Vitamin C High Strength 1000mg – controlled release (90 Tablets)

For better overall health and wellbeing

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient which serves several vital functions to help you maintain good overall health. These include protecting your cells from the damage caused by free radicals, keeping your skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage healthy, boosting your immune system and helping wounds to heal. Vitamin C is found in a wide variety of fruit and vegetables. Citrus fruit, strawberries, red peppers, Blackcurrants, broccoli and potatoes are all the best natural sources. However, because the body can absorb only a small amount of Vitamin C at any one time, much of the Vitamin C you get from food gets flushed away naturally.

That’s where Lily & Loaf can help. Our new high-strength Vitamin C 1,000mg – controlled-release supplement can keep you topped up throughout the day. It’s been specially formulated to slowly release Vitamin C over 12-16 hours, for optimal absorption. It has also been carefully blended with other natural ingredients, including Rosehip, Acerola and Citrus Bioflavonoids, which have been specially selected to aid and enhance the effects of Vitamin C and help build the body’s resistance to airborne infections and pathogens.

The importance of Vitamin C

Vitamin C – also known as Ascorbic Acid – is a water-soluble vitamin that supports the growth and repair of cells and tissues in all parts of the body. It helps the body to make skin, muscle, cartilage and blood vessels, heal wounds and form scar tissue. It also supports the healthy growth of bones, teeth, eyes, hair and nails.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant which helps to prevent the damage caused to cells by free radicals. The harmful toxins are created when your body breaks down food or drink, or when you are exposed to smoke, alcohol or other pollutants. Over time, free radicals cause oxidative stress to your cells and organs, which accelerates the ageing process and can lead to more severe health conditions, like heart disease and arthritis.

Vitamin C helps your body to fight back against the damage caused by free radicals. However, your body can’t create or store Vitamin C, so it needs a regular supply throughout the day.

What are bioflavonoids?

Rosehip, Acerola and other citrus fruits contain antioxidants called bioflavonoids, which provide an additional protective element to Vitamin C, to provide optimal antioxidant support. As well as enhancing the absorption and effects of Vitamin C, bioflavonoids also provide several key health benefits, including supporting healthy skin development, decreasing the risk of developing eye conditions like cataracts, and strengthening the immune system. They also have anti-allergen and anti-inflammatory properties, so can be used to ease the symptoms of acne, eczema and skin allergies, as well as asthma.
