Vitamin C is commonly known for its ability to boost the immune system. However, it also plays several other crucial roles in maintaining overall health. For instance, did you know that Vitamin C is essential for the formation of collagen? This means that it supports the normal functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth, and skin.
Humans cannot produce Vitamin C, so it’s important to consume it daily. Vitamin C-rich foods like oranges, kiwi, red peppers, strawberries, and sweet potatoes can help keep your body healthy. Food supplements can also be used to ‘top-up’ when your diet is lacking.
There are many different forms of Vitamin C, with the most common form found in supplements being Ascorbic Acid. Some people find this form of Vitamin C too acidic, especially those with sensitive stomachs.
Natures Aid’s expertise in nutrition has resulted in the creation of Low Acid Vitamin C 1000mg tablets, which have been carefully formulated by their experts. This low-acid formulation combines Ascorbic Acid with more gentle forms of Vitamin C, such as Calcium Ascorbate, and Sodium Ascorbate, resulting in a product that is gentle on the tummy while still providing 1000mg of Vitamin C per tablet.
- Natures Aid Low Acid Vitamin C is a “tummy-friendly” form of Vitamin C, ideal for those with a sensitive stomach
One tablet provides: Vitamin C 1000mg, Rosehip Extract 12.5mg equivalent to 50mg Rosehips, Citrus Bioflavonoids 50mg.

Super Magnesium
High strength and natural, this new magnesium, sourced from the Irish Sea is easily absorbed and gentle on the gut. It is the mineral for you if you suffer from muscle tension, low energy or if you are feeling frazzled and find it hard to relax in the evening.
Made with Aquamin™ marine magnesium – as natural as can be and better tolerated than other types of magnesium. It also naturally contains many beneficial trace minerals which researchers have found to help the magnesium to be better absorbed.
Magnesium has many health benefits and plays an important role in over 300 reactions in the body – it is vital for us all! Muscle tension, restless legs and eye twitches are signs of low magnesium, as are disturbed nights, time of the month and anxiety.
Magnesium also supports healthy bones, teeth and muscles. If you are lacking in energy, it also helps with the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It is perfect for natural calm as it supports normal psychological and nervous system function.
Food sources of magnesium include leafy green vegetables, nuts and seeds, whole grains and lentils. National diet surveys have found that our intake of magnesium in foods is consistently low so for many of us, we need to top up.
Magnesium is also depleted by stress, alcohol and high-sugar diets as well as some medications so a well-absorbed supplement may be of benefit.
- Each capsule contains 300mg of magnesium, the dose recommended by researchers to top up levels
- Sourced from the sea – completely natural marine magnesium
- Well-absorbed and well-tolerated

Red Sterol Complex
If you need support for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels Red Sterol Complex is for you. A unique combination of plant sterols, red yeast rice, a traditional Chinese extract from rice fermented with monascus purpureus, and policosanol extract.
Plant sterols block the absorption of cholesterol from your diet to help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels, whilst red yeast rice has been used for centuries for its potent health-giving properties. Policosanol is found naturally in sugar cane waxes. The formula also includes cinnamon bark extract and vitamin E for complete support. Vitamin E helps protect against the oxidation of cholesterol.
Oxidation is a chemical process in the body where molecules in our cells, or in this case, fats such as cholesterol become damaged by unstable molecules called free radicals. It is believed that the oxidised cholesterol is harmful to the health of the arteries, causing inflammation and hardening. Excessive oxidation may be caused by factors such as stress, smoking and alcohol.
Cleverly formulated with a two-pronged natural approach – this unique product targets cholesterol in the diet and cholesterol made by the liver itself. Giving you dual benefits when you need them most.
Ideal for anyone who is not currently taking conventional statin medication but may be concerned about raised cholesterol levels and wishes to lower them naturally, without side effects. Higher Nature formulated this product so that it can be used at a higher initial dose and then results maintained at a lower maintenance dose.
- A multi-pronged approach for targeting support for cholesterol
- With red yeast rice – natural fermented extract
- Contains 1000mg plant sterols per daily dose including beta-sitosterol which contribute to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.
