The Active Ingredient Is: Vitamin C (Threonic Acid Enhanced Buffered Calcium Ascorbate)
Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin essential for everyday physiological function and antioxidant protection. This form combines ascorbate with threonic acid enhanced buffered calcium to help absorption and cellular utilisation.
Derived from a buffering calcium ascorbate formulation, this Vitamin C source is designed to aid uptake and utilisation within the body.
What Does Vitamin C Do?
Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant in the body, helping to protect cells from oxidative stress in line with EFSA guidance. It plays a role in everyday physiological processes and can be supported by nutrients that regenerate and optimise utilisation.
In this formulation, alpha lipoic acid helps regenerate and optimise Vitamin C use, while buffering and extra bioflavonoids may contribute to its stability and function as part of antioxidant support.
