## Frequently Asked Questions

### Q: Why is the vitamin C level lower than other supplements?  Don't I need a much higher dose?

A: Many store-bought supplements contain a mega-dose of vitamin C (500 - 1000 mg). These supplements are isolated vitamin C and do not have all the benefits of a whole-food supplement like this one. Further, vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, and your body will excrete the excess. Most of the time, you don't need massive doses of vitamin C (not for daily wellness), although this can change with illness. We think smaller, bioavailable doses are better for overall health.

### Q: When should I take the Immune-Aid Vitamin C Powder or the Vita-C tincture?

A: You can take either product for supplementing vitamin C in your everyday diet.

When needed, Immune-Aid can be taken "to tolerance."

Many people have heard of Dr. Suzanne Humphries’ vitamin C protocol. It recommends 5–10 grams per day for a child, broken down into small, frequent doses. This is often referred to as taking vitamin C "to tolerance."

When feeling ill, taking Vitamin C “to tolerance” is a common strategy. “To tolerance” means taking more than the regular dose every 4 or so hours backing off once you have loose stools. You know you have reached your ‘tolerance’ when you have to run to the bathroom! Because vitamin C does not get stored in our body, when the body gets what it needs, you eliminate it in your stool – in a quick fashion! So next time, take a bit less than that until you can “tolerate” the response. Then one continues that “to tolerance” amount until they feel the extra support is no longer needed.

### Q: How do I take this? Can I mix this with juice or a smoothie?

A: All of our tinctures can be taken sublingually (under the tongue), orally, or in juice, water, smoothies, applesauce, etc. -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal.

If giving multiples, they can be mixed together in a cup -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal.

**Be sure not to let the dropper touch the mouth** as this can cause contamination. When taking yourself, drop from above your mouth under your tongue. When giving to someone else, ask them to open their mouth and lean their head back so you can drop it in.

### Q: What are the differences between Vita-C or Immune-Aid Powder? What are the differences?

A:

- Immune-Aid Powder has a higher concentration of Vitamin C than the Vita-C tincture.
- Immune-Aid is in powder or capsule form, which some prefer.
- Vita-C is in liquid form. Liquids are easier for some people, especially infants, children, and those who struggle with swallowing.
- The herbal ingredients vary slightly, with the biggest difference being the vegetable glycerin and filtered water base of the Vita-C tincture.

Both are great options, and it depends on your preference.

### Why Vita C instead of another supplement? 

Vita C is a gentle, herbal vitamin C supplement designed to support everyday immune health using whole‑food ingredients rather than synthetic isolates. It contains no over‑the‑counter medications, no natural flavors, and no additives like potassium sorbate.

### Does Vita C contain isolated or synthetic ascorbic acid?

### Does Vita C contain other vitamins? 

Yes, Vita C contains vitamin B6, which works alongside its whole‑food vitamin C sources as part of a gentle, herbal supplement designed to support everyday wellness.

### Does Vita C have added sugar? 

Vita C does not contain added sugar.  It is naturally sweet due to vegetable glycerin, which extracts the beneficial herbal properties and preserves the remedy.

### Does Vita C have added natural flavors? 

No, Vita C does not contain any added natural or artificial flavoring agents. It’s a minimal-ingredient, herbal supplement made without added flavors or unnecessary additives - just herbs in a glycerin-based.

### Does Vita C contain any top common allergens? 

Vita C does not contain any of the top common allergens like corn, soy, gluten, dairy, tree nuts, peanuts, eggs, sesame, or fish.
