Who can take Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C?

The active ingredient in Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C, calcium ascorbate, is believed to be softer on the stomach than ascorbic acid, which when in a solution is quite acidic! Therefore, those with very sensitive tummies or who may already be supplementing with large amounts of vitamin C, may notice a significant reduction in minor gastric upsets when choosing to supplement with Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C.

What does Vitamin C do?

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells from oxidative Stress caused by ‘free radicals'. It also contributes to normal collagen formation for the regular function of cartilage, the tough tissue that lines the surfaces of joints.

How much Vitamin C should I take?

An individuals daily requirement for vitamin C is higher than for any other water-soluble vitamin. Ideally, vitamin C needs to be taken in small amounts throughout the day and night because it is rapidly lost from the Body. 

Up to 2g of vitamin C can be taken with Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C (4 tablets), and if this amount is being consumed Lamberts advise that tablets are spread out through the day. Each Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C 500mg tablet makes a valuable contribution to an individual’s calcium intake, providing over 70mg of calcium if they are taking several tablets per day.
