According to EFSA, vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. As an antioxidant, it helps protect cells from oxidative stress, which can arise from environmental factors and normal metabolic processes. Additionally, vitamin C is essential for normal collagen formation, which is necessary for the structure of skin, cartilage, gums, teeth, and blood vessels. This liquid supplement provides a high-dose of 1000 mg per serving, along with 100 mg of lemon bioflavonoids that may work synergistically to enhance its activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis formula also aids the absorption of non-heme iron, making it particularly beneficial for those on plant-based diets. The pleasant orange flavour makes it easy to incorporate into your daily routine, whether taken directly or mixed into water or juice. For individuals who struggle with tablets, the liquid form offers a convenient alternative with flexible dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypes of Vitamin C Supplements\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin C is available in several forms, including ascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate, calcium ascorbate, and liposomal variants. NaturesPlus Liquid Vitamin C uses ascorbic acid, the most researched and cost-effective form. Liquid preparations have advantages: they are easier to swallow, allow for adjustable dosages, and are often absorbed more quickly than solid tablets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe inclusion of lemon bioflavonoids, naturally occurring plant compounds, may help improve the bioavailability of vitamin C. This product is suitable for vegetarians and is free from gluten, catering to a wide range of dietary needs. It is manufactured in facilities registered with the MHRA and GMP-certified, ensuring rigorous quality control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Vitamin C and Why Do You Need It?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient that humans cannot synthesise, so it must be obtained from diet or supplementation. It functions as a powerful antioxidant, neutralising free radicals and supporting the body's natural defences. It is also vital for the production of collagen, a structural protein found in skin, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. Many individuals rely on supplements to fill nutritional gaps, especially during seasonal changes or when fruit and vegetable intake is insufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause vitamin C is water-soluble, any excess is excreted, making consistent daily intake important. This liquid formula provides a practicable way to maintain adequate levels, with a pleasant orange taste that masks the slight acidity of ascorbic acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Dosage and Safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach serving (30 ml, approximately 1 fl oz) delivers 1000 mg of vitamin C, which exceeds the EFSA-recommended daily intake for adults. The typical dosage is 30 ml per day, but individual requirements may vary. As vitamin C is water-soluble, high intakes (above 2000 mg daily) may cause mild digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways consult a health care professional before starting supplementation, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or taking medication. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. Keep out of reach of children.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I take this liquid vitamin C?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShake well before uses.
