Prevent Blood Disorders With Calcium Ascorbate Vitamin C
Ascorbate calcium is the calcium salt form of ascorbic acid (also known as vitamin C) that is used to prevent and treat scurvy, a vitamin C deficiency. Vitamin C may also be used in persons with chronic illness, burns, certain blood disorders, or as dietary supplement for general health and wellness.
Vitamin C as calcium ascorbate is an innovative form of vitamin C. It is a patented, non-acidic vitamin C with metabolites. Calcium Ascorbate provides the important benefits of vitamin C to your immune system, joints, heart, eyes, skin and is even beneficial for many pets. Calcium Ascorbate is the only vitamin C with metabolites. Vitamin C metabolites result from the natural oxidation of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) that occurs during a proprietary manufacturing process. A preliminary study suggests that the metabolites in Calcium Ascorbate help it to work differently than ordinary vitamin C because it is non-acidic.
Vitamin C as calcium ascorbate is an acid neutralized (pH 6.7) form of vitamin C and therefore gentle on your stomach and non-irritating to the digestive system. Calcium Ascorbate is natural, free of GMOs (genetically modified organisms), cruelty free, free of allergens, chemicals and artificial ingredients. Calcium Ascorbate is Kosher- and Halal-certified.
Vitamin C plays a vital role in the formation of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue), amino acid metabolism and hormone synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron. It is also a key factor in the body’s immune system.
Vitamin C also comes in at least two other forms, chemically bonded to minerals as ascorbates, and to the fat palmitic acid, as ascorbyl palmitate which is a fat soluble version of vitamin C. Both of these forms are non-acidic.
Ascorbic acid is the acidic form of vitamin C, and even when encapsulated can cause gastric upset or diarrhea for some people. This can often be alleviated by consuming it with meals.
This is why calcium ascorbate is the preferred form of vitamin C for most individuals unless regular ascorbic acid has been taken and found to not affect the digestive system. Look for calcium ascorbate in capsule, tablet, or bulk powder forms at your local or internet health food store. Always select a name brand vitamin to ensure quality and purity of the product you purchase.
