Holland & Barrett Vitamin C 500mg - 30 Tablets

Vitamin C is the first vitamin most of us learn about. From a very early age, we are told how important getting enough vitamin C is to keep us fit and healthy. It is the reason our fruit bowls are packed with oranges and it is why we squeeze fresh lemons into boiling water in an attempt to ward off seasonal colds.

As we grow older, we learn more about the importance of consuming a wide range of vitamins and minerals, from B vitamins for energy and heart health to iron for red blood cell production and magnesium for muscle and nerve health.

But vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, remains important throughout our lives, not least as one of the most vital immune support vitamins.

And getting your daily dose of this vital vitamin is easy – just one of these tablets per day will give you 500mg of vitamin C, allowing you to get on with your day, knowing that your vit C requirements are covered.

While many, if not most of us find all the vitamin C we need in our daily diet (it is not just found in citrus but also in peppers, strawberries, broccoli and even potatoes), for some, vitamin C tablets can provide a much-needed extra dose.

Not getting enough vitamin C can lead to a wide range of effects, including poor skin health and bleeding gums.

One of the most common signs of a lack of vitamin C, however, is low immunity, which may make you more susceptible to feeling under the weather when you catch something. More often than not, there is a good chance you will benefit from an immune support supplement containing vitamin C.

Taking vitamin C supplements for your immune system can help ensure it is functioning as it should be especially if you are not getting enough of this important vitamin in your daily diet.

Not just an immune support vitamin, vitamin C is involved in almost every area of our health.

A natural antioxidant, vitamin C helps to protect our cells from head-to-toe from free radical damage.

Vitamin C also helps support the normal formation of collagen for the normal functioning of our skin, teeth, cartilage, bones and blood vessels.

The link between vitamin C and natural immunity have led to a long-held belief among many of us that getting enough vitamin C can stop us from getting a cold or flu, or even cure symptoms.

While this is not strictly true, we know that taking a vitamin C supplement, or eating a diet high in vitamin C, provides you with the support to make sure your immune system Is functioning normally.
