Vitamin C as pure calcium L-ascorbate -.
the stomach friendly vitamin C
Vitamin C 500 from Sanutrition contains vitamin C in a particularly stomach-friendly form.
Vitamin C, which is acidic in itself, is bound to calcium in a buffered, approximately
pH-neutral form, and is therefore very well tolerated even by a sensitive stomach.
Multiple physiological functions
Vitamin C is especially popular when it comes to the immune system, defenses and the cold season.
However, the multi-talent fulfills many other tasks in the organism. Thus the skin benefits from
Vitamin C because it is involved in the formation of collagen, a component of connective tissue.
The same applies to the function of teeth, gums and blood vessels. Vitamin C also plays
plays a role in energy metabolism and increases iron absorption.
It also has a supporting effect on the nervous system and psyche.

Vitamin C
Synonym(s): ascorbic acid, calcium ascorbate
Occurrence in food
While almost all animals can synthesize vitamin C themselves, humans depend on external supplies of the water-soluble vitamin. Vitamin C is widely found in both animal and plant foods, with the latter in particular sometimes containing high doses. Among animal foods, adrenal glands and liver provide the highest concentrations of vitamin C. In the plant kingdom, all fresh fruits, fruit juices as well as vegetables provide abundant vitamin C. Particularly high amounts of vitamin C are contained in acerola cherries, sea buckthorn, peppers, broccoli, green leafy vegetables, kiwi and citrus fruits. Although potatoes do not contain high concentrations of vitamin C, they can make a significant contribution to vitamin C supply due to their higher consumption. Vitamin C is very sensitive to oxidation. Heat (e.g. cooking), light (e.g. improper storage), metal ions (e.g. copper pots) and alkaline media (e.g. sodium bicarbonate) are therefore associated with partial or total destruction of the vitamin. Even with gentle meal preparation, losses of around 30% are to be expected.

Immune classic vitamin C
For colds, timely and adequate vitamin C supplementation can significantly improve the duration of illness in adults and children (7). High-dose administration of vitamin C can prevent a decrease in the vitamin C concentration in leukocytes and thereby increase their phagocytosis activity (1). Because ester C is retained long-term in white blood cells, 24-hour immune protection is provided by this form of vitamin C (8).
Allowed ascorbic acid, various ascorbates:
L-ascorbic acid, sodium L-ascorbate, calcium L-ascorbate, potassium L-ascorbate, magnesium L-ascorbate, zinc L-ascorbate
the fat-soluble ascorbyl palmitate and ester-C.
