Pure Encapsulations Buffered Ascorbic Acid Powder


Available in a convenient powder form for easy dosing, Pure Encapsulations Buffered Ascorbic Acid Powder contains a blend of vegan and hypoallergenic ingredients such as calcium ascorbate, magnesium ascorbate, and potassium ascorbate. All these are combined to create a vitamin C with a neutral pH, a buffered form designed to be gentler on the stomach while helping with vitamin C absorption.* As a potent antioxidant, the formula supports immune health.* But what else does vitamin C do? Quite a bit. The nutrient helps with white blood cell function and the secretion of thymic hormones, the small proteins involved in antibody production in the body.* Plus, vitamin C plays a role in the body’s natural collagen production, which is part of everything from skin, nail, hair, and tissue health to keeping joints in good condition.* It’s also involved in iron absorption, red blood cell formation, and the conversion of folic acid to its active form, activities that play key roles in vascular function.*

FAQs About Pure Encapsulations Buffered Ascorbic Acid Powder

Q: Why does this one say buffered ascorbic acid? A: It means the vitamin C is combined with minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium instead of being plain ascorbic acid. That usually makes it easier on the stomach, especially if regular vitamin C bothers you.

Q: How much vitamin C do you get in one scoop? A: One rounded scoop gives you 1,220 mg of vitamin C. You also get 100 mg of calcium, 60 mg of magnesium, and 20 mg of potassium from the buffered forms.

Q: Should I take it with food or on an empty stomach? A: Either is fine, but with food is usually easier if your stomach is sensitive. Since it's buffered, a lot of people do fine mixing it into water and taking it whenever.

Q: Does this help with immune health or is it just a vitamin C powder? A: Most people take it for immune support. Vitamin C also helps with collagen production and iron absorption, so some people use it for skin and gums or take it with an iron supplement.

Q: I've heard high-dose vitamin C can upset your stomach. Is this one easier to tolerate? A: Usually, yes. This one uses calcium ascorbate, magnesium ascorbate, and potassium ascorbate, which are usually less acidic than plain ascorbic acid.

Q: My doctor said to be careful with supplements while pregnant. Can I use this one? A: I'd check first. Talk to your OB or midwife before starting this one if you're pregnant or nursing.

Q: Does it interact with any medications? A: Maybe. Vitamin C can affect iron absorption and may not mix well with some medications or certain medical conditions. If you take anything regularly, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
