Can I chew the tablets or should I let them dissolve slowly in the mouth?

The product is described as a lozenge-style tablet in a chewable or slowly dissolving format. You can either chew it or let it dissolve in the mouth — vitamin C absorption occurs in the small intestine regardless of whether the tablet is broken down mechanically in the mouth or swallowed whole after dissolving. Chewing may release the strawberry flavour more quickly, while slow dissolution can be gentler if you have a sensitive throat or prefer a longer-lasting taste. There is no evidence that one method improves bioavailability over the other for this dose range. If you have dental work, braces, or sensitive teeth, letting the tablet dissolve avoids biting pressure. After taking the tablet, a sip of water helps clear any residual sugar from the teeth. The format is intended for convenience at work, during travel, or at home, so choose the method that fits the moment.
