Buffered C-1000 Complex Now® is a combination of vitamin C buffered with bioflavonoids, acerola and rutin. The food supplement in the form of tablets can be used as a supplement to the daily diet of adults throughout the year. What makes buffered vitamin C special? Vitamin C in the form of L-ascorbic acid is naturally acidic. Taking large portions of a compound with an acidic pH can irritate the digestive tract. Buffered vitamin C is created when mineral salt is added to ascorbic acid. The salt produced by the reaction combines a highly absorbable form of ascorbic acid with a buffer mineral, i.e. calcium, which reduces the acidity of vitamin C. Because of this, the calcium salt of L-ascorbic acid is gentler on the stomach. . How does vitamin C work? Vitamin C is an extremely valuable component of the daily diet belonging to exogenous vitamins. The human body cannot produce vitamin C on its own and must be fed with a well-selected and balanced menu. Vitamin C: helps maintain the proper functioning of the immune system, participates in the proper production of collagen to ensure the proper functioning of blood vessels, bones, teeth, gums and skin, helps to reduce the feeling of tiredness and fatigue, helps maintain adequate energy metabolism, supports cell protection against oxidative stress, helps the proper functioning of the nervous system and the maintenance of psychological functions. Each tablet contains 1000 mg of enriched vitamin C and 250 mg of citrus biofavonoids. To obtain the beneficial effect resulting from the declared action, it is recommended to take 1 tablet with a high content of vitamin C every day. A package containing 90 tablets will ensure three months of supplementation.
