$13.95
Many people take 4000 to 10,000 mg daily of Vitamin C to protect against aging, cancer, heart attact, stroke, arthritis and cataract. But taking this much Ascorbic acid brings the body pH level to 4-4.5 - very acidic. This can irritate the kidneys and bladder and cause the loss of valuable minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, and zinc, which are essential to life. Vitamin C in mineral ascorbates are a different story. These are all neutral substances and are terrific mineral transporters and well as being ascorbate transporters. These mineral are vitally needed and they can transport the ascorbate through the cellular wall and help the mitochondria within each cell, which burn 90% of the energy of the body. Instead of losing minerals, you gain many minerals you need. Mineral ascorbates are pH balanced and do not cause the stomach irritation that sometimes Vitamn C causes.
