Vitamin C from Acerola capsules
The Acerola plant is also known as the West Indian cherry. The berries resemble cherries, hence the name Acerola cherry. This Acerola fruit is known for its high concentration of natural vitamin C and polyphenols (nutrients). This makes the Acerola plant an antioxidant. Antioxidants are involved in a large number of processes in our body.
Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage and maintaining resistance. Vitamin C is also called the resistance vitamin! In addition to vitamin C, the Acerola fruit naturally contains many other healthy nutrients, including vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and the minerals calcium, phosphorus, iron and magnesium.

What is acerola?
The acerola (Malpighia emarginata) is a shrub or small tree. The fruit resembles a cherry and is therefore also known as West Indian cherry. It is red when ripe. It is a rich source of vitamin C and also contains many minerals and other vitamins, including beta-carotene, lutein, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine, folic acid and pantothenic acid. Acerola originates from Central America, northern South America, Mexico and the Caribbean. Fresh acerola is not available in the United Kingdom.
Blackcurrant and rosehip extract
Blackcurrants and rosehips contribute to better absorption of vitamin C. This is due to the presence of bioflavonoids. Bioflavonoids are plant substances and are also known as vitamin P.
Blackcurrants (Ribes nigrum) are very healthy berries. The berries, or the leaves of the blackcurrant plant, are used in food supplements. The antioxidants and anthocyanins in blackcurrants protect the body against free radicals. Blackcurrants are naturally very rich in vitamin C and contribute to the immune system.
Rosehip
First and foremost, rosehip contributes to immunity due to the enormous amount of vitamin C in the fruit. Rosehip contains twice as much vitamin C as an orange or lemon! Vitamin C is one of the most important vitamins for immunity. In addition to vitamin C, rosehip is also a natural source of vitamin K and the minerals boron, calcium, chloride, chromium, phosphorus, potassium, copper, magnesium, silicon, iron, zinc and sulphur.
Where can vitamin C be found?
Fruit and vegetables are rich in vitamin C, particularly cabbage, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, citrus fruit, kiwis, oranges, berries and strawberries. Potatoes also contain vitamin C, but in smaller quantities.
When should vitamin C be taken?
The body cannot produce vitamin C itself, so it is necessary to get enough vitamin C every day through food.
If you are unable to get enough vitamin C (vitamin C deficiency from food) by eating at least 2 pieces of fruit and 250 grams of vegetables every day, it is advisable to take a dietary supplement to protect against free radicals.
Smokers, heavy drinkers, people with an unbalanced diet or those under stress also have an increased need for vitamin C. This is because more vitamin C is broken down in the body in these cases.
