Question 1

what brand of vitamin c doesn't have bioflavonoids?

Accepted Answer

Why? Likely few/none: Like all vitamins, single molecules found in stuff from nature which humans have long eaten &amp; not maintained every single gene to manufacture out of other molecules (typically missing only 1 of many steps),  vitamin C is routinely harvested in association with dominant other molecules, e.g. from fruit waste in industrial processing. Look up issues on http://en.wikipedia.org Flavonoid &amp; Vitamin C.

Question 2

could nature's bounty vitamin c - 500mg contain bioflavonoids?

Accepted Answer

Vitamin D: Nature's Bounty Vitamin C 500mg Plus Rose Hips and Bioflavonoids  does. But I don't believe the regular vitamin C does.

Question 3

what brands of vitamin c do not contain bioflavonoids or rosehips?

Accepted Answer

Many brands: Many brands of Vitamin C do not contain flavonoids. I recommend Lypospheric C which is much better-absorbed than most forms of C. See http://www.livonlabs.com/cgi-bin/start.cgi/liposome-encapsulated/lypo-spheric-vitamin-c.html
Another good choice is Buffered Vitamin C powder from Allergy Research Group. Pure Encapsulations and Thorne Research also have Ascorbic Acid and Buffered Ascorbic Acid.

Question 4

where do i find foods with vitamin c but without bioflavonoids or rose-hips?

Accepted Answer

Basic biology: Most fresh vegetables and fruits have vitamin c. Rose hips are pulped and added to synthetic vitamin c (manufactured from petroleum) in tiny amounts to give it glamour so the manufacturers can charge an inflated price. Bioflavonoinds are pigments found in plants and aren't going to harm you. You've been done a disservice by 'nutrition' sites; get with an evidenc-based physician / dietician.

Question 5

is vitamin c 1000mg with citrus bioflavonoid complex 100mg safe to take in early pregnancy. a study in italy stated that use of bioflavonoids by the mother during pregnancy has an increased risk of child developing leukemia. is this true?

Accepted Answer

: Why do you want to take those then you have to worry about the adverse effects? Just take one prenatal vitamins a day then you should be fine.

Question 6

is it safe to take vitamin c 1000mg with citrus bioflavonoid complex 100mg in early pregnancy. a study in italy stated that use of bioflavonoids by the mother during pregnancy has an increased risk of child developing leukemia. is there truth to this?

Accepted Answer

: Why are you taking so much vitamin C? I would just stick with the amount found in a standard prenatal vitamin. You can focus on foods rich in vitamin C (fresh fruit) if you want to get extra.

Question 7

i am 32 weeks pregnant. is it safe to take one 1000mg vitamin c with 25mg citrus bioflavonoid and 20mg rose hip caplet daily?

Accepted Answer

Yes: These probably will add nothing to what you get in your regular diet, but they will not harm your developing baby.

Question 8

i did a simple serum iron test for my son of 12, his result was 10.6 he has been on iron meds chelifer 15 mg for about a year... what are the next steps for good absorption other than taking iron tabs with vitamin c ?

Accepted Answer

Diet: Diet with foods with Iron is a great way to absorb Iron.  Good sources of Iron include shellfish, spinach, legumes, red meat, pumpkin seeds, quinoa, turkey, broccoli, Tofu, dark chocolate, fish. Eat up and stay strong.

Question 9

is 1000mg vitamin c a lot?

Accepted Answer

Controversial!: I believe 300mg per day is enough.  Some physicians believe that 1000mg/day is ok. I disagree!

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Many fruits & vegies: Top sources of vitamin c include fruits, especially citrus, papayas, kiwi, strawberries, goji & acai berries, and vegetables, especially peppers, broccoli and kale. See http://www.Healthaliciousness.Com/articles/vitamin-c.Php.
