Prairie Naturals Vitamin C-Force Ascorbates 850mg, Buffered Non-Acidic Vitamin C with 9 Mineral Ascorbates and ORAC Fruit Blend

Prairie Naturals Vitamin C-Force Ascorbates 850mg Details

Plain ascorbic acid is cheap, effective and hard on some stomachs. That acidity is the reason buffered vitamin C exists — bind the ascorbate to a mineral and the pH climbs to something the gut tolerates comfortably, which matters if you take vitamin C daily or at higher doses.

C-Force Ascorbates takes that further than most. Rather than one buffering mineral it uses a full ascorbate complex — calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese, selenium and chromium — so the buffering minerals are themselves nutrients rather than inert ballast. On top of that sits an ORAC-rich fruit and berry blend equivalent to 2,500 mg of fruit powders, which contributes bioflavonoids and polyphenols alongside the vitamin C. In whole fruit those compounds always travel together, and there is a reasonable argument for keeping that company.

Two sizes: the standard 60-capsule bottle and a 140-capsule bonus size. Prairie Naturals has been formulating in British Columbia since 1993, without artificial colours, artificial sweeteners or unnecessary fillers.

Who Prairie Naturals Vitamin C-Force Ascorbates 850mg Is For

This suits anyone taking vitamin C daily who finds ascorbic acid uncomfortable, people supporting immune function through winter, and anyone who prefers a food-form complex to an isolated acid. The bonus size makes sense once you know it agrees with you.

If you want gram-level vitamin C for a specific reason, plain ascorbic acid is cheaper per gram — you pay here for the buffering and the fruit blend. Anyone with a history of kidney stones should speak to a practitioner before taking sustained high-dose vitamin C.
