Propel Health Tangy Vitamin C 450g is a citrus-flavoured, buffered vitamin C powder supplied in a tub. The manufacturer states that it provides 1,000mg of vitamin C per serving, with hesperidin bioflavonoids and additional minerals. It offers a powder option for people who prefer preparing a vitamin C drink to taking a tablet or capsule. The 450g size describes the amount of powder in the pack.
The formula is described as buffered, with calcium and magnesium phosphates used to reduce acidity. That makes its composition different from plain ascorbic acid powder. Hesperidin is a citrus bioflavonoid included alongside vitamin C, while zinc is also named by the supplier. These are formulation details to compare with other vitamin C powders, especially when deciding between a single-ingredient powder and one containing additional nutrients.
The published 1,000mg amount refers to vitamin C per serving, not to the total weight of a serving of powder. Use the gram amount printed on the label when measuring the powder and comparing the number of servings in different tubs. The citrus flavour is another practical difference from an unflavoured vitamin C ingredient. Prepare the drink using the label’s instructions for the amount of powder and liquid.
The supplier identifies this product as AUST L 463667 and gives specific guidance for children. Children aged 2–12 take half the adult dose; it is not for children under two without medical advice. The adult serving still needs to be measured from the pack directions, so the age guidance should be read together with those instructions rather than used to estimate a dose from the tub size.
Vitamins can only be of assistance if dietary vitamin intake is inadequate. If symptoms persist, seek the advice of a healthcare professional. Check the complete ingredient and warning information on the pack if you have an allergy, take other supplements or need to compare exact nutrient amounts. Follow its storage instructions and close the tub after measuring each serving. The powder format, citrus flavour and published vitamin C amount are the key features for comparing this product.
