Calcium Ascorbate (Buffered C)

WHAT IS CALCIUM ASCORBATE?
CALCIUM ascorbate is the calcium salt of ascorbic acid, one of the mineral ascorbates. It is made up of approximately 9 parts of ascorbic acid to 1 part of calcium, which makes it a pH-neutral form of vitamin C because its natural acidity has been buffered and is thus much milder on the GI system (does not cause gastrointestinal irritation). Calcium ascorbate is thus considered "stomach-friendly" and is the preferred form of vitamin C for those who have a hard time with highly acidic foods, as well as those with a sensitive stomach.
