Vitamin C Calcium Ascorbate is pH neutral vitamin C buffered with calcium. It’s non-acidic and recommended for individuals who experience gastrointestinal problems (abdominal pain/ diarrhea) with regular vitamin C. It can also be taken at higher doses daily for therapeutic reasons without any gastrointestinal side effects. Calcium ascorbate also replenishes the calcium that is excreted in the urine due to the chelating properties of vitamin C. Calcium also allows vitamin C to remain in the cells for a longer period.
