Vitamin C was discovered in 1932, becoming the subject of the first controlled nutritional experiment in the documented history of medicine. It is known to be involved in at least 300 biochemical processes in the body. This vitamin is water-soluble, and since humans are unable to produce it, it must be ingested daily.
Vitamin C is important because it: Contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and nervous system.
It contributes to the normal formation of collagen for the normal functioning of blood vessels, cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, and skin.
It promotes energy metabolism and improves iron absorption.
It contributes to normal psychological function and to the protection of cells from oxidative damage.
Helps reduce tiredness and fatigue, and regenerates the reduced form of vitamin E.
Lamberts Vitamin C 1000mg Tablets provide adequate levels of vitamin C for those with dietary vitamin C insufficiency. These tablets also contain a significant level of bioflavonoids, known to facilitate vitamin C absorption and have specific effects on strengthening capillaries. These bioflavonoids include rutin, quercetin, citrin, and hesperidin.
For optimal results, vitamin C should be taken in small amounts throughout the day and night, as the body eliminates it quickly. However, this isn't always possible, which is why we have formulated sustained-release vitamin C tablets.
These tablets are produced using a special process that retains the nutrient in spherical microcapsules, allowing for a slow release once ingested. This means that vitamin C absorption is a continuous process, as the release is gradual, over 6-8 hours.
