Description
This form of vitamin C is less acidic than isolated ascorbic acid and therefore more gentle on the stomach. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is an essential water soluble vitamin that cannot be manufactured by or stored in the body so needs to be replaced on a daily basis. Your daily requirement for it is higher than any other water soluble nutrient. Storing, peeling, freezing and cooking food can deplete the vitamin C content in food.
