plus rose hip. In addition to aiding the absorption of vitamin C, there is evidence to suggest that the bioflavonoids may demonstrate a strengthening effect on the capillaries.
