New Chapter® Vitamin C Immune Defence Supplement + Elderberry – 90 Tablets

Why Choose Vitamin C and Elderberry?

When the seasons shift, your immune system can use a little extra support. New Chapter Vitamin C Immune Defence + Elderberry offers a gentle yet effective way to maintain your body’s natural defenses. The combination of vitamin C and elderberry provides antioxidant protection and immune support, while organic herbs help your body adapt to occasional stress.

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, and elderberry has a long history of traditional use in herbal medicine. This fermented, food-based formula is designed to be easy on the stomach, so you can take it any time—even on an empty stomach.

Selecting the Right Vitamin C for You

When choosing a vitamin C supplement, consider dosage, form, and quality certifications. Each tablet provides 250 mg of vitamin C (278% of the daily value), a moderate maintenance dose suitable for daily use. The product is Non-GMO Project Verified, certified gluten-free by NSF, certified kosher, and 100% vegetarian.

New Chapter’s formula is made from a whole-food fermentation process that creates a vitamin C complex your body recognizes as food. This enhances absorption and reduces stomach discomfort. The addition of organic elderberry and a proprietary blend of organic herbs provides extra immune and stress support that many standard supplements lack.

If you have a sensitive stomach, this fermented form is often better tolerated than straight ascorbic acid. Always check the label for certifications that match your values, and consult a healthcare practitioner for personalised advice.

Understanding Different Vitamin C Forms

Vitamin C supplements come in various forms. Ascorbic acid is the most common and affordable, but it can be harsh on the stomach at higher doses. New Chapter uses a food-based fermentation process that creates a gentle, absorbable complex. Other options include sodium ascorbate (buffered), liposomal vitamin C (for enhanced absorption), and whole-food sources like acerola.

Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) is added for its rich flavonoid content, including anthocyanins, which offer their own antioxidant and immune-supporting properties. This combination is especially popular during cold and flu season.

The Role of Vitamin C in Your Health

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient that humans cannot produce internally. It must come from diet or supplementation. This powerful antioxidant helps neutralize free radicals, supports the immune system, and contributes to normal collagen formation for healthy skin, bones, and blood vessels.

While citrus fruits and vegetables are natural sources, many people choose supplements to ensure consistent intake. New Chapter’s formula combines vitamin C with organic herbs to create a comprehensive daily wellness ally. Beyond immunity, vitamin C plays a role in adrenal function, which may help your body manage occasional stress.

Dosage, Safety, and Storage

The recommended serving is one tablet daily, providing a 90-day supply per bottle. Vitamin C is water-soluble, so excess amounts are typically excreted, but taking more than 2000 mg per day may cause digestive upset for some individuals.

This supplement is intended for adults. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. The formula is gentle enough to take on an empty stomach, but you can take it with food if preferred.
