Solaray Vitamin C with Rose Hips & Acerola, 500 mg, 100 Capsules

What Makes This Timed-Release Formula Special?

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient that the body cannot produce on its own. This supplement features a two-stage timed-release system within each capsule: half is released rapidly for immediate absorption, while the remaining half is released gradually over up to 12 hours. This design helps maintain steady levels of vitamin C throughout the day, making it a convenient choice for those wanting consistent support without multiple doses. The formula combines ascorbic acid with whole-food concentrates of rose hips and acerola cherry to deliver 1000 mg per serving.
