Why pH-buffered vitamin C?
The most common form of vitamin C in dietary supplements is ascorbic acid, but this form is very acidic and can therefore irritate on sensitive stomachs. Healthwell Vitamin pH-Neutral instead contains calcium ascorbate, which is a compound of ascorbate (vitamin C) and calcium which is an alkaline mineral. This results in a gentler form of the vitamin that is kinder on the stomach. In addition, acid-neutral vitamin C has a longer half-life, which means that the substance remains in the body for a longer time after ingestion. This is in contrast to ascorbic acid, which needs to be replenished continuously to provide the desired effect.
In Healthwell Vitamin C pH-neutral, we have also added citrus bioflavonoids and rosehip extracts that interact with vitamin C in a beneficial way. This compound occurs naturally in the plant world and contributes both to the uptake and the effect of vitamin C in the body. Rosehips are also rich in a variety of other healthy nutrients.

Vitamin C in the body
Vitamin C is linked to several important functions in the body, including helping the immune system to function normally. Vitamin C is also an antioxidant that protects the body's cells from being broken down. In addition, the vitamin contributes to collagen production and iron absorption in the body.
Dosage
The recommended dose is 1 tablet per day, but this can be increased to 2 tablets spread out during the day if necessary. Start with one tablet daily to test your tolerance level. If you do not want to swallow the tablets whole, it is a good idea to divide them as needed.
