Description
A NATURAL & ORGANIC VITAMIN C
We use an acerola extract derived from organic acerola cherries harvested in Brazil, the fruit’s origin. The organic cultivation allows us to offer a product that's free from harmful pesticides and is not chemically treated during the extraction process. Compared to isolated or synthetic ascorbic acid, the acerola extract contains organically bound vitamin C, comprising a unique compound of phytonutrients like dietary fibre & valuable antioxidants. This results in its high bioavailability and bioactivity.
Our capsules are not overdosed. Vitamin C is naturally found in a lot of foods, and an excess will be flushed out of the body. Highly dosed vitamin C supplements can cause heartburn and other digestive problems, while a natural form is more gentle on the stomach. Our product is additive-free, while many low-quality vitamin C tablets contain them. Lastly, through extensive laboratory checks at an independent laboratory, we ensure the top quality of our product.

- Avoid taking the capsules in the evening; it can cause problems falling asleep.
- We recommend to take it together with an iron supplement, as vitamin C enhances the absorption of iron.
