The 1000 mg is thus perfect for for our consumption. The normal RDA is 75-90 mgs a day and unless you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables it would be hard to get all the required. According to WebMd, we would have to get here are all the foods and beverages you'd need to consume to reach 500 milligrams (mg): Cantaloupe, 1 cup (8 ounces): 59mg Orange juice, 1 cup: 97mg Broccoli, cooked, 1 cup: 74mg Red cabbage, 1/2 cup: 40mg Green pepper, 1/2 cup, 60mg Red pepper, 1/2 cup, 95mg Kiwi, 1 medium: 70mg Tomato juice, 1 cup: 45mg.

Rose hips are the round portion of the rose flower just below the petals. Rose hips contain the seeds of the rose plant. Dried rose hips and the seeds are used together to make medicine. Fresh rose hips contain a lot of vitamin C, so they share many uses with vitamin C including preventing and treating colds, flu, and vitamin C deficiencies. However, much of the vitamin C in rose hips is destroyed during drying and processing and also declines rapidly during storage. Because of this, many rose hip-derived "natural" vitamin C products have actually been fortified with lab-made vitamin C, but their labels may not always say so. Rose hips are also used for stomach disorders including stomach spasms, stomach acid deficiency, preventing stomach irritation and ulcers, and as a "stomach tonic" for intestinal diseases. They are also used for diarrhea, constipation, gallstones, gallbladder ailments, lower urinary tract and kidney disorders, fluid retention (dropsy or edema), gout, back and leg pain (sciatica), diabetes, high cholesterol, weight loss, high blood pressure, chest ailments, fever, increasing immune function during exhaustion, increasing blood flow in the limbs, increasing urine flow and quenching thirst. In foods and in manufacturing, rose hips are used for tea, jam, soup, and as a natural source of vitamin C.

excellent great quality

Great source of vitamin c at a fair price

I have no idea if this is doing anything for me but I trust that it is. I like that there's one pill per serving. I am so sick of vitamins where it's labeled "1000mg" but then the fine print says "One serving of six pills= 1000mg" or something, y'know? It's easy to figure out how many to take and less hassle to swallow them all, with a nice simple 1000mg pill, & easier to calculate how long a bottle will last. I do believe the extra stuff in these helps the VitC absorb better but I'm no nutritionist. The price is good. It has a flip-top so they're easy to get out. I'm pleased. I'll likely buy these again.

Using it and want to buy more
