- 500 mg of highly bioavailable Vitamin C and naturally derived bioflavonoids
- Lipid-containing form of vitamin C for maximum absorption
- Formula with patented PUREWAY-C® raw material
- Supports the immune system and endogenous collagen production
- Antioxidant and free radical scavenging action.
Vitamin C Chewable is Yamamoto® Research's 500mg patented PureWay-C® vitamin C product, containing lipid metabolites and bioflavonoids from citrus fruits for improved absorption and release, in chewable form. Bioflavonoids are added to the formula to enhance vitamin C absorption.
The innovative PUREWAY-C® patent chosen for Vitamin C Complex is composed of 100% naturally-derived vitamin C combined with bioflavonoids and vegetable fatty acids, extracted from citrus fruits, combined to allow exceptional molecule stability, maximum intestinal absorption and optimal vascular distribution. Thanks to the presence of molecules capable of acting as cofactors, the result is an even more effective and well-tolerated vitamin C in the gastrointestinal tract.
Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is one of the most important water-soluble vitamins for the body and must be taken regularly with food. This vitamin is valuable for its many functions, first and foremost its antioxidant action, which enables the body to combat oxidative stress, free radicals and cellular ageing. It is also involved in several physiological mechanisms:
- It participates as a cofactor in the collagen formation reaction, a very important protein in the structure of skin, bones, ligaments, muscles and vascular tissue
- It has a key function in supporting the immune system and the body's natural defences (it helps the differentiation, maturation and functioning of lymphocytes and protects monocytes and neutrophils from free radical damage)
- It allows intestinal absorption of ‘non-heme’ iron (that contained in plant-based foods) and intervenes in the synthesis of red blood cells, responsible for the body's proper oxygenation
- It is able to reduce the toxicity of certain metals and inhibit the synthesis of carcinogenic compounds (such as nitrosamines).
Thanks to its properties, vitamin C is particularly useful for maintaining skin health, slowing down skin ageing and protecting us from damage caused by UV rays, as well as preventing and counteracting the onset of seasonal ailments and infections.
PureWay-C® as a quality patent
For Chewable Vitamin C, the Yamamoto® Nutrition R D team chose to use the patented PureWay-C®, currently the only source of vitamin C made from a fatty acid formulation scientifically designed to optimise the absorption and retention of this vitamin in the body. The inclusion of naturally-derived lipid metabolites and citrus bioflavonoids in the formula improves both the absorption and release kinetics of ascorbic acid: the lipid metabolites are mixed with vitamin C during its production process and are obtained from safe plant sources.
Furthermore, PureWay-C® is GRAS (‘Generally Recognised As Safe’) certified: its intake is not associated with any of the adverse effects that can occur with the intake of high doses of vitamin C. In studies with PureWay-C® vitamin C, no side effects or stomach upset were observed.Reduction of tiredness and fatigue Growth of maternal tissue in pregnancy

DIRECTION (1 serving = 1 chewable tablet)
Take one tablet daily.
There is no specific time of day when it is best to take Vitamin C Chewable, as this micronutrient can be absorbed by the body effectively at any time. It is in fact a water-soluble vitamin, i.e. it dissolves in water. However, there are some cautions that can be taken to maximise the absorption and utilisation of vitamin C: some experts suggest taking vitamin C with a meal or immediately after a meal, as this can help increase the assimilation of the nutrient. Remember that Vitamin C Chewable is a formulation that can be chewed without diminishing its effectiveness, and has a pleasant citrus flavour.
