Vitamin C Time Release with Bioflavonoids 1500mg

Understanding Time-Release Technology

Time-release, also referred to as sustained-release, is a formulation designed to release the active ingredient gradually rather than all at once. This is achieved through a special matrix that controls the dissolution rate. For water-soluble nutrients like vitamin C, which are quickly excreted, a time-release form can help maintain more consistent levels in the body throughout the day. The aim of this delivery system is to mimic the steady absorption that occurs from food, potentially reducing the need for multiple doses.

The Role of Bioflavonoids

Bioflavonoids are a group of plant compounds often found alongside vitamin C in fruits and vegetables. In this supplement, 60mg of citrus bioflavonoids are included per tablet. While their exact role in the body is complex, they are frequently added to vitamin C supplements because of their natural association with the nutrient. Some research suggests that bioflavonoids may support the body's absorption of vitamin C, whilst more studies are needed. By including them, this product offers a more complete profile that mirrors whole-food sources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a time-release vitamin C?

Time-release supplements are designed to provide a gradual supply of nutrients, which may be beneficial for water-soluble vitamins like C that are not stored in large amounts. This can help prevent rapid spikes and drops in blood levels.

Can I take this on an empty stomach?

While it can be taken without food, taking it with a meal may reduce the likelihood of mild stomach discomfort, as high doses of vitamin C can sometimes cause digestive issues.

Is this suitable for vegans?

The product is suitable for vegetarians. For specific vegan suitability, we recommend checking the manufacturer's current labelling, as formulations may change.

How long does one bottle last?

One bottle contains a supply for the number of tablets indicated on the label. With a daily dose of one tablet, the bottle size will determine the duration.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. Always read the label and follow directions for use.
