The function of vitamin C
Vitamin C is responsible for the proper functioning of the immune system, skin and connective tissue, blood vessel walls, gums, eyesight, nerves, mood, concentration, sleep and stress management.
Vitamin C plays an important role as an antioxidant in the body (fighting disease-causing free radicals) and stimulates iron absorption.
Colored fruits and vegetables (especially blackcurrants, kiwi, peppers, broccoli and parsley) offer the highest concentration of natural vitamin C. It's best to eat them as soon as you buy them (or as soon as they're picked, if you're lucky), and preferably raw, as vitamin C is not resistant to air, heat and light.
If you do cook them, limit the cooking time or save the cooking water to make soup. Don't forget citrus fruits: lemons, clementines, oranges and grapefruit. Their acidic environment and thick skin protect the vitamin. Drink their juice during the day rather than in the morning on an empty stomach, as their acidity puts a strain on the stomach.
VITAMIN C 500MG UPSA 30 chewable tablets is not a product like any other. Read the package insert carefully before ordering. Keep medicines out of the reach of children. If symptoms persist, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice. Beware of incompatibilities with your current products.

Health Education Council:
This medication is intended to alleviate a temporary state of fatigue.
It is necessary to distinguish normal physical fatigue occurring as a result of a major effort for example and asthenia which is fatigue outside of any effort.
· Fatigue arising from physical exertion is normal: rest is enough to make it disappear.
· Fatigue that does not give in to rest or asthenia is the feeling of not being able to provide an effort before it even began. This fatigue can be the consequence of overwork, of a disease.
Some medications may also cause unusual fatigue: read the package leaflet for medications you are taking and ask for advice from your pharmacist or doctor. But in many cases no precise cause is found.
Fatigue can be manifested by very variable symptoms. This can be a general impression of weakness. But sometimes symptoms can be associated with it such as sleep disorders (insomnia, restless sleep, ...), intellectuals (difficulties of concentration, memory and attention ...), sexual (decreased desire ...) of the character (irritability, pessimism, sadness, demotivation ...).
You can reduce your fatigue by respecting as much as possible the following tips:
· Rest, relax, look for the reasons for your fatigue.
· Practice regular and appropriate physical activity.
· Have a balanced diet (especially avoid alcohol, tobacco, stimulants).
· Find your sleeping rhythm (regular bedtime and sufficient sleeping time).
Seek advice from your pharmacist or doctor in the following cases:
· No improvement after 1 month of treatment.
· Increased feeling of fatigue during treatment.
· Occurrence of new symptoms or unusual symptoms.
