Product insights

  • Buffered ascorbic acid combines calcium, magnesium, and potassium ascorbates to provide a neutral pH form of vitamin C.
  • Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that supports the body's defense system by promoting white blood cell function, interferon levels, and antibody responses.
  • It is essential for the formation and maintenance of intercellular ground substance and collagen, and aids in the absorption of iron and the formation of red blood cells.
  • Vitamin C also supports healthy mast cell function, lymphocyte formation, and is required for the synthesis of carnitine and steroids.
