Ascorbate Bio-C Information
NutriBiotic Ascorbate Bio-C is an effervescent powder delivering vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), bioflavonoids from lemon, and an array of highly bioavailable minerals in a readily soluble form. Since vitamin C is not produced by the body, it must be replenished daily. Vitamin C is often found in nature accompanied by minerals and bioflavonoids, a group of water-soluble plant pigments.
When Ascorbate Bio-C is added to a liquid, the vitamin C and minerals react to create carbonation (effervescence) to form mineral ascorbates. In ascorbate form, minerals buffer the acidity of vitamin C, while combining with it to create a potent delivery system. The end result is a buffered vitamin C in liquid form, providing easy-to-assimilate minerals, as ascorbates, with a potent 50% bioflavonoid extract.
The bioflavonoid complex in this product possesses a high level of active compounds. The bioflavonoids are derived from the inner peel (albedo) of lemons. First, the peel is removed, dried, and powdered, yielding a product with 3% flavonoid activity. Then through added rigorously controlled extraction and filtration methods, the flavonoid concentration is increased to a high industry level: 50%. When you purchase any NutriBiotic product containing bioflavonoids, you will always be sure you are receiving a 50% extract.
