NOW Foods True-C Biocomplex VCapsNOW Tru-C BioComplex contains an extract of the Amla Berry (Phyllanthus emblica), one of the most frequently used Ayurvedic herbs. Amla is an exceptionally rich source of Vitamin C, Bioflavonoids, and Tannins. Recent scientific studies have shown that the tannins and flavonoids unique to Amla can help to support and modulate immune function. Amla may also provide protection for vascular structures against oxidative stress. In addition, Tru-C BioComplex contains Rutin, Rose Hips, and Grape Seed Extract as synergists. NOW Tru-C BioComplex contains only non-GMO, fruit derived Vitamin C. This 100% vegetarian, non-synthetic source of Vitamin C is citrus- and corn-free.

Energy and Love Now Foods Products
These seem to be giving me a boost of energy but it isn't completely apparent quite yet. I take one a day and appreciate the positive effects but I do take several other supplements so I may need to give this one more time before deciding how effective it is. I will provide an update later.Update 6 Months Later: I stopped taking these because I think they were interacting with another supplement and I started having a skin reaction. Once I stopped taking these, I was better. I also realized that the Now Foods Biotin was likely the product giving me more energy and it also helped with hair and nail growth so I opted to only take the Now Foods Biotin 5000mcg instead of this product.

Not strong enough to be therapeutic.
I gave this three stars because I believe this is a quality item but the dose is too low to be therapeutic. I also noticed that the label seemed to indicate that only a certain amount of the vitamin c was naturally derived. I have since purchased a brand of buffered sodium ascorbate (vitamin c) that is non acidic so it wont hurt your teeth, while being in powered form it has 800 servings at about 1,800% RDA. this is what I consider therapeutic. I will be getting it soon and reviewing that one I see how it goes.

Excellent Product
This is a great form of Vitamin C. It is not limited to one form that that body will adjust to and eventually excrete before it has been used by the body. I have found that this product works better then any other form of Vitamin C that I have used. I also have not had a "belly ache" when using this product.

Like it!!
Its all natural to begin with, loaded with the Indian gooseberry powder which has been long used as a source for vitamin c and for healthy hair. I have just started using it, so cannot say how effective it is yet but definitely smells and look all natural with no corn additive. Just that for 60 caps with a dosage of two caps per day, it gets bit expensive but then I guess you have to pay for it to be all natural.

So sad that Now Foods discontinued Tru-C Biocomplex
So sad that Now Foods discontinued Tru-C Biocomplex. I searched and searched for a whole food, non-ascorbic acid vitamin C supplement and found this one. I really liked it and was so disappointed to find I couldn't get it anymore.

Great Vitamin C on the go!
I typically take a powdered form of Vitamin C but this great for taking with you on the go. Especially when you are getting under the weather and may need a little "C" boost throughout the day.

The BEST Vitamin C Complex
This is the best vitamin C complex out there, in my opinion. NOW is a very reliable brand. The vitamin c is from amla fruit. Amla is the highest source of vitamin C naturally. I have been using this on a daily basis for well over a year. I rarely get sick. I don't know if it is this product or not. But since I will take vitamin C anyway, it will be this. Also, the price here is very good.

Not corn based or GMO
It was a surprise to me that a LOT of Vitamin C brands are corn based or GMO. Not this one - so I'm very pleased to have found it. Thank you Now Foods!
