If you need a high potency vitamin C but are searching for an alternative to swallowing tablets and capsules - look no further - our Vitamin C Effervescent fits the bill! Simply drop these handy soluble tablets into water to make a tangy orange flavoured drink, free from artificial sweeteners, flavours and preservatives. Deficiency of vitamin C leads to lowered immunity and a higher susceptibility to infections but unlike most animals, humans have lost the ability to make their own vitamin C. Not only that - we are also unable to store vitamin C in the body, so we must obtain it from our diet on a daily basis. However, even with a healthy diet, the vitamin C content of foods is affected by prolonged storage times, heat and water-based cooking. As well as supporting immunity, Vitamin C is needed for many important functions in the body including energy production and combatting tiredness and fatigue. It is also needed for the process of making collagen for our skin, teeth, bones, gums, blood vessels and joints, supporting resilience to stress and aiding the absorption of iron from our food. All the more reason to top up with a tasty drink that packs a powerful punch!
