Product Description
Vitakruid Buffered Vitamin C® delivers a powerful blend of essential nutrients that work together to optimise your immune system. Thanks to its buffered form—as calcium/magnesium ascorbate—this formula is gentle on your stomach, so you can take high doses of vitamin C without concern. Vitamin C is indispensable for immune support and helps alleviate fatigue, while also protecting cells from oxidative stress.
The added antioxidants—OPC, L-Glutathione, and Quercetin—further boost the formula’s effectiveness. OPC, extracted from grape seed, enhances the performance of other antioxidants in the body. L-Glutathione assists in recycling antioxidants such as vitamin C and E, and Quercetin supports the immune system while helping to regulate inflammatory responses.
Zinc, copper, and manganese have been included for their antioxidant properties, neutralising free radicals and shielding your body from oxidative stress—a key factor in maintaining a healthy immune system.
Why Choose Vitakruid Buffered Vitamin C®?
Buffered vitamin C, in the form of calcium/magnesium ascorbate, offers a mild yet effective way to ingest high doses of vitamin C without the usual risk of stomach or intestinal irritation. Traditionally, ascorbic acid—the most familiar form of vitamin C—is used in foods and supplements. Although effective, its acidic nature can lead to discomfort when consumed in large amounts.
In buffered vitamin C, the vitamin is bound to minerals like calcium and magnesium. This binding neutralises the acidity, making the supplement gentler on your digestive system. In addition, this form improves absorption, ensuring you gain maximum benefit from every dose. The result is a highly absorbable, high-dose vitamin C that is kind to your stomach.
Benefits of Buffered Vitamin C:
- A gentle form of vitamin C, ideal for sensitive stomachs
- Improved bioavailability for superior absorption
- Supports the immune system and helps reduce fatigue
- A complete formula with vitamin C, zinc, copper, and manganese for optimal immune support
- Buffered form (calcium/magnesium ascorbate) that is easy on the stomach and intestines
- Contains OPC (grape seed extract), a potent antioxidant that amplifies the effects of other nutrients
- Zinc, copper, and vitamin C combine to protect cells from oxidative stress
- Quercetin and L-Glutathione work synergistically to shield the body from free radicals
Choose buffered vitamin C if you’re seeking a robust dose without the side effects often associated with conventional forms. It’s ideal for daily use and enhances overall health.
Product Composition and Ingredients
This supplement, featuring buffered Vitamin C®, is crafted using calcium ascorbate and magnesium ascorbate to provide a balanced, easily absorbed form of vitamin C.
