Customer Reviews of NOW Foods Vitamin C-1000 Sustained Release with Rose Hips, 250 Tablets
Customer Review: Vitamin C...great for living
Summary: 5 Stars
In this day and age, I am shocked that the media doesn't tout the benefits of Vitamin C more. So easy to take, cheap and safe. I am now on permanent daily Vitamin C.
Every person in the world should be supplementing with it. Last year, I suffered through a nasty cold during the summer and vowed that it would not happen to me again this year. I searched for homeopathic ways to prevent/combat common viruses (cold, influenza) and was amazed how often Vitamin C was mentioned. Not only that, but it could cut the duration of cold/flu in HALF when taking megadoses of Vitamin C with few side effects! That's as good as Tamiflu! Without the horrible side effects. The worst side effect I could find info on for Vitamin C overdose was diarrhea. Seems pretty minor compared to the side effects of RX drugs.
I want to be prepared if/when the next flu/cold outbreak hits and I feel confident that I am now. I keep extra bottles in case I do become ill and will need to megadose every hour.
If you don't believe me on the benefits, just Google "Vitamin C cold flu megadose" and read all about it. I cannot believe I am just now learning all this and wanted to share this information.
As for the NOW product, it was exactly as described and I have no complaints about the product. As always, their supplements are superior. I like the sustained release aspect of these tablets as well. Be sure to take it with food, as it digests and absorbs better that way. I am totally pleased :)
Customer Review: Works for me
Summary: 5 Stars
Not sure what the difference is, but this brand seems to go down easier than another brand I've tried. Maybe it is the fact that it is sustained release, but it is less likely to irritate the esophagus than what I'm currently using.Customer Review: Good luck dealing with this company
Summary: 1 Stars
I used to be a happy user of their products. That was until I found an inner seal with a hole in it and rancid vitamins. Unfortunately that was just the start, what I got was a huge hole in customer service doing what they said they would and a rancid indifferent level of response. They promised a response, failed to deliver and have ignored my emails since then. I used to be a regular user of their products but have lost faith in the company. If they finally someday do the right thing I will be happy to update my reviews but for now I am shopping for a new primary source of supplements. It does not make sense in this economy to abdicate a role in customer service but seemingly this is what they are doing to save money.
