This Swanson product delivers 500mg of Ascorbic Acid, a standard and effective dose for daily Vitamin C intake. Crucially, it includes 12.50mg of Rose Hips 4:1 extract, which provides natural bioflavonoids and other compounds that are believed to enhance Vitamin C absorption and offer additional antioxidant benefits. This small but significant addition makes it a slightly more comprehensive option than plain ascorbic acid. Consumers often review Swanson favorably for its affordability and product reliability, making this a popular and cost-effective choice.
- Very affordable price per serving, offering excellent value.
- Includes Rose Hips extract, which contains natural bioflavonoids for synergistic benefits.
- Provides an adequate 500mg dosage for daily Vitamin C needs.
- The quantity of Rose Hips extract is relatively low, meaning its primary benefit still comes from the ascorbic acid.
- Ascorbic acid can be acidic for some sensitive stomachs.
