Vitamin C 250mg Multi-Ascorbate Complex by Terranova

Terranova Vitamin C 250mg, Gentle Non-Acidic Daily Support

Terranova Vitamin C 250mg Multi-Ascorbate Complex is a non-acidic vitamin C formula built around a blend of mineral ascorbates rather than straight ascorbic acid. Each capsule pairs the vitamin C with Terranova's signature Magnifood botanical complex, a small amount of fresh-freeze-dried plant material chosen to complement the nutrient. It's the kind of daily vitamin C we recommend to customers who find standard high-dose ascorbic acid harsh on the stomach.

Why a non-acidic vitamin C matters

Most cheap vitamin C on the shelves is plain ascorbic acid at megadoses. It works, but if you've ever felt that familiar gut churn after a 1000mg fizzy tablet, you already know the downside. Terranova uses a mix of mineral ascorbates (calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc bound to vitamin C) which the body recognises as nutrient salts rather than acid. That's the practical reason this formula tends to suit people with sensitive digestion.

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, and contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, bones, cartilage, gums and blood vessels. It also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Those are the EFSA-authorised roles, and they're the reason a quality daily vitamin C is one of the simplest supplements to keep in your routine.

Who it's for

• Anyone who's had stomach issues with high-dose ascorbic acid
• People wanting a daily vitamin C as part of a winter routine
• Customers who prefer whole-food-style formulas to isolated nutrients
• Vegans and vegetarians (the capsule is plant-based)

What's different about the Terranova approach

Terranova built its reputation on the Magnifood concept. Alongside the 250mg of vitamin C, each capsule carries a small intensified botanical blend selected to sit naturally alongside the nutrient. The dose is deliberately sensible rather than maxed out. We stock Terranova because the formulas are honest about what they do, and the company doesn't pad capsules with cheap fillers. If you're new to the brand, the wider Terranova range is worth a browse.

How to take it

Take one capsule daily with food, or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner. One a day is plenty for routine support. If you're going through a heavier load (lots of training, broken sleep, the usual British winter) two capsules split through the day is a reasonable step up. Pair it well with vitamin D over the colder months. You'll find both in the Immunity range.

What goes well alongside it

Vitamin C plays nicely with most things in a daily stack. A lot of our customers run it alongside a quality vitamin D3, a zinc, and a magnesium for sleep and recovery. If you want a tidy routine without buying everything separately, have a look at the Bundles and Stacks. For broader nutrient cover, the Vitamins and Minerals collection covers the basics.
