WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT THE ZEITBELEN TECHNOLOGY?

When absorbing vitamin C, it is important that the body can only absorb and store larger amounts to a limited extent.
With the help of ZEITPERLEN technology, the blood is not inundated with vitamin C and, at the same time, a loss of vitamin C through the urine is avoided. The body can absorb 98.6% of the vitamin, which experts call high bioavailability.
The ZEITPERLEN ® consist of several alternating layers of vitamin C and a slowly dissolving food coating , which enables the vitamin C to be released.
