A member asked:
Can your body the same amount c-vitaming from absorb calcium ascorbate and ascorbic acid? i have problems with my stomach.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, buffered ascorbate (including calcium, magnesium and sodium ascorbate) is absorbed as well as ascorbic acid. The best-absorbed form of vitamin C is liposomal Vit. C. Lyposphreric C, which is sodium ascorbate mixed with phospholipids for enhanced absorption, is a product I often recommend.
