providing vitamin c
suitable for everyone

it says:

Vitamin C powder
as calcium ascorbate

suitable for vegetarians


so is this cool?? i hope its what i need bcuz it was a bit expensive...

Calcium salt of ascorbic acid. Be careful if you are taking more than a few grams a day, you might be getting too much calcium.

My bad, just looked up the formula. Taking 10 grams of calcium ascorbate means 1 gram of calcium. You will be fine.

now I am looking again. our product says calcium ascorbate? that is a buffered vitamin c I believe. Generally the lipsomal c recipe calls for ascorbic acid. C only needs to be buffered with calcium for those who get stomach upsets from ascorbic acid.. But that should not be a problem with lipsomal at all.

Will it work as well? I just dont know.. but I wonder if carrying calcium ascorbate in via lipsomal form is what you really want. I just dont know about moving calcium into you in this manner.

the baking soda is to reduce the acidity. If you are using a buffered product already as in calcium ascorbate, it probably wont be needed.

Can you take that bottle back and get ascorbic acid... I'm sorry, I must have it read it wrong initially.

You generally can buy distilled water in the grocery store in gallon jugs.

First, the unqualified term "vitamin C" should be qualified as ascorbic acid, sodium asecorbate, calcium ascorbate, etc. This is very important. (Please make it policy that all references to vitamin C when it is used in a treatment specify the type of ascorbate used. Otherwise, it will cause confusion.)

i just copied it from a site i was reading,for any other poor souls out there...

Seems L-ascorbic acid is the same thing as ascorbic acid so it should be OK.The L part is really a part of the official name.

I hope it works out with the blender. I haven't read about using a blender to make this... but it could be there.. I often read things quickly and miss stuff If Im not going to be taking on the project myself.
