Antioxidant protection from NOW Foods
Threonic acid & alpha lipoic acid enhanced
Vitamin C dietary supplement
NOW AlphaSorb-C 1000 includes Transport C-PLUS, the trademarked blend of Threonic Acid Enhanced Buffered (non-acidic) Calcium Ascorbate and Alpha Lipoic Acid. It features the vitamin C metabolite, threonic acid, which has been shown to enhance cellular uptake of vitamin C. This buffered, non-acidic vitamin C supplement also delivers alpha lipoic acid, an antioxidant known to help regenerate Vitamin C in the body. Furthermore, studies suggest that alpha lipoic acid may enhance the body's utilization of vitamin C. The addition of bioflavonoids as synergists helps to create a well-absorbed, highly effective vitamin C supplement. Vitamin C is best known as a highly effective antioxidant that can protect the body's cells and molecules from damage by free radicals.
