Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin. Unlike most mammals, humans do not have the ability to make their own vitamin C. Therefore, we must obtain vitamin C through our diet.
Vitamin C is required for the synthesis of collagen, an important structural component of blood vessels, tendons, ligaments, and bone. Vitamin C also plays an important role in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter, norepinephrine. Neurotransmitters are critical to brain function and are known to affect mood. In addition, vitamin C is required for the synthesis of carnitine, a small molecule that is essential for the transport of fat to cellular organelles called mitochondria, for conversion to energy. Recent research also suggests that vitamin C is involved in the metabolism of cholesterol to bile acids, which may have implications for blood cholesterol levels and the incidence of gallstones.
Vitamin C is also a highly effective antioxidant. Even in small amounts vitamin C can protect indispensable molecules in the body, such as proteins, lipids (fats), carbohydrates, and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) from damage by free radicals and reactive oxygen species that can be generated during normal metabolism as well as through exposure to toxins and pollutants (e.g. smoking). Vitamin C may also be able to regenerate other antioxidants such as Vitamin E. Read more…(Linus Pauling Institute)

It's the best product I've ever used highly recommended

Grade A!
I had been searching the web for a pure source of vitamin C, when I found Wholesale Nutrition the company had exactly what I needed. A great price and value, I placed my order and received a E-mail that order was received.This is a A-plus with me so many vendors on the web have to be E-mailed and E-mailed before they sent out confirmation. Wholesale Nutrition sent my tracking number in a few hours and I received my order in extremely fast time. I have found a reliable, honest supplier of health supplements!

Basic but Good
This is plain Vitamin C. Mixing with water makes this easy to take, unless you're like some of my friends who really want pills. Nothing is added in this, so I think the crystals are superior. I wish the crystals were finer so that they would dissolve in water more quickly; I usually swallow the mix before they are dissolved.
