Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg
Universal Nutrition Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg is a Vitamin C supplement intended to support general wellness. Each tablet provides 1 gram of Vitamin C, alongside 110 mg of Citrus Bioflavonoids and 50 mg of Rosa canina L. (Rose Hips). The product contains a total of 3 ingredients with 100% label transparency. Despite the 1000 mg dose, this product received an N+ Score of 42, earning an 'F' grade, as the Vitamin C dosage is considered underdosed compared to clinical research suggesting higher amounts for specific immune or antioxidant benefits. While 1 gram may contribute to daily intake, it may not meet the criteria for optimal clinical efficacy in all contexts. This supplement is best suited for those seeking a basic, buffered Vitamin C source.
