Formula
NOW®
AlphaSorb-C™ contains the Vitamin C metabolite, Threonic Acid, which has been
shown to enhance cellular uptake of Vitamin C. This buffered, non-acidic
Vitamin C supplement is superior as it also contains Alpha Lipoic Acid, an antioxidant
known to help regenerate Vitamin C in the body. Furthermore, studies suggest
that Alpha Lipoic Acid may enhance the body's utilization of Vitamin C.
The addition of Bioflavonoids as synergists helps to create a well-absorbed,
highly effective Vitamin C supplement. Vitamin C is best known as a highly
effective antioxidant that can protect the body's cells and molecules from damage
by free radicals.*
