High Strength Vit C 1200mg + Vit D + Zinc Chewables

Nutra-Life High Strength Vitamin C 1200mg combines three of the most well-researched immune nutrients - Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc - in a single daily chewable tablet. Each tablet delivers a high-strength 1200mg dose of Vitamin C alongside Vitamin D3 and Zinc, covering the key nutritional bases for immune resilience, antioxidant protection, and nervous system support.

This formula works by combining ingredients that work through different but complementary pathways to support your body's natural defences. Whether through the colder months, periods of stress, or any time your immune system is working harder than usual, consistent daily supplementation with these three nutrients provides meaningful, practical support.

Beyond immune function, Vitamin C plays a broader role in everyday health - it is required for normal collagen synthesis, supports healthy gums, assists with minor wound healing, and enhances the absorption of iron from plant-based food sources.

• 1200mg Vitamin C per chewable tablet: a high-strength daily dose combining sodium ascorbate (600mg equiv.) and ascorbic acid (600mg) for broad immune and antioxidant support in a single chewable tablet
• Natural orange flavour: a genuinely enjoyable tablet format that makes daily immune supplementation more convenient for those who dislike swallowing tablets
• Immune system support: Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, and Zinc work through different but complementary mechanisms to support immune defence and recovery particularly relevant during winter, periods of stress, or increased immune demand
• Antioxidant protection: Vitamin C provides powerful free radical protection at a cellular level, supporting resilience alongside its direct immune function roles
• Vitamin D3: supports normal immune function, bone health, muscle function, and nervous system health; a nutrient that many people fall short of, particularly during the winter months
• Zinc 10mg elemental: an essential trace mineral for immune cell development, tissue repair, skin health, and recovery during periods of illness or physical stress
• Collagen formation and skin health: Vitamin C is required for normal collagen synthesis, supporting skin integrity, healthy gums, capillary health, and minor wound healing
• Iron absorption support: Vitamin C enhances absorption of non-haem iron from plant-based foods, beneficial for those with higher iron requirements
• Suitable for those who prefer not to swallow tablets: the chewable format makes this accessible for adults who find standard tablets difficult, as well as those who want a more pleasant daily supplement experience

The core formula delivers 1200mg of Vitamin C per tablet across two complementary forms sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid providing a genuinely high-strength daily dose that covers both immune and antioxidant functions. Vitamin C is one of the most studied nutrients in immune health, supporting the production and function of white blood cells, acting as a powerful antioxidant against free radical damage, and playing a foundational role in collagen synthesis, relevant for skin integrity, capillary health, gum health, and minor wound healing. It also enhances the absorption of non-haem iron, making it a useful companion for those eating a plant-based diet or managing iron levels.

Vitamin D3 at 330IU complements the Vitamin C by supporting the immune system through a different pathway regulating immune cell activity and supporting normal immune responses. Vitamin D3 is also important for bone health, muscle function, and nervous system support, and is a nutrient that a significant proportion of people fall short of through the winter months when sunlight exposure is reduced. The Zinc at 10mg elemental rounds out the formula, supporting immune cell development, tissue repair, and recovery during periods of illness or increased physical demand.

The chewable format uses natural orange flavour and natural colour, with a sweetener blend of glucose, fructose, and sucralose to create a pleasant-tasting tablet that does not require water to take. 

How does this differ from the Nutra-Life High Strength Vitamin C 1200mg + Vitamin D + Zinc standard tablet?
The core formula and nutrient doses are essentially the same: 1200mg Vitamin C, 330IU Vitamin D3, and 10mg Zinc per daily serving. The key differences are format and flavour. The chewable is a naturally orange-flavoured tablet that does not need to be swallowed whole, making it a better fit for those who struggle with standard tablets or prefer a more enjoyable supplement format. The standard tablet uses a buffered sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid combination; the chewable uses a slightly different sodium ascorbate split alongside ascorbic acid to achieve the same 1200mg total.

Is 1200mg of Vitamin C safe to take daily?
Yes, for most healthy adults. The New Zealand Upper Tolerable Intake level for Vitamin C is 2000mg per day, and 1200mg sits well within this range. Vitamin C is water-soluble, so the body excretes excess amounts. Those with kidney conditions or a history of kidney stones should consult a healthcare professional before using high-dose Vitamin C supplements.

Why are both sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid used in this formula?
Sodium ascorbate is a buffered, less acidic salt form of Vitamin C that is gentler on the stomach than ascorbic acid alone, particularly at higher doses. Using a combination of both forms delivers the full 1200mg dose while distributing the acidity load, making the formula more comfortable to take daily especially relevant in a chewable format where the tablet has direct contact with the oral cavity and digestive lining.

Is this suitable for children?
This product is formulated for adults. It is not recommended for children under 2 years of age without medical advice. For children over 2, consult a healthcare professional for guidance on appropriate dosing before use.
