Vitamin C Syrup

Take the recommended dose by age group:

Adults (over 12 years): 10mls (2 metric tsp)
Children (6-12 years): 5mls (1 metric tsp)
Young Children (1-5 years): 1ml ( metric tsp)

Acute support: If unwell, take recommended dose every 3 hours daily.
Daily support: Take recommended dose once daily to support a healthy immune system.

This syrup is delicious straight from the spoon but you could add it to a warm drink (not too hot - heat destroys vitamin C), to your drink bottle or even used as a dessert topping.

The best time to take Vitamin C is generally in the morning with breakfast or shortly after. Taking it with food can help improve absorption and, if you have a sensitive stomach, this can reduce the likelihood of stomach upset (although our Vitamin C is very gentle on the digestive system).

If you're taking Vitamin C to improve absorption of iron, then best to take it with your meals. Avoid taking Vitamin C with tea, coffee or other caffeinated drinks.

If taking medication (including antibiotics), take Vitamin C at least 2 hours before or after.

Each 10ml dose contains:

WILD HARVESTED SEA BUCKTHORN
extract equivalent to fresh berries 144,500mg standardised to contain 650mg Vitamin C (ascorbic acid).

In a syrup base of chicory root fibre, vegetable glycerine, natural flavours, thaumatin, citric acid and water.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient, scientifically researched to support a healthy immune system, especially during illness or stress.

It's also a powerful antioxidant, supporting healthy connective tissue, wound healing and production of collagen, essential for healthy skin, bones and gums.

Vitamin C aids iron absorption, useful for those low on iron or following a vegan diet.
