Probably the best vitamin C capsules on the market

These capsules have it all. In addition to calcium ascorbate, the particularly well-tolerated and buffered vitamin C, we also rely on camu camu, rosehip extract and acerola powder, i.e. the best, natural sources of vitamin C that nature has to offer.

Why do we need vitamin C in the first place?

Since the human body can't make vitamin C on its own, you need to provide it to it through your diet. Vitamin C is an antioxidant. ... Vitamin C is also needed for the production of collagen (= protein in connective tissue). In addition, for the formation of cartilage and bone tissue.

How much vitamin C "must" be taken?

Normal people who don't do sports and are healthy don't actually need to take vitamin C at all. Since you are on our website, you are probably an athlete or someone who knows a lot about the subject. Therefore, a few different rules apply to you:

The recommended daily dose of vitamin C is between 100-200mg. Such small doses are easily covered by a balanced and healthy diet. However, the situation is different for athletes or for shortening the duration of a cold. Here we are then talking about up to 2,000mg (2g) a day. It is not possible to cover such a quantity through the diet

To get 100-200mg of vitamin C you would have to eat the following:

• approx. 4-7 apples
• about 1-2 bell peppers
• 1/2 - 1 kiwi
• 2-4 lemons

Or just a colorful mixture of everything. In short, it is quite feasible, as long as you eat a conscious and balanced diet.

Now we come to the athletes or when it comes to shorten a cold. Here we are talking about 2000mg a day:

• about 150 apples
• 1,4kg peppers
• 4kg lemon
• let's leave it ;)

As you can see, in higher dosages it is no longer possible to cover one's vitamin C needs only through food. Exactly at this point, nutritional supplements come into play. And ONLY then! Because you should ALWAYS try to meet your nutrient needs through real food.

The Perfect Vitamin C Blend

In our vitamin C capsules from #sinob Pharmaline, we rely on the best 4 sources of vitamin C.

1. Calcium ascorbate
2. Camu-Camu
3. Acerola cherry
4. Rosehip

As you could see from the table above, these natural vitamin C sources have been naturally infused with the highest natural amount of vitamin C. To be honest, though, that's not why we chose these sources. Rather, it's the phytochemicals found in natural sources.

The fact is, your body doesn't care if the ascorbic acid (vitamin C) comes from a lemon, bell bell pepper, or rosehip powder or from a synthetic source. Your body doesn't even know the difference. The decisive factor is the secondary plant substances that every natural source of vitamin C brings with it. Because it is precisely these that act synergistically and thus improve the absorption of vitamin C in your body. This fact is exactly the reason why we have added natural vitamin C sources to our vitamin C capsule product.

Vitamin C buffered and stomach-friendly in the form of calcium ascorbate

Calcium Ascorbate

Since our #sinob PHARMA Line uses only the very best raw materials, the use of simple ascorbic acid was out of the question for us. The cheap and very acidic ascorbic acid is usually used in vitamin C products. If you only need a little vitamin C, simple ascorbic acid causes few problems (otherwise it can lead to diarrhea, heartburn, stomach pain). However, if you need a little more vitamin C and or have a nervous gastrointestinal tract, simple ascorbic acid is not an option for many people.

It is precisely for these people that we have resorted to calcium ascorbate. Here, the vitamin C is virtually bound to calcium and is only converted to the active form in the stomach. Calcium ascorbate is acid-free and therefore optimally tolerated. Even at higher dosages, this form of vitamin C has no effect on the pH value of your stomach acid.

Camu-Camu

Have you ever heard of Camu-Camu? Not yet? No problem Even the indigenous people in the Amazon region, where the shrub grows, spurned the fruit because it was far too acidic for them. Only recently have researchers found that camu camu has the very highest natural vitamin C content.

Acerola Cherry

Slightly better known than camu-camu, and also from South America, is the vitamin C-rich acerola cherry. It ranks second among foods with the highest vitamin C content. Although the name sounds similar, the fruit has nothing to do with our native cherries. Since the cherries are extremely delicate, you will rarely see them here in Germany. Mostly you will see powder, jam or drinks with the acerola cherry.

Rosehips

Last but not least, the dog rose or rather its fruits. Ranked 3rd in the world for highest natural vitamin C content, the rosehip. Unfortunately, when boiled down, an extremely large amount of vitamin C is lost, so that jam made from rose hips no longer has 1250mg of vitamin C, but only a measly 50mg. Therefore, our used extract is the much better choice.
