This special form of ascorbic acid lessens possible gastric irritation in sensitive individuals.
Uses For Buffered Ascorbic Acid and
Various Physiological Support Properties: Vitamin C
offers a wide range of support for the human body. It is a
potent antioxidant and free radical scavenger supporting
cellular and vascular health. Vitamin C has been reported
to promote nitric oxide activity as well as to help maintain
healthy platelet function. It supports the body's defense
system by enhancing white blood cell function and
activity, and increasing interferon levels, antibody
responses, and secretion of thymic hormones.
Furthermore, this antioxidant has histamine lowering
properties and increases lymphocyte formation. It is
also essential for the formation and maintenance of
intercellular ground substance and collagen, important for
joint health. Vitamin C aids in the absorption of iron and
the formation of red blood cells and converts folic acid to
its active forms.*
What Is The Source?
The ascorbic acid in this formula is derived from corn
dextrose fermentation. The minerals in this formula are
naturally derived from limestone. Ascorbyl palmitate in
Buffered Ascorbic Acid capsules is also derived from corn
dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
