- Vitamin C is vital in the development of a protein which gives structure to bones, cartilage muscle and blood vessels and it also aids in the absorption if iron. Pretty important really!

Vitamin C is a fantastic immune system booster with a proven modulating action on white blood cells. Not only can it do this, but vitamin C also has an antihistamine activity which can be used to treat allergies such as hay fever, act as a powerful antioxidant to help regenerate vitamin E and also be used to make collagen which is used to form the structures of hair, skin and nails.
When looking to choose a multivitamin that contains vitamin C, the best option is to go for one that contains calcium ascorbate. The alternative is usually the more acidic forms like ascorbic acid which can prevent minerals from the tablet or capsule from being absorbed. When you read the label of the multivitamin, you'll often see that bioflavonoids or hesperidin are also included – this is to help with vitamin C absorption once the tablet has been consumed.
Aside from a multivitamin, vitamin C can also be found in a chewable tablet form on its own, which is quite pleasant to the tastebuds. Many children even see taking vitamin C chewable tablets as a treat because they are so enjoyable!
In many cases, the right levels of vitamin C intake can be achieved with a healthy, balanced diet. However, if for any reason that your diet or lifestyle does not permit this, vitamin C supplements can be easily purchased from a range of great vitamin retailers.
