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.
