AlphaSorb-C™ by NOW FOODS is a food supplement in vegetarian capsule form that supplies vitamin C from buffered calcium ascorbate together with calcium, alpha lipoic acid and selected plant extracts.
The capsule format suits adults who prefer to take vitamin C once a day with a meal as part of a regular routine.
The formula is built around vitamin C from Threonic Acid Enhanced Buffered Calcium Ascorbate, which also supplies calcium. This forms the Transport C-PLUS® blend with alpha lipoic acid and is accompanied by a citrus bioflavonoid complex, acerola fruit extract (Malpighia punicifolia), rose hips powder (Rosa canina) and rutin complex from Sophora japonica flower bud. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
What is buffered vitamin C and how does it differ from standard vitamin C?
Buffered vitamin C in this product is provided as calcium ascorbate, supplying both vitamin C and calcium in one ingredient, unlike standard ascorbic acid forms.
Can the AlphaSorb-C™ capsules be opened to mix the powder with water?
Yes, the vegetarian capsules can be carefully opened and the contents mixed with water or juice if you prefer not to swallow capsules.
What is the best way to store AlphaSorb-C™ after opening?
Store the capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, tightly closed, and keep them out of reach of children.
