Source Naturals Ultimate Ascorbate C, 113 g - Powder

What makes this Vitamin C special?

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient your body needs daily. But not all forms of Vitamin C are created equal. Source Naturals' Ultimate Ascorbate C combines five mineral ascorbates: calcium ascorbate, magnesium, potassium, zinc, and manganese. This unique blend offers a buffered form of Vitamin C, less acidic than pure ascorbic acid, ideal for those seeking a stomach-friendly option.

Furthermore, being in powder form, you can easily adjust the dosage and mix it in water or juice. It's a versatile way to incorporate Vitamin C into your daily routine.

Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. It also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage. These are some of the benefits supported by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA):

• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system
• Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage
• Helps reduce tiredness and fatigue
• Contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, bones, cartilage, gums, and teeth
• Increases iron absorption

These statements are approved by the EFSA and are based on solid scientific evidence.

Recommended dosage

The suggested dose is 1 level teaspoon (approximately 1/4 of a measuring teaspoon) mixed in water or juice, preferably with a meal. Each teaspoon provides a significant amount of Vitamin C, but remember: do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you have doubts about the appropriate dose for you, consult a healthcare professional.

Why choose mineral ascorbates?

Pure ascorbic acid can be irritating to the stomach, especially in high doses. Mineral ascorbates, like those in this formula, buffer acidity, making them more tolerable for many people. Additionally, being bound to minerals, they provide cofactors that your body uses naturally. This powder presentation allows for rapid and flexible absorption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take it if I have a sensitive stomach?

Yes, the mineral ascorbate formula is designed to be less acidic than ascorbic acid. Many people with sensitive stomachs tolerate it well. However, every body is unique, so we recommend starting with a small dose and gradually increasing it.

How is the powder taken?

It mixes easily in water, juice, or any beverage. You can adjust the amount according to your preference. It does not have a strong flavor, but if you prefer, mix it with a little orange juice to improve the taste.

Is it better than capsules?

The powder offers flexibility in dosage and can be more economical. Additionally, by not having excipients, it is a pure option. However, capsules are more convenient to carry. The choice depends on your needs.
