Buffered Vitamin C

Product Details

Developed by Stephen A. Levine, PhD. Our vitamin C is formulated with carbonates of potassium, calcium and magnesium, giving it an acid-alkaline buffering action (pH 7.0 in water) potentially improving bowel tolerance and minimizing hyperacidity.. . Allergy Research Group/NutriCology Inc. has pioneered the development of buffered vitamin C products, and continues to offer the purest and least allergenic vitamin C products available anywhere. In addition to its hefty content of ascorbic acid, our buffered vitamin C also supplies potassium and the macrominerals calcium and magnesium at approximately one half of the RDI per level teaspoon. Due to its generous complement of calcium (350 mg per teaspoon), supplementation with our buffered vitamin C may be desirable for individuals who do not regularly consume dairy products.

Ingredients

Each 1 teaspoon (4.7 g) contains: Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) 2135 mg Calcium (as Calcium Carbonate) 405 mg Magnesium (as Magnesium Carbonate) 215 mg Potassium (as Potassium Carbonate) 90 mg Other ingredients: Cellulose

Dosage

As a dietary supplement, 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon or more in liquid, between meals, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. As with all Vitamin C formulations, as one begins to achieve body saturation "bowel tolerance" may be temporarily exceeded and diarrhea or loose stools may occur. As the high levels of vitamin C in the tissues become used up, the bowel symptoms should ease.*
