Source Naturals, C-1000, 100 Tablets, Vitamin C 1,000 mg + rose hips 100 mg per tablet

C-1000 from Source Naturals is supplied as tablets in a 100 Tablets package. The verified label identifies Vitamin C 1,000 mg + rose hips 100 mg per tablet. The serving used for the Supplement Facts is 1 Tablet, giving 100 labeled servings per container. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble antioxidant and enzymatic cofactor required for collagen hydroxylation, carnitine synthesis and several monooxygenase reactions. Humans cannot synthesize it and depend on dietary intake. Absorption is saturable, so large single doses do not increase plasma concentrations proportionally. Supplemental vitamin C can raise intake efficiently, but evidence should distinguish correction of inadequate intake from claims of preventing or curing disease. The most useful way to compare this exact product with scientific literature is to match the chemical or botanical form, the declared amount per serving, and the duration of intake. A different extract, salt, delivery system or serving size can produce a different exposure even when two products share a similar front-label name. Mechanistic plausibility is not the same as a demonstrated clinical benefit, and positive findings in one population should not be generalized automatically to every healthy adult. For a single-dominant-ingredient product, the central quality questions are identity, dose, chemical form or standardization, and whether the amount is reasonably comparable with doses used in human research. This keeps the scientific description focused on the actual product rather than extrapolating from unrelated formulations. Product-specific interpretation should also consider total intake from food and other supplements, age, baseline nutritional status, health conditions and concurrent medicines. The formulation may be useful as a convenient way to supply its declared ingredients, but it should not be presented as a treatment, cure or guaranteed outcome.

Take 1 tablet up to 3 times daily, preferably with meals.

Do not use if a tamper-evident seal is broken or missing. Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or managing a medical condition, consult a healthcare professional before use.
