This union results in a fat-soluble molecule, unlike conventional ascorbic acid which is water-soluble. Being fat-soluble, ascorbyl palmitate can integrate into cell membranes and offer prolonged antioxidant protection. It is often used in supplement formulations for those seeking an option with lower gastric acidity and different absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Cosmeceutical Sciences Institute (CSI) product features 60 high-quality ascorbyl palmitate capsules. It is an alternative for those who prefer to avoid vitamin C in powder or conventional tablets, or for those who wish to supplement their intake with a more stable form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBenefits of Vitamin C\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. It also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage, as well as to normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth. In addition, vitamin C increases iron absorption and contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is important to remember that these benefits are supported by authorized health claims in the European Union. Ascorbyl palmitate, as a source of vitamin C, provides these same effects once the body metabolizes it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Dose\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe recommended dose for adults is one (1) capsule daily, preferably with a meal. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Each container contains 60 capsules, providing a two-month supply. Consult your healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or have any medical condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Choose the Best Vitamin C?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing a vitamin C supplement, consider the form: ascorbic acid (cheap but acidic), mineral ascorbate (less acidic), or ascorbyl palmitate (fat-soluble). Ascorbyl palmitate is ideal for those seeking a gentler option for the stomach and potentially greater bioavailability in fatty tissues. It is also suitable for people with sensitive stomachs or who experience discomfort with pure ascorbic acid. This CSI product offers a pure form of ascorbyl palmitate, without unnecessary additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs ascorbyl palmitate the same as regular vitamin C?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAscorbyl palmitate is a derivative of vitamin C. Once ingested, the body breaks it down into ascorbic acid and palmitic acid, providing the same benefits as conventional vitamin C. Its main difference is that it is fat-soluble, which can offer different absorption and distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I take this capsule on an empty stomach?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenerally, ascorbyl palmitate is less acidic than ascorbic acid, so it may be better tolerated on an empty stomach. However, it is recommended to take it with food for optimal absorption as part of a balanced diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes this product contain gluten or lactose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to available manufacturer information, the capsules are gluten and lactose-free, although it is always recommended to check the product label to confirm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFood supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosmeceutical Sciences Institute (CSI)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48761631899802,"sku":null,"price":27.14,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0761\/4831\/0170\/files\/61TBRPqMqIL._AC_SL1000.jpg?v=1784393932","url":"https:\/\/vitaminaspain.es\/es\/products\/csi-vitamina-c-ester-ascorbil-palmitato-60-capsulas-b0040zughs","provider":"vitaminaspain","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
