Vitamin C from food
Mainly vegetables and fruits are known for their high content of vitamin C. Citrus fruits, peppers, berries, kiwis, green (leafy) vegetables, and tropical fruits are good sources of this vitamin. Dietary supplements are intended to support a healthy diet.
Our #1 supplement for resistance
Vitamin C plays an important role for the immune system. However, an insurmountable problem of this nutrient is that we are not able to produce the vitamin ourselves. As a result, we are completely dependent on our diet for an adequate vitamin C level.
Especially in our current busy lives, eating enough vegetables and fruits, the main source of vitamin C, unfortunately often falls short. In that case, taking a good supplement can be a welcome addition. Vitamin C in the form of calcium/magnesium ascorbate is a well-absorbed and bioavailable form. Together with copper and zinc, vitamin C has a positive effect on the immune system.
What is buffered vitamin C? High dosage of vitamin C as calcium/magnesium ascorbate
Ascorbic acid is by far the most well-known form of vitamin C. It is also the variant that naturally occurs in our diet and in most vitamin C supplements. This acidic form can cause irritation to the stomach and intestines at high dosages.
We have linked our favorite for resistance to calcium/magnesium ascorbate, resulting in a more suitable form for a higher dosage of vitamin C. Due to the mineral-bound structure, it helps neutralize the acidity of vitamin C, making the nutrient friendlier for the stomach and intestines. Moreover, the deacidified character ensures higher bioavailability, resulting in significantly better absorption.
