NutriBiotic Ascorbate Bio-C - Buffered Effervescent Vitamin C Powder with Bioflavonoids and Minerals, 2.2 Lb (1 kg)

NutriBiotic Ascorbate Bio-C is a buffered effervescent vitamin C powder that provides a gentle yet effective way to support your daily health. Unlike many vitamin C supplements that can cause digestive upset, this formula features ascorbate – a buffered form of vitamin C with a pH of 5.8 – making it kind to your stomach while still delivering a potent dose of 1,000 mg per serving. It also includes lemon bioflavonoids and a mineral blend of calcium, magnesium, zinc, and selenium for added nutritional support.

What Makes NutriBiotic Ascorbate Bio-C Unique?

This formula stands out because it uses buffered ascorbate instead of straight ascorbic acid, resulting in a pH of 5.8 that is much gentler on the digestive system. The effervescent powder dissolves quickly in water or juice, creating a refreshing tart drink. Each serving delivers a comprehensive blend of bioflavonoids and minerals that work synergistically with vitamin C. With over 40 years of trusted quality, NutriBiotic has been a pioneer in vitamin C research, inspired by the work of Linus Pauling.
