Buffered Vitamin C Powder

Gentle, gradual-release vitamin C for immune, collagen, and stress support*

What It Does
Buffered Vitamin C Powder provides over 1000 mg of vitamin C per 1/2 teaspoon serving, buffered with calcium and magnesium to support immune function, connective tissue health, and the body’s stress response.* Its gentle formulation makes it ideal for individuals who may experience gastrointestinal sensitivity to regular ascorbic acid.*

How It Works
•    Buffered with Calcium and Magnesium: Combining ascorbic acid with calcium and magnesium carbonates helps neutralize pH for improved GI tolerance and sustained absorption.*
•    Immune Function: Vitamin C supports innate and adaptive immunity, regulates cytokine signaling, and aids white blood cell activity and histamine metabolism.*[1-2]
•    Antioxidant Support: As a water-soluble antioxidant, vitamin C helps regenerate glutathione and neutralize free radicals produced during immune and metabolic activity.*[3]
•    Collagen Synthesis: Essential for the production of collagen and elastin, vitamin C contributes to the health of skin, joints, bones, and periodontal tissue integrity.*[4-5]
•    Stress Response and Brain Function: Concentrated in the adrenal glands and brain, vitamin C is a cofactor in the synthesis of norepinephrine and serotonin, supporting mood, alertness, and resilience under stress.*[6-8]
•    Sustained Delivery: Buffered vitamin C is absorbed more gradually than standard ascorbic acid, helping to maintain stable blood levels over time.*

Who It’s For
Buffered Vitamin C Powder is ideal for individuals seeking a well-tolerated, effective form of vitamin C to support immunity, skin and joint health, and adrenal function, especially those with sensitive digestion or higher daily requirements.*

As a dietary supplement, 1 heaping teaspoon or more in 8 to 12 ounces of liquid between meals, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. As with all vitamin C formulations, as one begins to achieve body saturation, bowel tolerance may be temporarily exceeded and diarrhea or loose stools may occur. As the high levels of vitamin C in the tissues become used up, the bowel symptoms should ease. Ideal for controlling acidity often associated with hypersensitivity reactions.
