Detailed Benefits of Sustained Release Vitamin C

• Long-term immune system support

Immune system is body's first line of defense. During periods of stress, seasonal changes or intense rhythm, vitamin C demand increases significantly. Sustained release ensures gradual "dripping" of nutrient, so that:
✅ Immune function is constantly supported – useful in maintaining daily resilience
✅ Immune cells benefit from sustained intake – for quick and balanced responses
✅ General well-being is supported without abrupt fluctuations in vitamin C level

• Advanced antioxidant protection against oxidative stress

Free radicals generated by pollution, effort or chaotic nutrition can affect cellular structures. Vitamin C is key antioxidant, capable of donating electrons to neutralize reactive oxygen species and regenerate other endogenous antioxidants. Rose hip integration brings plant polyphenols that work synergistically:
✅ Support for cellular integrity and healthy tissues
✅ Supporting antioxidant "shield" against daily demands
✅ Balanced formula – vitamin C + phytonutrients – for broad-spectrum protection

• Collagen synthesis: skin, gums, bones, cartilage

Collagen is structural protein that provides firmness and elasticity to skin, but also resilience to bones, gums and cartilage. Vitamin C is essential cofactor in proline and lysine hydroxylation – critical steps for functional collagen formation. With C-1000 Sustained Release:
✅ Skin is supported for supple and tonic appearance
✅ Connective tissues receive necessary enzymatic "raw material"
✅ Gums, blood vessels and cartilage benefit from normal maintenance processes

• Metabolic energy and fatigue reduction

Vitamin C contributes to normal energy metabolism and fatigue and tiredness reduction. Additionally, enhances non-heme iron absorption from diet – important aspect for vitality. Sustained release facilitates efficient utilization throughout day:
✅ More stable energy level – useful at work, study or training
✅ Contribution to combating "drop" sensation in second half of day
✅ Nutritional synergy – support for iron utilization in oxidative processes

• Respiratory comfort and seasonal well-being

Seasonal changes bring variations in environmental factors. Vitamin C supports body's natural barriers and balances adaptive responses of mucous membranes:
✅ Support for upper respiratory tract comfort
✅ Support for epithelial barrier and optimal tissue hydration
✅ Antioxidant resources for periods with increased demands

• Sustained release: consistency, efficiency, tolerance

Large vitamin C intake "all at once" may be harder tolerated by some people. Sustained Release form gradually distributes active substance, helping with:
✅ More consistent plasma level – extended utilization window
✅ Better gastric tolerance – gentle profile for sensitive individuals
✅ Practical efficiency – concentrated intake, gradually used by body

• Role in anti-external agent defense and tissue repair

Vitamin C is involved in normal function of phagocytic cells and tissue repair processes after mechanical or oxidative demands. Combined with phytonutrients from rose hips, supports:
✅ Balanced adaptive responses to external factors
✅ Integrity of tissues exposed to environment (skin, mucous membranes)
✅ Physiological processes of cellular regeneration

• Support for cardiovascular health

Oxidative stress can affect vascular endothelium and circulating lipids. Through robust antioxidant intake, vitamin C supports:
✅ Endothelial function and efficient circulation
✅ Oxidative balance of blood lipids
✅ Cardiovascular system well-being in context of active lifestyle

• Rose hips – phytonutrients that intensify formula effect

Rose hip powder (25 mg) adds natural spectrum of polyphenols, carotenoids and organic acids, known for their complementary role in protection against oxidative stress. Alongside vitamin C, contributes to:
✅ Antioxidant synergy – broad spectrum protection
✅ Effect sustainability – gentle support for tissues and collagen
✅ Pleasant organoleptic profile – "botanical" touch in modern formula

• Useful for athletes, active people and intense schedule

Intense physical effort increases free radical production, and collagen is naturally solicited during training. C-1000 Sustained Release provides:
✅ Antioxidant support during preparation and recovery periods
✅ Foundation for maintaining healthy connective tissues (tendons, ligaments)
✅ Metabolic energy and mental clarity on full days

Without gimmicks, without vague promises – just solid nutritional profile, supported by release technology that puts efficiency and tolerance first.

• Functional profile, in brief – why C-1000 SR makes difference

For immunity: consistent intake throughout day
For skin and collagen: essential enzymatic cofactor in collagen formation
For protection: basic antioxidant, synergistic with rose hip polyphenols
For energy: contributes to normal energy metabolism and helps reduce fatigue
For mineral absorption: increases non-heme iron absorption from diet
For tolerance: Sustained Release technology supports digestive comfort

C-1000 Vitamin C Sustained Release, NOW Foods, brings together modern nutritional science and botanical support of rose hips in formula that delivers consistently exactly what your body demands daily: sustained immunity, antioxidant resilience, collagen for strong tissues and energy to carry your plans to completion.
