Buffered Vitamin C (365 capsules)

Vitamin C capsules are so popular for a reason. The vitamin is involved in numerous processes in our body! In addition to the well-known functions à la “Which vitamins for the immune system?” But there are also some surprises waiting here:

Vitamin C can also help protect your cells from oxidative stress.

You've probably already noticed: Vitamin C capsules can do a lot. So whether you want to take vitamin C specifically for a cold or just want to increase your intake in general, vitamin C supplements could be something for you.
These come in very different forms:

• Vitamin C chewable tablets
• Vitamin C powder
• Vitamin C drops
• Vitamin C tablets
• Vitamin C capsules
• Vitamin C infusion

Which vitamin C is best for you depends on which way you like to take it: powders that are dissolved in water and chewable tablets often taste like orange or lemon. Infusions are more suitable for serious situations and tablets can be difficult to swallow. Drops are easy to dose and capsules are convenient to take on the go and easy to swallow. We ourselves are a big fan of capsules!
A little insider tip: The Combination of iron & Vitamin C Vitamin C increases iron absorption. So if you take iron supplements or simply maintain an iron-rich diet, it may be practical to take vitamin C capsules with the iron supplement or meal.

How much vitamin C do you actually need per day? The DGE recommends: 110 mg per day for adult, healthy men and 95 mg per day for adult, healthy women. Different guidelines apply for children, pregnant women, breastfeeding women and smokers. This need can usually be met through a balanced diet with lots of fruit and vegetables - we remember the well-known “5 a day” rule.

Where is vitamin C in it (except in the vitamin C capsules from Vetain)?
Our favorite vitamin C foods:

• Paprika
• black currants
• Parsley
• Citrus fruits
• Spinach
• Tomatoes
• Cabbage

Very important: The vitamin C content of foods depends on factors such as the time of harvest, storage and processing and more. So if you fry a pepper in the winter that you've had in the fridge for a few weeks, it will contain less vitamin C than a fresh pepper straight from the plant in your own garden.
But not everyone has their own garden and it's not always summer either. Nevertheless, you can get enough vitamin C through a balanced diet if you pay a little attention to your diet.
Some people still choose to supplement vitamin C just to be on the safe side. Especially in stressful times when frozen pizza and toast are often used, you can easily and reliably increase your vitamin C intake.

Did you know: Even though the vitamin C supply is practically always sufficient in industrialized countries today, this was not a given in the past. Problems often arose, especially on long sea voyages without fresh fruit and vegetables. Scurvy also appeared at that time - a deficiency disease that is now almost extinct and was historically associated with inadequate vitamin C intake.
But it's not just too little vitamin C that's bad - there's also too much: if you take in too much vitamin C in the long term, it can lead to a vitamin C overdose. Since the vitamin is water-soluble, the excess is usually simply excreted. However, this should not be taken lightly. So be sure to follow the intake recommendations for vitamin C capsules.

Vetains Vitamin C capsules are a simple and elegant way to increase your vitamin C intake. They contain high-dose vitamin C: Each capsule provides 500 mg of high-quality vitamin C. This corresponds to 625% of the daily requirement (NRV). The vitamin C is buffered in the capsules - more information about this will be available later.

Why should you take vitamin C as a dietary supplement? Of course you can also use one balanced diet Get enough vitamin C, but vitamin C capsules can be a practical option if you want to easily increase your intake without having to chop up extra fruit and vegetables. Of course, the capsules do not replace an occasional apple!

Vetains Vitamin C capsules contain buffered vitamin C.
But what does “buffered” vitamin C actually mean?
For this we have to go back a little: Vitamin C is a substance with a low pH value and is acidic. If you've ever eaten a lot of lemon or sour sweets, you may know that you get stomach upset afterwards because the acid irritates your stomach. This is exactly what can happen if you use unbuffered vitamin C supplements. We certainly don't want that! That's why we buffer our vitamin C so that it is better tolerated.
This simply changes the pH value of the supplement by adding another substance that has a higher pH value and thus “balances” the acidity. This other substance is a base such as calcium. So calcium and vitamin C are simply linked together.
Vetain's vitamin C capsules contain calcium L-ascorbate, which sounds very complicated, but in the end it is actually just vitamin C in combination with calcium. Thanks to this combination, even sensitive people like to use our supplement.

Very important: The buffering has no effect on the effect of the vitamin C capsules. They still have the same features and functions!

Another important question is: ascorbic acid, what is it actually?
Ascorbic acid is simply the chemical name for vitamin C - so if you want to sound particularly smart, you can just talk about your ascorbic acid capsules.
Don't have one yet? Then you can buy your ascorbic acid directly here.

Ascorbate, which we just talked about briefly, is simply the salt of ascorbic acid. It occurs when vitamin C is buffered.
So when you read the word “ascorbate” on a package, you know straight away that the product contains a buffered form of vitamin C. Just like Vetains Vitamin C capsules.
