NOW Foods Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C) 227g

Now Foods Sodium Ascorbate is an important dietary supplement containing vitamin C (ascorbic acid). It provides the body with a bioavailable form of vitamin C to boost the immune system, repair tissue damage, and protect against oxidative stress. This product comes in powder form, making it easy to mix with juices and can also be taken directly on the tongue.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential nutrient found in many foods, including citrus fruits, green vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes, and fortified cereals. The human body cannot produce or store it, so it must be obtained through food or supplements. Vitamin C plays an important role in maintaining healthy skin, aiding wound healing, protecting against free radicals, and contributing to the maintenance of good health. It is also essential for the body to absorb iron and helps form collagen, which gives skin its structure.

Now Foods Sodium Ascorbate offers a more bioavailable form of vitamin C than regular ascorbic acid because it's buffered with sodium ions. This makes it gentler on the stomach and less likely to cause irritation. For optimal absorption, NOW Foods Sodium Ascorbate should be taken on an empty stomach or mixed into beverages or smoothies.
