About Vitamins.co.nz Clinicians Hi-Dose Vit C

Clinicians Hi-Dose Vit C is a potent buffered formulation containing 2 forms of Vitamin C that may effectively support the immune system in times of stress.

Studies indicate that frequent high dosing with vitamin C can significantly shorten the recovery time when the body's defenses are under attack. This appears to be true for both oral and intravenous vitamin C administration.  In addition to supporting recovery, these high-dosing regimes may also support quicker recovery times.

In order to get the full benefit of this regime, you should dose to bowel tolerance. Bowel tolerance is reached when the following symptoms occur; bowel discomfort, distention, diarrhoea and flatulence. Individual requirements for vitamin C may vary depending on severity of illness and levels of stress and higher dosing may be required during these times.
