Product insights

  • Buffered ascorbic acid combines calcium, magnesium, and potassium ascorbates to provide a neutral pH form of vitamin C, minimizing gastric irritation.
  • Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that scavenges free radicals and supports the body's defense system by enhancing white blood cell function and antibody responses.
  • This formula supports collagen formation, crucial for maintaining the integrity of intercellular ground substance, connective tissues, and wound healing.
  • Vitamin C aids in iron absorption, red blood cell formation, and the conversion of folic acid to its active form, folinic acid.
