Product Information

For some people, when they take Vitamin C in its pure basic form of ascorbic acid it may cause some gastric upset due to its acidic nature. To overcome this, the vitamin C in this product is neutralised with calcium to produce a compound called an ascorbate which in a non-acidic compound of Vitamin C. These tablets are therefore gentle on the stomach and ideal for those with delicate digestions, or for anyone taking large amounts of Vitamin C.
