As Vitamin C supplements go, I like this one very much. The pill is smallish but the effect is mighty..I can attest to its help recently where I felt a difference with taking 2 or 3.

This deal is for 100 caplets, so the five units comes to 500 caplets.
Can also choose BOGO for $4.99

Does anybody else hear Prof. Frink's voice (from The Simpsons, but I didn't need to tell YOU that,) when they read the word "bio-FLAVO-noids!"

At one point the world's largest supply of vitamin C was in the US sewer system, as Americans were taking in so much more than their bodies could handle they were literally peeing it away. Thankfully as far as vitamins go, vitamin C is one of the least bothersome at absurdly high concentrations.

Before you go taking a vitamin C supplement, you might want to ask yourself when the last time was that someone you knew suffered from or died from scurvy. If the answer to that is never then you might not really be in need of more vitamin C.

@lparsons42: Vitamin c does way more than prevent scurvy. Your body requires millions of natural chemical reactions to function properly and prevent disease. Vitamin C is necessary in most of these. Ask yourself: When was the last time someone I know died from a disease like cancer?

@mcjiver: I can tell you there are plenty of critical reactions in the body that do not require vitamin C. To say that most reactions require vitamin C is not even remotely close to accurate. It is a useful compound but the levels in which the average American already consumes it there is seldom a need for more.

Not sure if the rose hips aren't simply the source of the vitamin C but listed separately. In Russia, rose hips are farmed for vitamin C as citrus sources are insufficient...may be true lots of places.

@thomasr: Here is an interesting wiki article about Rose Hip, that you could read. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_hip

Rose Hip is known as a major plant source of Vitamin C, but it is not the only source as we know.

In this case the label components are these:

Vitamin C 500 mg 833%
Citrus Bioflavonoids (orange) (Citrus spp.) (fruit) 25 mg *
Wild Rose Hips 14 mg *
*Daily Value not established.

Other Ingredients: Ascorbic Acid, Vegetable Cellulose, Citrus Bioflavonoids, Rose Hips, Vegetable Stearic Acid, Silica, Vegetable Magnesium Stearate

The Mayo Clinic site has clearly written, easily understood comments about Vitamin C, including daily levels suggested for preventing or resolving various medical matters:

I couldn't get the 10% off coupon code to work; I ended up on Amazon, about the same price when I checked shipping costs. (I have Amazon Prime.)

Vitamin C supplementation is not necessary in most cases. There is no evidence that vitamin C improves health functions other than to relieve insufficiency or deficiency of vitamin C (this should be diagnosed by a doctor). Fortunately vitamin C is not harmful unless taken at very high doses, so supplementation won't be likely to harm you.

"There is a clear trend in the evidence we have to date. The benefits of routine supplementation are unproven. High doses of vitamins probably cause more harm than good. If you are concerned about your nutrition then improve your diet." - Dr Steven Novella

Save your money and stop paying for vitamins, if you think you have a insufficiency or deficiency then see a doctor (a real doctor, not a nutritionist or naturopath).

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
