To support the natural synthesis of collagen by our body and our skin, so it's also a skincare and anti-ageing vitamin.
To combat oxidative stress, which is responsible for premature ageing of the skin.
For people with increased antioxidant needs : exposure to pollution, sun, tobacco, stress, intense physical exercise…
For athletes : to promote recovery, combat oxidative stress induced by exercise, maintain good immunity…
In cases of anaemia : vitamin C encourages the body to absorb iron, so it is useful in combination with iron-rich foods in cases of iron deficiency.

Vitamin C is recognised for the following properties, which have been validated by the EFSA (European Food Standard Agency) helps and contributes to:
reduce fatigue.
normal functioning of the immune system.

Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, plays an important role in many physiological processes in the body. In particular, it is involved in the natural synthesis of collagen in our connective tissues, helping to maintain the structure of our skin, gums and bone.
Vitamin C also plays a protective role thanks to its powerful antioxidant effects: it helps combat oxidative stress caused by free radicals, which are involved in the ageing of our tissues. These free radicals form naturally in the body, particularly during the process of oxidising carbohydrates and lipids in our cells to produce energy, and their presence is necessary for many physiological mechanisms. Our bodies have defences in place to prevent these free radicals from causing damage, including antioxidant enzymes and various antioxidants provided by our diet. However, in certain situations, oxidative stress can become excessive, increasing the need for antioxidants. Exposure to UV rays, smoking, pollution, chronic stress and intense physical exercise all generate free radicals in our bodies.
Thanks to its antioxidant effects and its benefits for collagen synthesis, vitamin C is an essential vitamin for combating the signs of ageing, preventing skin slackening and reducing the formation of pigmentation spots.
Vitamin C is also a prime ally in the recovery process for athletes: it helps combat the oxidative stress generated by exercise, supports healthy collagen synthesis in the joints and cartilage, boosts immunity which can be weakened by intense exercise, and helps maintain energy levels in the body.
The effects of vitamin C on immunity are also well known: it is therefore recommended as a course of treatment from the start of winter, but can also be taken at any time of the year, particularly during periods of stress when the body's natural defences may be weakened.
Widely reputed to be the vitamin that boosts energy and vitality, vitamin C is also ideal for temporary fatigue, thanks to its effect on energy metabolism.
Which foods are richest in vitamin C?
Vitamin C is found in many fresh fruits and vegetables. Among the best sources of vitamin C are kiwi fruit, peppers, blackcurrants, parsley, citrus fruit and raw cabbage. Vitamin C is also found in significant quantities in superfoods such as Acerola powder and Baobab fruit pulp.
Taking a food supplement such as Optimised Vitamin C Powder will provide a higher, measured dose of vitamin C to supplement your diet at times when your body needs a boost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Vitamin C can be combined with any other food supplement, as long as it does not also contain vitamin C (to avoid accumulating doses). The following combinations are particularly interesting:
Combine Marine Collagen with vitamin C to combat skin ageing. Vitamin C helps our skin form collagen, and Marine Collagen provides the amino acids essential for collagen synthesis.
To support natural immunity, vitamin C is ideally combined with vitamin D3, which is also essential for healthy immune function.
In the event of temporary fatigue, Vitamin C can be combined with Magnesium, Spirulina and/or adaptogenic plants, such as Brazilian Ginseng, Maca powder, Ashwagandha etc.
To help athletes recover, we particularly recommend taking marine collagen combined with vitamin C and magnesium.
Liposomal vitamin C is a form in which ascorbic acid (vitamin C) has been encapsulated in liposomes, i.e. microscopic vesicles made of lipids. These liposomes ensure high bioavailability of vitamin C thanks to the affinity of the lipids with the body's cell membranes.
In PureWay-C® Optimised Vitamin C, ascorbic acid is also combined with a plant lipid complex, which also optimises vitamin C bioavailability.
So there are 2 different technologies working towards the same goal, which is to optimise vitamin C absorption. The benefit of PureWay-C® optimised vitamin C in powder form is that it allows you to take high-dose vitamin C treatments. In addition, liposome formation for liposomal vitamin C requires a higher quantity of lipids to form the vesicles, which naturally limits the proportion of vitamin C in the final product.
Vitamin C can be taken at any time of day. However, for best absorption, it is generally advisable to take vitamin C with food, for example in the morning with breakfast. It can also be taken in the evening. If you are taking the maximum dose of 2 measuring spoons (1 g) per day, it is advisable to divide it up
No, contrary to popular belief, vitamin C has no stimulating effect and will not prevent you from sleeping. Vitamin C helps to fight fatigue, but does not have a stimulating effect, unlike caffeine (which is sometimes added to vitamin C food supplements and recommended to be taken in the morning).
The nutritional reference value for vitamin C is 80 mg per day. ANSES recommends an intake of 110 mg per day for adults in the general population, increased to 120 mg per day for pregnant women and 170 mg per day for breastfeeding women.
For supplements, doses of 250 to 1000 mg per day are generally recommended. The maximum authorised dose for food supplements in France is 1g (1000mg) per day.
To combat temporary fatigue, to support immunity in winter, or in combination with your marine collagen treatment for skincare, we recommend starting with 500 mg (1 measuring spoon) of PureWay-C® Optimised Vitamin C per day. If you need more, you can go up to 1000 mg (2 measuring spoons) of PureWay-C® Optimised Vitamin C per day.
Very good
Impossible to find the measuring spoon. It's so small that I just saw it at the bottom of the packaging. I would not recommend this product.
After 2 weeks, I can't notice any effect. Acceptable taste. Not very practical with a small deep bag, a too-short measuring spoon, and large hands.
Pleasant taste. Harder to take than capsules as the measuring spoon is tiny, so you have to put your hand into the sachet, which isn't always easy.
In a glass of water on an empty stomach, it serves as a lemon juice. Dissolves easily. Too soon to say anything about the results.
