A well-rounded 500mg chewable Vitamin C from Solgar, featuring a buffered blend for digestive comfort and supporting immune, skin, and general health, with added rose hips and acerola.
Flavour: Orange
Solgar's Cran-Raspberry chewable Vitamin C is formulated to provide comprehensive support for immunity, general health, skin health, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory processes. The blend of Vitamin C forms, specifically Sodium Ascorbate and Calcium Ascorbate alongside L-Ascorbic Acid, makes it a buffered option, which is gentler on the stomach compared to pure ascorbic acid, a common recommendation by nutritionists for those with digestive sensitivities. The addition of rose hips and acerola extract, while in small quantities, offers natural bioflavonoids and antioxidants that may enhance Vitamin C's bioavailability and synergistic effects. The chewable form is highly convenient for individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills, and the natural cran-raspberry flavor generally receives positive feedback in online reviews. With 90 servings per bottle at a competitive price point, it offers good value.
- Contains a blend of buffered and unbuffered Vitamin C forms for optimal absorption and digestive comfort.
- Convenient chewable tablet form, ideal for those who prefer not to swallow pills.
- Includes rose hips and acerola extract as natural co-factors for enhanced benefits.
- Produced by Solgar, a reputable brand known for quality supplements.
- Offers a good price per serving for a quality buffered chewable Vitamin C.
- The quantities of rose hips and acerola extract are relatively low compared to products specifically emphasizing these co-factors.
- Chewable form contains 2g of total carbohydrates per serving, which may be a consideration for certain dietary restrictions.
- Contains 30mg of sodium per serving, which should be noted by individuals on sodium-restricted diets.
- As a chewable, it contains natural flavors and sweeteners (implied by carbohydrates) which may not be preferred by all users.

Acerola 75.0
