Key Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C is one of the most studied nutrients, and its roles in the body are well recognized. Here are some of the key benefits supported by traditional use:*

• Immune support: Vitamin C contributes to normal immune function by supporting the production and activity of white blood cells.*
• Antioxidant Protection: As an antioxidant, it helps neutralise free radicals that can cause oxidative damage to cells.*
• Collagen Formation: Vitamin C is essential for collagen synthesis, which maintains healthy skin, blood vessels, bones, and connective tissues.*
• Cardiovascular Health: It supports normal blood pressure and blood vessel function.*
• Energy Metabolism: Vitamin C plays a role in normal energy production and the metabolism of fats and proteins.*

Solaray's Super Bio Buffered Vitamin C is designed to maximize these benefits through enhanced absorption and a stomach-friendly formula.

What Makes Solaray's Two-Stage Timed Release Vitamin C Unique?

Unlike standard immediate-release vitamin C, Solaray's two-stage technology releases half the vitamin C right away and the other half gradually over several hours. This helps maintain more consistent levels of vitamin C in the body, prolonging support for immune and antioxidant functions.* The buffered formula with calcium and magnesium reduces acidity, making it gentle on the stomach even when taken without food. The addition of bioflavonoids, acerola, and rose hips provides natural co-factors that may improve absorption and effectiveness.

Types of Vitamin C Supplements

Vitamin C supplements come in various forms. Ascorbic acid is the most common but can be acidic. Buffered vitamin C, like Solaray's, combines ascorbic acid with mineral ascorbates (calcium and magnesium) to reduce acidity. Liposomal vitamin C offers high absorption but at a higher cost. Whole-food sources provide additional phytonutrients but typically have lower vitamin C per dose. Solaray's product offers a balanced approach, combining synthetic and natural sources for both potency and co-factors.

What Is Vitamin C and Why Do You Need It?

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin essential for many bodily functions. It acts as an antioxidant, supports the immune system, and is involved in collagen synthesis. Since the body cannot produce vitamin C, it must be obtained from diet or supplements. Solaray's Super Bio Buffered Vitamin C provides a convenient and effective way to meet your daily needs.
