C-1000 (Ascorbic Acid 1000 mg) 120 Vegetarian Capsules by Karuna Health

Vitamins are important nutrients your body needs to work properly. They can be split into two groups: fat-soluble and water-soluble. Fat-soluble vitamins can be stored by your body for extended periods of time, while water-soluble vitamins can't.

Ascorbic acid, also known as vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin that has multiple roles within your body. It enables your immune system to produce white blood cells, which detect and destroy bacteria and viruses. At the same time, it aids the absorption of iron and folic acid, two nutrients required to produce the red blood cells that transport oxygen to the tissues. It maintains the health of your teeth and gums while also playing a role in the production of collagen, a protein present in your blood vessels and skin. Additionally, if you've recently experienced trauma, ascorbic acid supplements may help reduce your recovery time by speeding up the healing process.

Your body is unable to manufacture vitamin C, meaning that you have to get it on a daily basis through the food you eat or supplements. Fruits and vegetables such as oranges, kiwi, and broccoli are good sources of ascorbic acid. Potential signs of a vitamin C deficiency include bleeding gums, swollen and painful joints, wounds that take a long time to heal, and unexplained bruising.

If you're concerned about your vitamin C intake, ask your doctor to take a blood sample to measure your ascorbic acid levels. If you're found to be lacking in ascorbic acid, you may be advised to take a supplement like Karuna Health’s C-1000. Each vegetarian capsule contains 1,000 mg of vitamin C and promotes the absorption of iron from your diet, assists in the cell formation process, and strengthens immunity.

A 120-capsule bottle of C-1000 by Karuna Health will last you for four months at the recommended dosage of one capsule daily.
