FAQ's about Vitamin C

How much Vitamin C do I need daily?

The recommended daily allowance varies, but most adults need between 65 and 90mg per day. Needs increase during illness, stress, pregnancy, and for smokers.

Can I take too much Vitamin C?

Vitamin C is water soluble, so excess is excreted rather than stored. Very high doses can cause digestive discomfort in some people, so consistent moderate intake is generally better than large irregular doses.

What are signs of Vitamin C deficiency?

Fatigue, slow wound healing, dry or rough skin, bleeding gums, and frequent illness are all common signs that Vitamin C levels may be low.

Why does Vitamin C deplete during stress?

Stress triggers the release of cortisol, which draws heavily on Vitamin C reserves. The adrenal glands, which produce stress hormones, have one of the highest concentrations of Vitamin C in the body.

How does Food Grown Vitamin C differ from synthetic ascorbic acid?

Synthetic ascorbic acid is an isolated compound. Food Grown Vitamin C is cultivated within a whole food matrix alongside natural cofactors and bioflavonoids, supporting better absorption and utilisation by the body.
