This clean label supplement has been expertly formulated to provide a gentle and buffered blend of vitamin C, with both sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid. Combining these two forms enhances bioavailability, as absorption can take place via two uptake pathways. Flexible dosing enablessuitable dosing for both kids and adults, for everyday use.

Optimised absorption

Combining two forms of vitamin C (sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid) allows the body to utilise two different uptake pathways. Sodium ascorbate favours uptake via active transport, while ascorbic acid favours uptake via passive diffusion. This dual approach enhances absorption across the intestinal lining into the bloodstream, increasing the amount of vitamin C available to the body.

Clean ingredients

This clean label supplement is free from unnecessary additives and artificial flavours, colours and sweeteners. We use natural orange and lemon flavours, and natural colours from turmeric, paprika and carrot, giving the chewable a subtle colour. It is also sugar-free, containing only tooth-friendly sweeteners as xylitol, sorbitol and stevia. Each batch is tested for purity.

Gentle on the stomach

Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid is buffered with sodium ascorbate, a less acidic alternative to pure ascorbic acid. This buffering process neutralises the acidity of standard ascorbic acid, making it gentler on the stomach and reducing the risk of gut irritation. Unlike pure ascorbic acid, which can cause discomfort in sensitive individuals, sodium ascorbate is better tolerated, especially for kids, and adults with acid reflux or digestive issues.

Immune support

Vitamin C supports immune health by stimulating the production of white blood cells. As a powerful antioxidant, it also protects cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. By supporting collagen production, vitamin C plays a key role in maintaining healthy mucous membranes, which act as a barrier for the immune system.

Skin & collagen

Vitamin C plays a key role in skin health by supporting collagen production, which provides structure, strength and elasticity to the skin. Collagen also helps the body form new connective tissue and supports the normal function of blood vessels. Additionally, vitamin C provides antioxidant support to the skin.

Energy levels

Vitamin C supports energy levels by increasing the body's ability to absorb iron, a key nutrient needed for oxygen transport. It also plays a role in converting food into energy by supporting metabolic processes. Regular intake may help reduce feelings of tiredness and fatigue.

FAQs

Our Vitamin C formulas are designed for superior absorption and comfort compared to standard ascorbic acid. Our Vitamin C Chewables use a buffered 1:1 blend of sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid. This allows the body to use two different uptake pathways, increasing the total amount of Vitamin C that reaches your bloodstream. Standard ascorbic acid can be quite acidic and irritating; by buffering it with sodium ascorbate, we’ve made a formula that is much gentler on the stomach, which is especially helpful for children or those with sensitive digestion. Also, unlike many standard chewables, ours are sugar-free and tooth-friendly, using natural orange and lemon flavours.

Many people take our Vitamin C Chewables alongside other supplements, such as a multivitamin. While multivitamins often already contain Vitamin C, the dose is usually considerably lower, making it safe to take alongside Be kind Vitamin C 500mg Chewable. You can also consider taking them at different times of the day; while vitamin C is water-soluble, very high doses may cause a laxative effect in some people.
