AlphaSorb-C®
A specialized vitamin C supplement that includes Transport C-PLUS®, a trademarked combination of threonic acid-enhanced, buffered calcium ascorbate, and alpha-lipoic acid.
Threonic acid is a vitamin C metabolite that has been shown to enhance cellular uptake of vitamin C.*
Alpha-lipoic acid is a free radical scavenger that can help regenerate vitamin C in the body, prolonging its availability, and may also enhance its utilization.*
Ascorbyl Palmitate
A highly stable form of vitamin C that is water and fat soluble, allowing it to be incorporated into cell membranes where it helps to protect from oxidative damage.* While it possesses all of the antioxidant properties of vitamin C, it also more easily penetrates the blood-brain barrier, facilitating the extension of its antioxidant protection to the brain and nervous system.*
