Vitamin C complex buffered with bioflavonoids

• STOMACH-FRIENDLY - Our buffered vitamin C complex contains two particularly stomach-friendly vitamin C compounds: calcium ascorbate and magnesium ascorbate. Thanks to its connection with a mineral, buffered vitamin C is acid-free and therefore especially gentle on the stomach. The complex is thus also suitable for people with sensitive stomachs or intestines. 
• HIGH DOSE - a full 1000 mg of vitamin C (1250% NRV) per daily serving
• PLUS BIOFLAVONODES - Natural synergistic effect: improved vitamin C availability and recycling through bioflavonoids from bitter orange
• PROVEN EFFECTIVENESS Vitamin C supports the immune system (body's defenses), energy metabolism, the nervous system, and normal psychological function. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress and increases iron absorption. It is also essential for normal collagen formation (blood vessels, bones, cartilage, teeth, gums, skin).
• LONG-TERM SUPPLY - One glass covers the needs of 4 months based on the recommended daily intake.
• 100% TRUE CLEAN LABEL Our buffered vitamin C capsules contain only what we declare on the product label. We do not use any excipients or flow agents. No magnesium stearate. 
• MADE IN GERMANY - Our vegan buffered vitamin C capsules with bioflavonoids are carefully manufactured in Germany and thoroughly tested by a certified laboratory for pollutants such as heavy metals, bacteria, molds and ethylene oxide (EtO) contamination.
• GLASS INSTEAD OF PLASTIC Our high-dose vitamin C capsules are manufactured exclusively in sustainable, pharmaceutical-grade glass jars with aluminum lids. This way, you're not only doing something good for your body, but also for the environment.

Orally ingested vitamin C is actively absorbed via sodium-dependent transporters (using energy). In the blood, it is v.a. It is transported as dehydroascorbic acid and then reduced back to ascorbic acid in the tissue/cells using glutathione.

The absorption rate, d.h. The proportion of orally administered vitamin C that actually reaches the cells decreases with increasing dose. With a single dose of 100 mg, approximately 90% of the ingested amount reaches the cells, while with 3000 mg this value drops to only 40%.

However, absorption can be improved by

• Esterification of magnesium and/or calcium ascorbate (“Ester C”) and
• in combination with bioflavonoids

Low-dose oral vitamin C supplements Up to 500 mg doses have a high bioavailability of up to 95% when actively transported. %. Therefore, it is recommended to divide the vitamin C intake into several doses..
