How it works
Thorne's Buffered C Powder is a high-quality, bioavailable form of Vitamin C designed to support overall health and wellness. Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from free radical damage and plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy immune function, promoting wound healing, and supporting cardiovascular health. It also helps to prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, contributing to heart health. While high doses of Vitamin C have been shown to enhance immune and antioxidant functions, many individuals with sensitive digestive systems may struggle to tolerate large amounts of ascorbic acid. Buffered C Powder provides a solution by combining Vitamin C with calcium, magnesium, and potassium mineral-ascorbates, creating a gentle formula that allows for higher, more effective doses without causing digestive discomfort.
This product is ideal for those looking to optimize their immune system and overall vitality, especially in times of increased stress, illness, or environmental exposure. Factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, chronic stress, pregnancy, and certain medications can increase the body’s demand for Vitamin C. Thorne’s Buffered C Powder is specifically formulated to meet these increased needs, providing an easy-to-digest, potent source of Vitamin C for individuals who require higher doses due to lifestyle or health factors.
The efficacy of high-dose Vitamin C is supported by decades of research, including the pioneering work of two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling, PhD, in the 1970s and 1980s. His studies highlighted the significant health benefits of large amounts of Vitamin C, particularly for boosting immune function and fighting oxidative stress. With Buffered C Powder, customers can benefit from these proven advantages without the digestive discomfort often associated with large amounts of traditional Vitamin C.
Thorne is committed to quality and transparency, and all products undergo third-party testing to ensure they meet strict standards. Buffered C Powder is verified to match what is listed on the label, providing peace of mind that it is free from contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, and microorganisms. This makes it a safe and reliable choice for those seeking to improve their health with a trusted and effective Vitamin C supplement.

Everything you need to know about this product.
What is Thorne High Potency Vitamin C?
Thorne High Potency Vitamin C, formerly known as Buffered C Powder, is a powdered vitamin C supplement that combines ascorbic acid with calcium, magnesium, and potassium mineral-ascorbates. This buffered formula is designed to deliver high-dose, bioavailable vitamin C while being gentle on the digestive system. Each container provides 42 scoops.
What are the key ingredients and what do they do?
Each scoop provides 2.4 g of vitamin C (as ascorbic acid), 350 mg of calcium (as ascorbate), 350 mg of magnesium (as ascorbate), and 99 mg of potassium (as ascorbate). Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that supports immune function, may promote wound healing, and may help prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. The calcium, magnesium, and potassium ascorbates buffer the vitamin C, which helps reduce the digestive discomfort that some people experience with high doses of plain ascorbic acid.
How do I take Thorne High Potency Vitamin C?
Mix 1 scoop with at least 8 ounces of water once daily, or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner. At one scoop per day the container provides a 42-day supply.
Who is this product best suited for?
It is a good fit for adults who want higher-dose vitamin C support but find that regular ascorbic acid upsets their stomach. It may be especially helpful during times of increased stress, illness, or environmental exposure, and for those whose lifestyle factors raise their need for vitamin C. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or considering this for a child, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner first.
How does this compare to other Thorne vitamin C products?
Thorne offers several other vitamin C options. Buffered Vitamin C and Vitamin C With Flavonoids come in capsule form for those who prefer not to mix a powder. Stellar C™ is another capsule option, while C+BioFizz® is a separate powdered formula. High Potency Vitamin C stands out for its buffered powder format delivering 2.4 g of vitamin C per scoop, making it a strong choice when you need a higher dose that is easy on the stomach.
