Vitamin C is an essential vitamin that your body needs for many important processes. Essential, because unfortunately, our bodies cannot produce it themselves.

It works as an antioxidant, helps in the formation of collagen (which is important for the health of your skin, bones and blood vessels) and supports your immune system.

In addition, vitamin C also helps absorb iron from plant sources and supports your energy levels.

Ascorbic acid is an acidic form and can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain or diarrhea in some people. Ascorbates are salt forms of ascorbic acid, which are less acidic.

This makes them much gentler on your stomach and they are more easily absorbed without side effects.

Most vitamin C supplements you encounter contain ascorbic acid, the most common and cheapest form of vitamin C.

Unfortunately, ascorbic acid is often treated with chemicals to improve its stability, making the product less pure.

Ascorbates such as sodium, magnesium and calcium ascorbate are less processed and therefore much more natural and less stressful for your body.

In addition, they also contain many more minerals that can contribute to a strong immune system and strong bones in your body.

Ascorbates are unique because they are more natural and effective than other forms of vitamin C.

Both sodium ascorbate, magnesium ascorbate and calcium ascorbate have a high bioavailability.

This allows your body to easily absorb and use this vitamin C.

Not only are they better absorbed by your body, they are also less processed than the popular Ester C.

Ester C is also a non-acidic form and is also well absorbed, but unfortunately, many chemical processes are used to produce Ester C, which is not ideal for your body.

Because ascorbates are less acidic than ascorbic acid, they are less irritating . This makes them not only gentler on your stomach, but also on your skin.

When absorbed properly, vitamin C can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, brighten your skin, and improve the repair of damaged skin cells.

Because vitamin C plays an important role in the production of collagen , vitamin C is important for maintaining healthy skin.

Collagen is a protein that is important for the firmness and elasticity of your skin.

Without enough vitamin C, your body may produce less collagen and you may become more susceptible to wrinkles or aging.

Vitamin C also helps as an antioxidant by neutralizing free radicals that can damage your skin from exposure to sunlight and pollution.

An antioxidant protects your skin and can therefore slow down aging and ensure that your skin becomes healthier.

Currently, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of vitamin C for adults is set at 75mg per day.

This may not seem like much, but it's enough to prevent serious deficiency or scurvy. Different values have been established for children and pregnant women.

Note: This is the minimum amount to prevent serious deficiency or scurvy. This is far from the optimal amount of vitamin C per day.

Many animals produce their own vitamin C in their liver and produce up to 13 grams (13000 mg) per day in case of illness or stressful situations.

Fortunately, vitamin C is abundant in food: bell peppers, blackberries, kiwi, papaya, kale and watercress are packed with vitamin C.
