What is natural vitamin C?
Natural vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble water-soluble vitamin that is found in many types of fruit and vegetables. The term L-ascorbic acid stands for the natural form of vitamin Cwhile ascorbic acid is the synthetic form.
Most people turn to dietary supplements containing synthetic ascorbic acid because they are easier to obtain. But it's worth taking a closer look, because natural vitamin C has great health benefits:
The biggest and most important difference between natural vitamin C and ascorbic acid is the bioavailability. Bioavailability refers to the ability of a nutrient to be easily absorbed and utilized by the body. High bioavailability therefore means that the body can metabolize a substance optimally. In terms of bioavailability, natural vitamin C proves to be far better than the synthetic form. With the natural variant, our body can ideally benefit from the entire mode of action of vitamin C.

What effect does natural vitamin C have on the body?
Scientists have been working intensively on the effects of vitamin C on the human organism for a long time. We would like to present some of the results of this research to you here:
1. vitamin C ensures a strong immune system & protects against colds
According to one study, vitamin C significantly stimulates the immune system by improving the body's resistance and protection. The vitamin also increases resistance to germs, which means that viruses and bacteria are better warded off and the white blood cells are protected. A lack of vitamin C, on the other hand, significantly reduces the body's resistance to certain viruses and bacteria.
➤Did you know that vitamin C can also improve the absorption of iron from plant foods? This ability also supports the body's defense against pathogens.
2. natural vitamin C effectively prevents premature skin ageing and tightens the connective tissue
The body also needs vitamin C to formation of collagen. Collagen is an important protein that is primarily needed to build up the skin, cartilage tissue, tendons and ligaments as well as blood vessels. As soon as not enough collagen is produced, this leads to premature skin ageing and the skin loses its firmness and freshness more quickly.
Vitamin C not only improves the formation of collagen, but also has a supportive effect on wound healing. wound healing and the formation of scar tissue.
3. vitamin C is one of THE key elements against cardiovascular diseases
Scientists have repeatedly confirmed that vitamin C has an important influence on heart health and other related aspects - from blood pressure to the condition of the inner walls of the blood vessels.
Vitamin C also acts as a powerful antioxidantthat binds free radicals before they can attack and destroy the cells. If there are more free radicals in the body than antioxidants, oxidative stress occurs. In this context, the link between oxidative damage, inflammation and arteriosclerosis is becoming increasingly important. arteriosclerosis is increasingly becoming the focus of research. It is therefore hardly surprising that the vitamin is regarded as one of the key elements for protection against cardiovascular disease.
4. a sufficient intake of vitamin C significantly improves physical performance and strengthens muscles
This applies to older people as well as athletes. Taking capsules with natural vitamin C can increase the oxygen supply during physical training. Some studies have also shown a reduction in blood pressure.
Taking vitamin C can also before physical exertion, such as running a marathon, can also prevent upper respiratory tract prevent upper respiratory tract infections. These illnesses are observed more frequently in the course of such exertion. Vitamin C also has the ability to function of the lungs and airways improve.
5. natural vitamin C alleviates the symptoms of allergies and hay fever
Vitamin C is not only a miracle cure for strengthening and protecting the immune system, it can also can also alleviate the severity of a wide range of allergy symptoms. Allergic reactions occur in many people due to an increased immune response of the body to certain substances. In the process histamines are released, which attack the receptors of the blood vessels. As a result, the blood vessels dilate and symptoms such as swelling, mucus formation, redness and itching can occur. Vitamin C acts here as a natural anti-histamine, by destroying histamines so that fewer of them circulate in the blood and the allergic reactions are significantly weaker.
Do you perhaps even have a vitamin C deficiency? You can recognize it by these symptoms!
A vitamin C deficiency manifests itself in various ways. The first signs and symptoms are very general and are therefore often not immediately noticeable:
- Rapid appearance of bruising
- Swollen gums
- Bleeding gums
- Slow wound healing
- Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums)
- Dry, brittle hair
- Dry, reddened areas of skin
- Dewy, dry, flaky skin
- Nosebleed
- Weakened immune system
- Digestive disorders such as leaky gut syndrome and various autoimmune diseases
- Possible weight gain due to a slowed metabolism
- Swollen, painful joints
In the long term, however, a vitamin C level that is permanently too low is extremely harmful and should definitely be taken seriously.
Because undetected, such a deficiency can lead to serious illnesses over time. The long-term effects of a permanently low intake of vitamin C include
- High blood pressure
- Diseases of the gallbladder
- Stroke
- Certain types of cancer
- Arteriosclerosis
➤You have probably heard of the disease "scurvy" - also known as the typical "sailor's disease". Scurvy is caused by a lack of vitamin C.
This disease is based on the breakdown of collagen. You then feel exhausted and lethargic. Scurvy also affects the bones, reduces muscle strength and suppresses the immune system. Nowadays, this disease only occurs very rarely because even small amounts of vitamin C have a preventive effect.
Why it is not so easy to cover the daily requirement of vitamin C through a balanced diet
People who generally eat too few vegetables and fruit may not be sufficiently supplied with vitamin C.
There are also various health conditions that can reduce the absorption of vitamin C: Injuries or disorders of the digestive tract, genetic diseases, kidney diseases or certain types of cancer can not only block the absorption of vitamin C, but also that of other important nutrients.
According to the DGE (German Nutrition Society), the recommended daily intake of vitamin C is 110 mg for men and 95 mg for women.
In principle, two oranges or a red bell pepper are enough to cover your daily vitamin C requirements - both foods are very good sources of vitamin C. But sometimes even that is not enough. But sometimes even that is not enough: light, oxygen, storage and preparation are factors that lead to that the vitamin in food is almost completely lost is lost almost completely. So we can't necessarily rely on our diet to cover our vitamin C requirements. Natural food supplements are therefore ideal for ensuring that we get sufficient amounts of this essential vitamin every day.
➤ Just one capsule of natural vitamin C from Herbano contains twice the recommended daily requirement. So you can be sure that your body is always adequately supplied.
And don't worry - it is not possible to overdose on vitamin C, as it is a water-soluble vitamin. What is not needed is automatically excreted from the body.
Convincing reasons why you should prefer natural vitamin C
Our capsules with natural vitamin C contain extracted vitamin C from the acerola cherry, which has a particularly high content of the vitamin.
Vitamin C from acerola extract in combination with calcium ascorbate forms a powerful team. Calcium ascorbate is a buffered vitamin C. This form is neutral, particularly suitable for sensitive stomachs and has a high bioavailability. Another positive aspect is that it does not affect the acid-base balance. Buffered vitamin C is therefore ideal for older people, pregnant women and people under a lot of stress.
➤Beware of inferior products! Many vitamin C supplements are very cheap, but don't offer you much in return.
If you study the back of the packaging, you will quickly realize that these products mainly contain fillers and anti-caking agents. And the effective vitamin is usually contained in such a negligible dosage that it cannot have any effect.

Most people turn to dietary supplements containing synthetic ascorbic acid because they are easier to obtain. But it's worth taking a closer look, because natural vitamin C has great health benefits:
The biggest and most important difference between natural vitamin C and ascorbic acid is the bioavailability. Bioavailability refers to the ability of a nutrient to be easily absorbed and utilized by the body. High bioavailability therefore means that the body can metabolize a substance optimally. In terms of bioavailability, natural vitamin C proves to be far better than the synthetic form. With the natural variant, our body can ideally benefit from the entire mode of action of vitamin C.

What effect does natural vitamin C have on the body?
Scientists have been working intensively on the effects of vitamin C on the human organism for a long time. We would like to present some of the results of this research to you here:
1. vitamin C ensures a strong immune system & protects against colds
According to one study, vitamin C significantly stimulates the immune system by improving the body's resistance and protection. The vitamin also increases resistance to germs, which means that viruses and bacteria are better warded off and the white blood cells are protected. A lack of vitamin C, on the other hand, significantly reduces the body's resistance to certain viruses and bacteria.
➤Did you know that vitamin C can also improve the absorption of iron from plant foods? This ability also supports the body's defense against pathogens.
2. natural vitamin C effectively prevents premature skin ageing and tightens the connective tissue
The body also needs vitamin C to formation of collagen. Collagen is an important protein that is primarily needed to build up the skin, cartilage tissue, tendons and ligaments as well as blood vessels. As soon as not enough collagen is produced, this leads to premature skin ageing and the skin loses its firmness and freshness more quickly.
Vitamin C not only improves the formation of collagen, but also has a supportive effect on wound healing. wound healing and the formation of scar tissue.
3. vitamin C is one of THE key elements against cardiovascular diseases
Scientists have repeatedly confirmed that vitamin C has an important influence on heart health and other related aspects - from blood pressure to the condition of the inner walls of the blood vessels.
Vitamin C also acts as a powerful antioxidantthat binds free radicals before they can attack and destroy the cells. If there are more free radicals in the body than antioxidants, oxidative stress occurs. In this context, the link between oxidative damage, inflammation and arteriosclerosis is becoming increasingly important. arteriosclerosis is increasingly becoming the focus of research. It is therefore hardly surprising that the vitamin is regarded as one of the key elements for protection against cardiovascular disease.
4. a sufficient intake of vitamin C significantly improves physical performance and strengthens muscles
This applies to older people as well as athletes. Taking capsules with natural vitamin C can increase the oxygen supply during physical training. Some studies have also shown a reduction in blood pressure.
Taking vitamin C can also before physical exertion, such as running a marathon, can also prevent upper respiratory tract prevent upper respiratory tract infections. These illnesses are observed more frequently in the course of such exertion. Vitamin C also has the ability to function of the lungs and airways improve.
5. natural vitamin C alleviates the symptoms of allergies and hay fever
Vitamin C is not only a miracle cure for strengthening and protecting the immune system, it can also can also alleviate the severity of a wide range of allergy symptoms. Allergic reactions occur in many people due to an increased immune response of the body to certain substances. In the process histamines are released, which attack the receptors of the blood vessels. As a result, the blood vessels dilate and symptoms such as swelling, mucus formation, redness and itching can occur. Vitamin C acts here as a natural anti-histamine, by destroying histamines so that fewer of them circulate in the blood and the allergic reactions are significantly weaker.
Do you perhaps even have a vitamin C deficiency? You can recognize it by these symptoms!
A vitamin C deficiency manifests itself in various ways. The first signs and symptoms are very general and are therefore often not immediately noticeable:
- Rapid appearance of bruising
- Swollen gums
- Bleeding gums
- Slow wound healing
- Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums)
- Dry, brittle hair
- Dry, reddened areas of skin
- Dewy, dry, flaky skin
- Nosebleed
- Weakened immune system
- Digestive disorders such as leaky gut syndrome and various autoimmune diseases
- Possible weight gain due to a slowed metabolism
- Swollen, painful joints
In the long term, however, a vitamin C level that is permanently too low is extremely harmful and should definitely be taken seriously.
Because undetected, such a deficiency can lead to serious illnesses over time. The long-term effects of a permanently low intake of vitamin C include
- High blood pressure
- Diseases of the gallbladder
- Stroke
- Certain types of cancer
- Arteriosclerosis
➤You have probably heard of the disease "scurvy" - also known as the typical "sailor's disease". Scurvy is caused by a lack of vitamin C.
This disease is based on the breakdown of collagen. You then feel exhausted and lethargic. Scurvy also affects the bones, reduces muscle strength and suppresses the immune system. Nowadays, this disease only occurs very rarely because even small amounts of vitamin C have a preventive effect.
Why it is not so easy to cover the daily requirement of vitamin C through a balanced diet
People who generally eat too few vegetables and fruit may not be sufficiently supplied with vitamin C.
There are also various health conditions that can reduce the absorption of vitamin C: Injuries or disorders of the digestive tract, genetic diseases, kidney diseases or certain types of cancer can not only block the absorption of vitamin C, but also that of other important nutrients.
According to the DGE (German Nutrition Society), the recommended daily intake of vitamin C is 110 mg for men and 95 mg for women.
In principle, two oranges or a red bell pepper are enough to cover your daily vitamin C requirements - both foods are very good sources of vitamin C. But sometimes even that is not enough. But sometimes even that is not enough: light, oxygen, storage and preparation are factors that lead to that the vitamin in food is almost completely lost is lost almost completely. So we can't necessarily rely on our diet to cover our vitamin C requirements. Natural food supplements are therefore ideal for ensuring that we get sufficient amounts of this essential vitamin every day.
➤ Just one capsule of natural vitamin C from Herbano contains twice the recommended daily requirement. So you can be sure that your body is always adequately supplied.
And don't worry - it is not possible to overdose on vitamin C, as it is a water-soluble vitamin. What is not needed is automatically excreted from the body.
Convincing reasons why you should prefer natural vitamin C
Our capsules with natural vitamin C contain extracted vitamin C from the acerola cherry, which has a particularly high content of the vitamin.
Vitamin C from acerola extract in combination with calcium ascorbate forms a powerful team. Calcium ascorbate is a buffered vitamin C. This form is neutral, particularly suitable for sensitive stomachs and has a high bioavailability. Another positive aspect is that it does not affect the acid-base balance. Buffered vitamin C is therefore ideal for older people, pregnant women and people under a lot of stress.
➤Beware of inferior products! Many vitamin C supplements are very cheap, but don't offer you much in return.
If you study the back of the packaging, you will quickly realize that these products mainly contain fillers and anti-caking agents. And the effective vitamin is usually contained in such a negligible dosage that it cannot have any effect.
