Vitamin C that's buffered, so it's easier on the stomach*

It not only provides an optimized dose of vitamin C, but also adds calcium, magnesium and potassium – optimal ingredients for sustained health.

Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is much more than your ordinary antioxidant. It helps to keep cells healthy by protecting them from damage caused by harmful free radicals. Vitamin C can also help with energy production and maintaining balanced cholesterol levels while promoting wound healing and supporting a strong immune system when taken in high quantities - several grams per day. However, individuals who have sensitive digestion may find it difficult to take such large amounts of vitamin C regularly due its potential digestive effects.*Thorne's Buffered C Powder offers an enhanced experience for those with sensitivities to vitamin C, providing not only a larger amount of the nutrient but also an easy-to-digest blend of calcium, magnesium and potassium mineral-ascorbates.

Linus Pauling's extensive research in the 1970s and 1980s uncovered a remarkable connection between ascorbic acid intake and health. His Nobel Prize-winning discovery has revealed that certain lifestyle factors, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, stress levels or diabetes can require an increased vitamin C consumption to maintain well being. Furthermore, environmental toxicity exposure along with drug usage also indicate additional needs for this essential nutrient.
