C-1000 Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids 250 mg: Powerful Immunity, Antioxidants & Collagen – Gentle Formula with Acerola & Rutin for Absorption & Microcirculation

C-1000 Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids, Now Foods is a premium formula designed to support immune system, antioxidant defense and collagen synthesis, while maintaining gastric comfort. Each serving provides Vitamin C 1 g (1,000 mg, 1111%, from calcium ascorbate), Calcium 100 mg (8%), Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex 250 mg, Acerola Powder 50 mg and Rutin Powder (Sophora japonica) 50 mg. The "buffered" form (calcium ascorbate) reduces acidity, being gentler on the stomach than plain ascorbic acid, and co-formulation with bioflavonoids, acerola and rutin provides phyto-nutritional synergy for absorption, stability and fine circulatory action.

Vitamin C is a key cofactor in pro-collagen hydroxylation (for skin, bones, cartilage, vessels), regenerates other endogenous antioxidants and supports immune function against daily demands. Bioflavonoids from citrus and rutin support microcirculation and capillary permeability, while acerola, rich in phytonutrients, completes the natural "matrix" of vitamin C.

Detailed Benefits of C-1000 Buffered Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids

• Supporting immunity and defense response

An efficient immune system needs essential cofactors:
✅ Vitamin C 1,000 mg supports normal immune system function, both in preparation phases and rapid response
✅ Contributes to maintaining mucosal barrier and defense cell "vigilance"
✅ Suitable during busy periods, seasonal changes or intense schedules

• Broad-spectrum antioxidant protection

Oxidative stress affects lipids, proteins and DNA:
✅ Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals and regenerates antioxidants (e.g. vitamin E)
✅ Citrus Bioflavonoids 250 mg and Rutin 50 mg complete antioxidant network, supporting cellular resilience
✅ Acerola 50 mg adds natural polyphenols and carotenoids

• Collagen, skin, bones and vessels – beauty and strength from within

Vitamin C is cofactor for prolyl- and lysyl-hydroxylases, key enzymes in collagen formation:
✅ Supports skin elasticity and firmness and joint comfort
✅ Contributes to bone structure, teeth and gums
✅ Helps vessel integrity, with support from rutin for capillaries

• Gastric comfort and bioavailability through calcium ascorbate

The "buffered" form is appreciated for tolerance:
✅ Calcium ascorbate has reduced acidity, being gentler on the stomach
✅ Simultaneous calcium 100 mg (8%) intake, useful in daily diet
✅ May be preferred by people sensitive to classic supplement acidity

• Iron absorption and energy metabolism

Vitamin C contributes to key nutrient transformations:
✅ Increases iron absorption from non-heme dietary sources
✅ Supports normal energy metabolism and fatigue reduction
✅ Amplifies nutrient utilization during demanding periods

• Microcirculation and capillary comfort

Bioflavonoids and rutin have affinity for endothelium and capillaries:
✅ Rutin 50 mg – supports capillary permeability and tone
✅ Citrus Bioflavonoids 250 mg – strengthen antioxidant action at vascular level
✅ Contribute to "finer" peripheral circulation, with comfort sensation

• Respiratory and seasonal transitions

When cold season brings challenges, antioxidant hygiene matters:
✅ Vitamin C supports local defense at upper respiratory tract level
✅ Helps with daily comfort during periods with temperature variations
✅ Complements balanced lifestyle (hydration, sleep, movement)

• Recovery after effort and stress adaptation

Intense physical effort and mental stress increase antioxidant needs:
✅ Vitamin C contributes to protection against effort-induced oxidative stress
✅ Supports recovery and perception of constant energy
✅ Synergy with bioflavonoids provides additional "shield" for tissues

• Botanical synergy: bioflavonoids + acerola + rutin

A coherent phyto-nutritional matrix maximizes effects:
✅ Citrus Bioflavonoids may support absorption and vitamin C stability
✅ Acerola brings complementary phytonutrients to antioxidant profile
✅ Rutin provides capillary specificity, completing circulatory picture

• Transparency and quality in dosing

Ingredient profile is clear and easy to integrate:
✅ Vitamin C 1,000 mg (1111%) from calcium ascorbate – powerful, yet gentle
✅ Calcium 100 mg (8%) – supportive intake
✅ Bioflavonoids 250 mg + Acerola 50 mg + Rutin 50 mg – antioxidant and vascular synergy
✅ Without unnecessary ingredients, focused on functionality

• Who can benefit from the supplement's qualities?

• People wanting immune support and antioxidant defense in modern life rhythm
• Those concerned about skin, bones, gums and vessels through collagen synthesis
• Active people or those with intense schedules, seeking recovery and constant energy
• Those sensitive to acidity, preferring gentle buffered form on stomach
