4. Latest research trends (updated in 2023)
1. A study in a sub-journal of "Nature" pointed out: Large doses of vitamin C (≥1000 mg) may interfere with the effect of cancer treatment, and chemotherapy patients need to be cautious.
2. Japanese scholars have discovered that sustained-release VC tablets can maintain a more stable blood concentration and have a 22% higher bioavailability than ordinary tablets.
3. The Australian team confirmed that vitamin C combined with zinc supplementation can shorten the duration of respiratory infection symptoms by 1.5 days.
5. Consumption warning
1.Price Trap:Testing shows that there is no significant difference in the active ingredients between some imported VC tablets (priced at 200+ yuan/bottle) and domestic products (priced at 20 yuan/bottle).
2.Natural claims:Most of the so-called "naturally extracted" VC tablets still contain synthetic ingredients, and the actual VC content of rosehip extract is less than 5%.
3.Dosage Form Scam:Newer dosage forms such as gummy candies/bubbly tablets often add a lot of sugar, so diabetics need to avoid them.
Summary:As a basic nutritional supplement, vitamin C tablets are indeed valuable in immune support, antioxidant and other aspects, but they need to be supplemented scientifically according to individual needs. Recent research emphasizes "precision supplementation" rather than "large-dose abuse", and consumers should pay attention to ingredients rather than marketing gimmicks.
