I really love this Vitamin C with Rose Hips. I take it daily as a supplement. The price is great and the quality wonderful. In our house, when we feel a cold or flu bug coming on, we take this three times per day along with garlic oil capsules. It works like magic on our immune system - usually the bug is gone in three days!

Swansons makes a variety of vitamin products at a consistently low price and is a reputable company that guarantees its quality. I have taken Swansons vitamins for several years and I appreciate their variety and low prices.

This product is a very potent Vitamin C product with Rose Hips (an alternate form of vitamin C). 1,000 mg of Vitamin C is many times the RDA of Vitamin C. Fortunately, Vitamin C is water soluble and will not build up in your body like the fat soluble vitamins. Any excess Vitamin C will simply be excreted in the urine.

I use the 1 gram form of Vitamin C when I am sick or need healing, such as a wound or post-surgery. Vitamin C is a precursor of collagen, the body's building block protein. Having enough Vitamin C is crucial in healing situations.
