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 promoting white blood cell function and activity.
  • Ascorbic acid is essential for the formation and maintenance of intercellular ground substance and collagen, crucial for connective tissue health.
