Vita C 500 is a highly bioavailable, buffered ascorbate formula designed to deliver potent immune, antioxidant, and connective tissue support, without the gastric discomfort often associated with traditional ascorbic acid supplements. This advanced formula combines 500 mg of Vitamin C with supportive minerals and a rich complex of bioflavonoid cofactors to amplify absorption, reduce oxidative stress, and strengthen collagen synthesis. More than just a basic vitamin, Vita C 500 helps to protect cellular integrity, modulate inflammation, and maintain resilience during cold, flu, or infection seasons, all while being gentle enough for daily use.

What It Is

A mineral-buffered Vitamin C complex that is enhanced with citrus bioflavonoids, pectin, and trace minerals like zinc, magnesium, and manganese. This specialized blend is engineered to reduce GI irritation, increase cellular uptake, and provide a full-spectrum antioxidant shield against cellular damage.

What It Does

Delivers powerful, broad-spectrum antioxidant defense against cellular damage from free radicals
Provides foundational support for immune resilience and faster recovery from infection
Enhances the body's natural production of collagen for healthy skin, joints, and tissues
Helps to reduce both oxidative and inflammatory stress throughout the body
May help to shorten the duration and severity of cold and flu symptoms
A gentle, buffered formula that is easy on the stomach, making it ideal for daily supplementation

Who It’s For

Vita C 500 is ideal for:

Individuals who experience frequent infections, colds, or flu
Those in need of support for joint repair or skin health
People managing oxidative stress or other inflammatory conditions
Individuals with collagen degradation or who experience poor wound healing
Anyone seeking daily immune fortification without uncomfortable GI side effects
Athletes, older adults, or those undergoing periods of chronic stress

Active Ingredients

Serving Size: 1 Capsule

Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid and mineral Ascorbates): 500 mg
Buffering Minerals: Calcium (45 mg), Magnesium (20 mg), Zinc (1.3 mg), Manganese (0.1 mg), and Potassium (30 mg)
Pectin: 50 mg
Mixed Citrus Bioflavonoids: 50 mg, including Rose Hips, Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit, Acerola Cherry, Hesperidin, and Rutin

How it Works

Vita C 500 utilizes ascorbate mineral buffering, bonding the vitamin to minerals like calcium and magnesium, to minimize gastric acidity and allow for a gradual, stable release and absorption in the digestive tract. This superior bioavailability is further enhanced by the inclusion of bioflavonoids, which improve Vitamin C transport across cell membranes and can synergistically increase its antioxidant effectiveness by up to 50%. The addition of pectin adds a gentle prebiotic and gut-soothing effect, supporting microbiome balance while improving nutrient uptake. Together, these ingredients optimize Vitamin C’s ability to reduce tissue damage from oxidative stress, stimulate immune responses, and support wound healing.
