Product Information
For some people, when they take Vitamin C in its pure basic form of ascorbic acid it may cause some gastric upset due to its acidic nature.

These tablets are therefore gentle on the stomach and ideal for those with delicate digestions, or for anyone taking large amounts of Vitamin C.

After searching the internet many times I came across an article recommending Vit C as an aid to reducing the symptoms of tennis elbow which I have had for two and a half years despite seeing a physio and two chiropracters. Vit C is involved in the making of collagen which is found in the tendons which in tennis elbow are inflamed. While I take with a pinch of salt much I read on the internet I thought to try Vit C and am pleased to say I have had a slight improvement in the condition and will continue taking it.

I decided to try this product as I have a very sensitive stomach, and I wanted to be able to take a larger daily dose of Vitamin C. I have osteoporosis, and prefer to treat myself with Vitamins and minerals, rather than other medication.
