## Description

Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient well known for its vital role in the immune system.* Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue) and is therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health.* Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron.* It is also a highly effective antioxidant that can help maintain healthy tissues by neutralizing free radicals generated during normal metabolism and exposure to environmental stressors.* This product supplies calcium ascorbate, a buffered form of vitamin C that is bioavailable and non-acidic; it is enhanced with bioflavonoids, which work synergistically with vitamin C.* Natural color variation may occur in this product.

Review: Vitamin C with the bioflavnoids makes it like eating a lemon a day ! Best form of vitamin C - This is the type of a vitamin C you should be taking, the bioflavnoids add a lot and make this true vitamin c (similar to if you ate the a slice of lemon rind and all which is actually very good and tasty) Vitamin c that is just ascorbic acid isnt doing much for anyone. Its just a waste of money. This vitamin c really upped my immune support. If i do get sick, im down for less days then before (when i was taking what i thought was vitamin c but it was just straight ascorbic acid) Pill size are just shy of "horse size" they are large, with a slight orange hint. I personally have no problem taking them but keep in mind if you have trouble that these are rather large. I love that I found a brand that's decently priced and includes the bioflavnoids into the ingredients. I take one every morning and if i counted right lasts me approx 3 months (90 days cause one every day) When Im sick (whether bacterial or viral) I take 2 just cause, no real reason other then I want to. One of these a day really helps my body kick out viruses and some minor bacterial infections easier (i always give my body a chance first and go see a doctor if my fever won't go down, im not careless 😀 )
Review: Large supplement caplet will be hard for some to swallow. Good product. Buffered. - Now supplements seem to be a good brand! This Vitamin C is rather large in capsule shape (pictured atop a US Dime). Some will probably find it difficult to swallow. They're reasonably priced too. We, as consumers, just have to trust that we are getting what we ordered with any supplements and I have no reason to believe anything is different in this instance. I like that it's buffered to help it go easy on your stomach. I have no negatives regarding this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this made with any syntetic products?**
A: I am currently taking Solaray buffered V-C; I am unsure what syntetic is...do you mean synthetic?

**Q: Is it really true that this Vit. C comes from corn???**
A: According to NOW (manufacturer) it states it is NON GMO.  All corn is GMO'd.  These are not derived from corn.  I don't think NOW food would be foolish enough to state it was NON GMO and then bottle and sell a product to try to pass it off as such.  They have an 800 number, if you are not finding an answer, I would call them and clarify.

**Q: Is this product Vegetarian?**
A: Yes.  This product is vegetarian. Includes a silica and vegetarian coating.

**Q: Is this similar to ester c?**
A: No.  This is Calcium Ascorbate.  Much gentler on the digestive system.

Ester-C is a pH neutral product which has a different composition from regular vitamin C, which is ascorbic acid. The main component of Ester-C is calcium ascorbate also but with other ingredients added. Other ingredients of Ester-C are compounds known as vitamin C metabolites, which are dehydroascorbic acid and calcium threonate. The manufacturer of Ester-C claims that it possesses superior bioavailability over vitamin C (absorbing acid)  but available research does not support this, the Linus Pauling Institute reports. Furthermore, The Linus Pauling Institute advises "Ester-C® should not be confused with ascorbyl palmitate, which is also marketed as 'vitamin C ester.'"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vitamin C with the bioflavnoids makes it like eating a lemon a day ! Best form of vitamin C

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Large supplement caplet will be hard for some to swallow. Good product. Buffered.
*by R***R on October 28, 2021*

Now supplements seem to be a good brand! This Vitamin C is rather large in capsule shape (pictured atop a US Dime). Some will probably find it difficult to swallow. They're reasonably priced too. We, as consumers, just have to trust that we are getting what we ordered with any supplements and I have no reason to believe anything is different in this instance. I like that it's buffered to help it go easy on your stomach. I have no negatives regarding this product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vitamin C with Citrus Bioflavonoids. Good deal for the price
*by O***V on February 16, 2013*

Good, quality C vitamin. The price is not bad either. The pills are a bit on a large size but then all of the C vitamins on the market that I know of come in these large pills, unless you take it as liquid or chewable. Here's what's inside per serving (1 pill): ✔ Vitamin C, 1000mg: Ascorbic Acid. Well, we all know what this is. ✔ Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex, 100mg: Citrus bioflavonoids help the vitamin C to be used effectively by the body. They also lengthen the effectiveness of vitamin C by slowing down its breakdown. ✔ Rutin Powder, 25mg: Rutin is a citrus flavonoid glycoside. It's found in buckwheat, apples, and some berries. This one most likely comes from citrus fruits. An interesting fact: Citrus Bioflavonoids, including Rutin and Hesperidin (not mentioned on the label) are also known as Vitamin P. More effective than a straight up vitamin C. Recommended.
