Buffered C Select - 90 Capsules | Moss Nutrition

Buffered C Select® is a broad-spectrum vitamin C formula containing five distinct forms of vitamin C: three naturally buffered mineral ascorbates, pure ascorbic acid and food-based vitamin C from Acerola cherries. Multiple forms of vitamin C help increase the bioavailability of Buffered C Select® by giving the body a range of forms to recognize and metabolize via multiple biochemical pathways.

Most animals are able to synthesize their own vitamin C, increasing production in response to illness or injury. But humans lack the ability to make vitamin C and must depend entirely on external sources, either from food or from supplements, to meet essential needs.

VITAMIN C (ascorbic acid) is required for numerous physiological functions, notably collagen synthesis, wound healing and proper immune function. Vitamin C enhances iron absorption and is an important antioxidant in lung tissue, making it a critical nutrient for smokers and others with compromised respiratory function. Ascorbate is also required for healthy endothelial function and may play a role in preventing the earliest inflammatory changes in atherosclerosis.

BUFFERED MINERAL ASCORBATES are made by bonding USP-grade ascorbic acid to an alkaline mineral. Buffered C Select® is gentle on the stomach with a triple blend of buffering mineral ascorbates from calcium, potassium and magnesium chelates.

CITRUS BIOFLAVONOIDS are natural compounds derived from citrus peel. They exhibit anti-inflammatory activity and help the body to recycle vitamin C, extending its antioxidant lifespan. Bioflavonoids are studied to help increase capillary strength, protect blood vessels, reduce bruising and combat lipid peroxidation.

ACEROLA CHERRY contains naturally high levels of vitamin C plus natural carotenoids, bioflavonoids, B vitamins and minerals (primarily calcium and phosphorus). As a whole food source of vitamin C, acerola enhances the broad-spectrum vitamin C profile of Buffered C Select®.
