C-500 Two Stage Timed Release - 250ct 500mg

Did you know that your body doesn't absorb all the vitamin C at one time when you take a supplement? In fact, it can only absorb so much at once and the rest is wasted. That's why Solaray created their Time Released Vitamin C supplement. This unique formula gives you sustained release vitamin C though out the day, so your body can use it to its fullest potential!

Solaray Time Released Vitamin C and how does it work?

Solaray Time Released Vitamin C is a dietary supplement that provides a slow and steady release of vitamin C into the bloodstream. As a result, it helps to maintain levels of this important nutrient throughout the day. Vitamin C is essential for many bodily functions, including immunity, collagen production, and iron absorption. However, it is water-soluble and therefore not stored by the body. This means that it is important to get enough vitamin C through diet or supplementation. Time-released vitamin C supplements like Solaray can help to ensure that you are getting a consistent supply over 12 hours of this important nutrient.

Did you know that Animals produce vitamin C?

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that humans must get from their diet. However, animals are able to produce vitamin C in their liver. In fact, most animals can produce much higher levels of vitamin C than we can. For example, guinea pigs produce about 16 times more vitamin C than humans. Even some fruit flies can produce more than 100 times the amount of vitamin C that we can. This difference is due to a difference in our genetic code. Humans have a mutated gene that prevents us from making vitamin C in our liver. While this mutation may have been beneficial in the past when food was scarce, it now leaves us reliant on dietary sources of vitamin C. As a result, we need to make sure to include foods like citrus fruits and leafy greens in our diet to ensure that we get enough vitamin C or from a dietary supplement.

If we model how much animals need, we would need 5000mg to 50,000mg per day. Now 50,000mgs is a but much for anybody, but 1000 - 5000mgs is manageable, and fortunately Solaray has come out with a time released vitamin C. This time released form releases over 12 hours, giving one the benefits of vitamin C all day long if taken twice a day. You can reap the benefits of sustained blood levels of vitamin C with Solaray brand vitamin C.
