FAQs About Vitamin C

  • What is Vitamin C and why is it important?

    Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a powerful antioxidant that supports immune function, collagen production, iron absorption, and protection against oxidative stress. It’s essential for overall health but cannot be produced by the body — it must be obtained through diet or supplements.
  • How much Vitamin C should I take daily?

    The recommended daily intake varies by diet, age and lifestyle, but adults typically need between 45–90mg daily. For immune support, higher doses (e.g. 500–1000mg) are common — always follow product labels or consult your healthcare provider.
  • What’s the difference between regular and liposomal Vitamin C?

    Liposomal Vitamin C uses a fat-soluble delivery system to enhance absorption and reduce digestive upset, making it ideal for those needing higher doses or with sensitive stomachs.
  • Can Vitamin C help prevent or shorten chills?

    While Vitamin C may not prevent winters ills and chills entirely, studies show it can reduce the duration and severity of symptoms — especially in physically active people or during periods of stress.
  • Is Vitamin C safe to take every day?

    Yes — it’s water-soluble, so excess is usually excreted. However, extremely high doses (2,000mg or more) may cause digestive upset in some people. Always follow dosage recommendations.
  • Adults: Chew one or two tablets daily, or as professionally advised.
