Natural Factors Vitamin C Calcium Ascorbate 1000mg (90 Capsules)

Natural Factors Vitamin C Calcium Ascorbate delivers 820mg of Vitamin C and 94mg of Calcium per capsule from 1,000mg of calcium ascorbate — a buffered, pH-neutral form of Vitamin C that is non-acidic and gentle on the digestive tract. Recommended for individuals who experience gastrointestinal discomfort (abdominal pain or diarrhea) with standard ascorbic acid supplements, and suitable for higher therapeutic daily doses without GI side effects. The calcium component also replenishes calcium excreted in urine due to Vitamin C’s chelating properties, and helps Vitamin C remain in cells for longer. Contains gelatin — not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. 90 capsules per bottle (90-day supply). Formulated by Natural Factors, a trusted Canadian natural health brand.

Unlike ascorbic acid, calcium ascorbate is a neutral salt — pH-neutral and significantly gentler on the stomach. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that the body cannot store, making regular daily supplementation important. As a powerful antioxidant, it protects the aqueous compartments of the body from free radical damage, supports immune function, and is essential for collagen synthesis — critical for wound healing, healthy gums, bones, cartilage, and connective tissue. The medication timing note is important: take a few hours before or after other medications or natural health products.
