Vitamin C is essential for a healthy immune system, healthy bones, teeth and gums, and helps maintain normal blood lipids and cholesterol levels. Our daily requirement for Vitamin C is greater than any other water-soluble vitamin. Ideally, Vitamin C should be taken in small amounts throughout the day and night because it is rapidly excreted from the body. However, in practice this is very difficult to do, which is why Lamberts created Vitamin C Time Release tablets. These tablets are produced after a special process, which keeps the nutrients in microspheres, allowing them to be released slowly after the tablet is swallowed. This means that the absorption of Vitamin C is a continuous process that lasts for approximately 6 to 8 hours. Lamberts gradual release Vitamin C contains a significant amount of bioflavonoids that help in its absorption by the body. It has been proven that bioflavonoids possess specific active properties, one of which is the strengthening of the capillary wall. Bioflavonoids include rutin, quercetin, citrin and hesperidin.
