Swanson Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids for Immune Support 100 Capsules

The autumn and winter season is a time when our immunity is put to a particular test. If you also have a sensitive stomach, supplementing with standard vitamin C can be a challenge. Swanson Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids is a well-thought-out combination that provides support in a gentle, non-acidic form, caring for the comfort of your digestive system.

• Immune Support: Vitamin C helps in the proper functioning of the immune system, which is crucial, especially during periods of increased illness.
• Antioxidant Protection: It contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, supporting the body in its fight against free radicals.
• Skin and Vessel Health: It supports normal collagen production for the proper function of the skin, blood vessels, and bones.
• Gentle on the Stomach: Thanks to its buffered form (calcium ascorbate), it is gentler on the stomach than traditional L-ascorbic acid.

What is the difference between ascorbic acid and buffered vitamin C?

The main difference lies in the pH level. Standard L-ascorbic acid is acidic, which can cause stomach discomfort for some people. Buffered vitamin C, like the one in the Swanson product, is calcium ascorbate. It is a salt of ascorbic acid that has been neutralized with a mineral, in this case, calcium. This gives it a near-neutral pH, making it a much gentler form for the stomach lining. It's an excellent solution for individuals with food sensitivities who want to enjoy the benefits of vitamin C without unpleasant side effects.

Are bioflavonoids necessary with vitamin C supplementation?

While vitamin C is effective on its own, the addition of citrus bioflavonoids is considered its natural partner. Bioflavonoids, found alongside vitamin C in nature, can support its action. They help protect vitamin C from oxidation, which may affect its stability in the body. Furthermore, bioflavonoids themselves have antioxidant properties, thus complementing the action of vitamin C. This combination is often chosen by those looking for a comprehensive high-bioavailability vitamin C supplement.

How to Use

It is recommended to take 1 capsule 1 to 2 times daily, preferably with a meal and water. If you have any doubts about the dosage or are taking other medications, it is advisable to consult with a doctor or pharmacist.

Is This Product Right for You?

Swanson Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids is an excellent choice if you are looking for effective immune support but are concerned about stomach irritation. It is suitable for active individuals, those exposed to stress, and anyone who wants to care for the condition of their skin and blood vessels. It is also a great option for the autumn-winter period when the need for vitamin C may increase.

Add to your cart and take care of your immunity comfortably by choosing a stomach-friendly form of vitamin C.
