Vitamin C as standard ascorbic acid is not absorbed efficiently in doses above 200mg, as uptake pathways get saturated and blood levels of vitamin C are maintained within a narrow range. Once vitamin C levels in the blood reach a certain level, they do not increase further no matter how much vitamin C is consumed. To increase levels in the body, there needs to be increased movement of vitamin C out of the blood into the cells of organs and tissues, where it is stored and concentrated up to 100x higher than in the bloodstream.
Thanks to PUREWAY-C technology, plant-derived fatty acids microencapsulate vitamin C, and enhance its absorption from the gut into the bloodstream and into cells. This boosts vitamin C levels above what can be easily achieved through food. Super Vitamin C Complex delivers a clinically effective 1000 mg dose that is efficiently absorbed, ideal for intensive support.
