Vitamin C Powder, Stimulate Immune and Antioxidant

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

The Ascorbic acid is another name for Vitamin C. Vitamin C is a popular antioxidant and one of the most widely used vitamins in the world. The ascorbic acid is a bioavailable form of vitamin C in powder form, so it can be combined with other supplements in powder or dissolved in liquid for easy ingestion.

The Calcium Ascorbate is the set form of salt (metal) of water-soluble antioxidant vitamin C (ascorbic acid). The calcium reacts with ascorbic acid to soften the acidic nature of this vitamin, making it more gentle for the special needs of individuals who may have sensitive gastrointestinal tract. The pH of this buffer solution of ascorbic metal is about 6.8 to 7.4 compared with ascorbic acid whose pH is about 2.5. The Calcium Ascorbate provides approximately 10% elemental calcium.

The Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is a reducing sugar involved in biochemical processes such as hydroxylation of proline and lysine in the formation of collagen and healthy connective tissue. Deficiency of ascorbic acid leads to a atheneia called scurvy, which occurs when the weakened collagen fibers and leads to rot teeth, delayed healing of open wounds and skin. The Ascorbate is involved in many other vital functions such as mobilization of iron, stimulation of the immune system and as an antioxidant to neutralize reactive free radicals.

The Now Vitamin C Crystals are 100% pure Vitamin C powder and recognized product for pharmaceutical uses (USP). 1 / 2 teaspoon provides 2.25 grams of vitamin C.
