My doctor tells me that Calcium Ascorbate is the most bio-available form of vitamin C. It is non-acidic and gentle on the system. She has encouraged me to take 1000mg a day. Ultimate Ascorbate C from Source Naturels also contains vitamin D-3, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese & potassium, all co-factors that improve assimilation. I have been taking it for years. It's the best form of vitamin C that I have found.

Like the manganese in this

Like the manganese in this. The other minerals are in negligible amounts. I have found that I don’t much care for tablets. Much prefer capsules if not liquids.

My one and only issue with these tablets is their size! Get it lined up right and — no problem. Down it goes! Misaligned, and it can be a bear until one tongues it into a good place at the back of the mouth. Other than that — Good!! 👍🏻

A very good quality vitamin C, with mixed ascorbates as the ingredients. The size of the tablet is a little large, but the mg in it are great and potency great. Certainly helps with immunity. No taste to it. Not harsh on the stomach, no acidity. The effect would be cumulative.

I like that it contains zinc ascorbate.

Rewarded Review

I really like that this contains zinc ascorbate.. if you search for this and covid it acts as a zinc ionophore and helps get zinc inside the cells. Also I had read that it might be best to take on empty stomach followed by full glass of water (to reduce stomach acidity and help it get into small intestine quicker for better absorption) possibly followed immediately by a meal (to further reduce acidity) - unsure how all that works but just stating what I recently learned. For those looking for both C and zinc this is a win (and I like how it also includes some other minerals and ascorbates like manganese etc but for the zinc its at 200% so is very good. I can't swallow pills so I have to chew it up (it is pretty bad tasting) but I'm used to that. If not using the zinc ascorbate you can also use quercetin with other forms of zinc to help the zinc get into the cells. I have both now that I found this. But if this doesn't work for you then look for quercetin and the kind of zinc that you like best.
