Pharmacist's advice
With this product, only 1 g of powder provides the complete declared serving of 1000 mg vitamin C. Use the included scoop and do not increase the amount casually simply because the supplement comes in powder form.
Pure ascorbic acid may cause stomach discomfort in sensitive people, particularly when taken on an empty stomach. Taking it with a meal may therefore be more practical and is also consistent with the manufacturer's directions.
Vitamin C increases iron absorption. This can be useful when iron is being supplemented, but it is also why particular caution is required in people with disorders involving excessive iron accumulation.
People with kidney disease or a history of kidney stones should not introduce this product without professional assessment, particularly because these conditions are specifically included in the manufacturer's warning.
