Vitacost Vitamin C with Rose Hips is a delayed-release formula supplying 500 mg of vitamin C and an extract of rose hips (Rosa canina) per single-tablet serving. This formula gradually releases nutrients into the bloodstream for continual use by the body. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that is not produced or stored by the body, so it must be regularly obtained through diet. Rose hips are the seed pods of the rose plant and are known for their high vitamin C content.

Vitamin C supports the development and repair of the body’s tissues. It is also necessary for the formation of the protein collagen, which the body uses to make skin, tendons, ligaments and blood vessels. Additionally, as an antioxidant, vitamin C can reduce damage caused by free radicals to the body’s cells.

Vitacost Vitamin C with Rose Hips supplies 500 mg of vitamin C plus added rose hips per single-tablet serving in a delayed-release formula. There are 100 servings per bottle, ensuring high quality at a great value. All Vitacost products are laboratory tested to meet FDA standards for identity, purity and composition. They are also tested for heavy metals, microbiology and contaminants, and produced in a NSF Certified facility.
