KAL Vitamin C 1000 mg Tablets

KAL Vitamin C 1,000 mg Tablet in Pakistan

The Pakistan vitamin C calendar: which fruits are in season, and where a supplement fits

Fruit First

Pakistan has some of the best vitamin C fruit in the world. The challenge is that no single fruit is available all year, and what you actually eat varies by season, budget and habit.

Approximate vitamin C in common fruits and vegetables:

These are rounded estimates. Actual amounts vary by variety, ripeness and storage.

The Seasonal Calendar (Approximate)

Availability varies by region and year, but this gives a general picture.

The gaps: spring is often the lightest season for vitamin C fruit, and many people also eat less fresh produce during busy periods, travel, Ramadan schedule changes, or when budgets are tight. Cooking also reduces vitamin C, since long boiling and frying break it down.

A supplement is a convenient way to fill those gaps, but fresh fruit and vegetables should remain the foundation of your diet.

Where Does 1,000 mg Fit?

A single 1,000 mg tablet is many times the daily requirement, so it is a high-strength product. It suits people who want a larger daily amount, for example during months of low fruit intake. If you already eat plenty of fruit and vegetables, a lower dose may be enough.

The body absorbs vitamin C very well at lower doses and less efficiently as the dose rises. Splitting a large daily intake across the day generally lets your body use more of it.

What Vitamin C Does

Vitamin C contributes to:

• The normal function of the immune system
• Normal collagen formation for skin, gums, bones, cartilage and blood vessels
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress
• The reduction of tiredness and fatigue
• Increased iron absorption from plant foods and supplements

A Pakistani tip: tea reduces iron absorption from daal and other plant foods. Vitamin C helps counter this, so having a vitamin C food, such as a squeeze of lemon on your daal or a piece of fruit, with iron-containing meals is a simple habit.

How to Take It

1. Take [1 tablet daily, or as directed on the label].
2. Take it with food if acidic products upset your stomach.
3. If your doctor advises more than one dose per day, split it between meals.
4. Drink water through the day.

Safety Notes

Talk to a doctor before using high-dose vitamin C if you:

• Have had kidney stones or have kidney disease, since vitamin C can increase oxalate in urine
• Have iron overload conditions such as haemochromatosis
• Have G6PD deficiency
• Are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Take regular prescription medicines
• Are about to have blood tests, since high-dose vitamin C can interfere with some lab and home glucose readings

Too much vitamin C can cause nausea, stomach cramps or loose motions. Keep out of reach of children.
