About This Product.

Vitamin C-1000 by NOW Foods is a high-dose ascorbic acid supplement providing 1,000 mg of vitamin C per tablet. Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant that the body cannot synthesise on its own, making consistent dietary or supplemental intake essential. It contributes to normal immune function, supports collagen synthesis — relevant for skin, connective tissue, and wound repair — and helps reduce oxidative stress by neutralising free radicals.

This tablet suits a range of people: those with low dietary intake of fruit and vegetables, individuals in periods of high physiological stress such as illness or intense exercise, smokers (who have notably higher vitamin C turnover), and anyone who has confirmed suboptimal status through a blood test. At 1,000 mg per dose, it sits at the higher end of supplemental intake; those with sensitive stomachs may prefer to take it with food, as high-dose ascorbic acid can cause gastric discomfort on an empty stomach.

NOW Foods is a long-established supplement manufacturer with a broad portfolio and a reputation for straightforward, no-frills formulations. This is a practical, well-priced entry point for anyone looking to maintain adequate vitamin C status year-round or to increase intake during periods of greater demand.

Frequently Asked.

Why take 1,000 mg rather than a lower-dose supplement?

The 1,000 mg dose is relevant when dietary intake is consistently low, during illness, periods of intense exercise, or for smokers, whose vitamin C turnover is higher than average. For people with adequate diets, a lower dose may suffice — it is worth reviewing your intake before choosing a dose.

Can I take this on an empty stomach?

High-dose ascorbic acid can cause stomach discomfort in some people when taken without food. Taking the tablet with a meal generally reduces this risk.

Is it safe to take long-term?

Vitamin C is water-soluble, so excess is excreted in urine rather than stored. That said, consistently high doses may increase the risk of kidney stones in susceptible individuals. If you have a history of kidney stones, speak to a clinician before supplementing at this dose.

How long before I notice a difference?

Vitamin C works as an ongoing nutritional support rather than a fast-acting intervention. If you have been genuinely deficient, improvements in energy and skin health may become apparent over several weeks, though individual response varies.

Who should avoid this supplement?

People with haemochromatosis (iron overload) should use high-dose vitamin C with caution, as it enhances iron absorption. Those with kidney disease or a history of oxalate kidney stones should consult a clinician before use.

Solid staple supplement

4 months ago

Been taking these every morning with breakfast for a couple of months now. Nothing flashy, just does the job. I started after a blood test flagged my levels were on the low side. Good value for money, will keep reordering.

Great price for a no-nonsense product

4 months ago

Swapped from a more expensive brand and honestly can't tell the difference. Takes two seconds to add to my morning routine and at £8.99 I'm not going to overthink it.

Good supplement, tablets are quite large

5 months ago

Noticed I'm getting through colds faster than I used to, which is great. My only gripe is that the tablets are pretty big — I do have to wash them down with a fair bit of water. Not a dealbreaker but worth knowing if you struggle with large tablets.

Use these through winter and during heavy training blocks. No stomach issues as long as I take them with food. Reliable and cheap — what more do you want from a vitamin C supplement.

My go-to immune support

6 months ago

A friend recommended these when I mentioned I barely eat fruit. Been taking one daily for about four months. My skin also seems a bit brighter, though that could be coincidence. Either way I'll keep buying them.
