Vitamin C Tablet, Chewable. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is used to prevent or treat low levels of vitamin C in people who do not get enough of the vitamin from their diets. Most people who eat a normal diet do not need extra ascorbic acid.

Product Description:

Vitamin C chewable tablets supply ascorbic acid, often partly as sodium ascorbate, in a flavoured tablet that can be chewed rather than swallowed. Vitamin C is required for collagen synthesis, acts as an antioxidant, supports immune cell function and improves absorption of iron from plant foods. Humans cannot make it, so it must come from the diet.

Chewable tablets are used to prevent and treat vitamin C deficiency and are popular with children and adults who dislike swallowing tablets. Supplementation does not prevent colds in most people, although it may slightly shorten them. At high doses vitamin C can cause digestive upset and, in susceptible people, kidney stones. Chewable tablets are acidic and often sweetened, so frequent use can affect tooth enamel; rinsing the mouth afterwards helps. The sodium ascorbate content matters for people on a sodium-restricted diet.

Sourcing notes. Buyers should specify the strength required. Chewable formulation needs acceptable taste, texture and hardness, and the sweetener — sugar, sorbitol or intense sweeteners — should be declared, as it affects labelling for diabetics and children. Ascorbic acid is sensitive to moisture and heat, so packaging and stability testing matter.
