NutriBiotic Sodium Ascorbate Buffered Vitamin C Capsules - 250 Capsules

What Makes Sodium Ascorbate Different From Ascorbic Acid?

Most vitamin C supplements use ascorbic acid, which is highly acidic and can cause digestive discomfort, heartburn, or stomach upset—especially in larger doses. Sodium ascorbate is a buffered form where vitamin C is bonded to sodium, creating a neutral pH that’s far gentler on the stomach. For those with sensitive digestion or wanting higher doses for targeted support, this is a well tolerated alternative. NutriBiotic’s sodium ascorbate capsules are vegan, gluten free, and Non-GM, suiting a wide range of dietary needs.

Key Benefits of NutriBiotic Sodium Ascorbate Vitamin C

Each capsule delivers a high-absorption, bioavailable form of vitamin C that helps fortify your body’s natural defence. As a powerful antioxidant, it protects cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals—ideal for active Aussies or anyone exposed to environmental pollutants. Vitamin C also supports collagen formation for healthy skin and tissue repair, and contributes to normal energy metabolism by aiding carnitine production. Adding this supplement to your daily routine helps maintain your body’s resilience and vitality.

What Is Vitamin C and Why Do You Need It?

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient your body cannot produce on its own. It plays a key role in supporting the immune system, neutralising free radicals as a potent antioxidant, and assisting collagen synthesis for healthy skin, connective tissues, and wound healing. Many people turn to vitamin C supplements to fill dietary gaps, especially during times of increased oxidative stress or seasonal immune challenges. NutriBiotic offers sodium ascorbate—a buffered, non-acidic version that’s gentle on the stomach while delivering the same immune-supporting and antioxidant benefits. With 250 capsules per bottle, it’s a convenient way to get your daily vitamin C.

How to Choose the Best Vitamin C Supplement

When picking a vitamin C supplement, think about which form suits you best. Ascorbic acid is common and affordable but can be harsh on the stomach. Sodium ascorbate provides a buffered alternative that’s gentle and effective. Look for products that are third-party tested for purity and potency, and check for certifications like vegan, gluten free, and Non-GM if those matter to you. Brand reputation also counts—NutriBiotic has been a trusted name in supplements for over 43 years, inspired by the pioneering research of Linus Pauling, PhD, a two-time Nobel Laureate who advanced our understanding of vitamin C’s role in health.

Recommended Dosage and Safety

As a dietary supplement, adults should take one capsule daily with a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Do not exceed the recommended serving size. Since sodium ascorbate contains sodium, those on a sodium-restricted diet should consult their doctor before use. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place.

Always read the label and follow directions for use. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is sodium ascorbate safe for daily use?

Yes, sodium ascorbate is safe for daily use at the recommended dosage. It’s well tolerated by most people, including those with sensitive stomachs. If you have underlying health conditions or take medications, check with your healthcare provider first.

Can I take this on an empty stomach?

Because sodium ascorbate is buffered and non-acidic, it’s less likely to irritate an empty stomach than ascorbic acid. However, taking it with food may improve tolerance and absorption.

How does this compare to liposomal vitamin C?

Liposomal vitamin C uses a different delivery system to potentially boost absorption. Sodium ascorbate is a traditional mineral salt that’s well-absorbed and gentle on digestion. Both are effective—choice depends on your preference and tolerance.
