New Chapter Organics Activated C Food Complex is nature's immune support in a highly active form. While vitamin C is widely recognized for its cell protective and immune supportive effects, research on important antioxidant nutrients has demonstrated that only when the nutrient is in the form of food will it deliver its full wisdom to support health. New Chapter Organics C Food Complex delivers an expert blend of easily digested and highly active probiotic vitamin C with a proprietary formulation of free-radical scavenging and immune supportive herbs cultured for optimal effectiveness. Complementing the probiotic vitamin C are 19 of the most revered immune active herbs and mushrooms like astragalus and reishi, and antioxidant herbals, cinnamon and oregano. New Chapter brings the nutritional promise of vitamin C to a new paradigm in wholesomeness and efficacy. New Chapter provides you an organic probiotic alternative to isolated or USP vitamins and minerals. All of their vitamins and minerals are cultured in organic soy using nature's most prized and studied probiotics, featuring Lactobacilli acidophilus, bifidus, rhamnosus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. New Chapter's Probiotic Nutrients deliver biotransformed vitamins and minerals in their finest cultured form, much in the same way as miso, kefir, tempeh, and yogurt.

Johnny C. (Amazon Customer Review) – :
Every New Chapter product I've used has been good. A good way to take vitamin C.
D. Sandvig (Amazon Customer Review) – :
I have been taking this for years and I have not had a cold or flu in 10 years, at least. My husband has had the same experience. It is a whole-vitamin (not a synthetic) so you can take it on an empty stomach without tummy upset. We highly recommend this Vitamin C.
Terry R. (Amazon Customer Review) – :
Each organic tablet contains 417% of the RDA for Vit C complex, & not just the 'empty' chemical ascorbic acid. Also has tumeric, ginger, probiotics, etc. to really help build up the immune system holistically. Taken several times a day, it is a great supplement for anyone fighting CFS, Mono, or any other similar viral or autoimmune disease, where they need to build up the natural immune system in order to restore their health & energy levels.
T. Sadowski – :
Most of ingredients in this supplement are very good. But it does have soy, something I really didn't want.
Dusty (Amazon Customer Review) – :
I really like this product, it does not cause me any bad side effects. I usually drink a glass of orange juice for my breakfast, yes I know I should eat a breakfast, instead of drinking it but..... I take one of these with my evening meal. Recently I attended a family reunion, and everyone came down with a cold, but you guessed it not me! As a older person, getting ill has more serious consequences, so I try to stay as healthy as I can, I take a New chapter multi vitamin, along with their bone strength, iron, and the activated C. So far no colds, no sore throat, no nothing, so maybe this combination works for me. Hope you give this product a chance, I think you will like it as much as I do.
