Why You'll Love Ultra Potent-C® 1000 Vitamin C

Your immune system works hard every day, especially during seasonal changes and periods of stress. Ultra Potent-C® 1000 is a vitamin C supplement that provides 1000mg of vitamin C per tablet—about the same amount you'd get from eating four oranges—in a buffered formula that's easy on your stomach while delivering potent, absorbable vitamin C.*

  • Preliminary research suggests it may be better absorbed than ascorbic acid alone*
  • Provides antioxidant support to help protect your cells*
  • Helps the body absorb iron*

The Science Inside

How It Works: Most vitamin C supplements use a single form of ascorbic acid. Ultra Potent-C® 1000 combines ascorbic acid with mineral-based forms of vitamin C (like calcium ascorbate and sodium ascorbate) to reduce acidity, which is why it’s easier to digest.* By using multiple forms of vitamin C, along with key nutrients, this formulation supports your body's ability to absorb and use these compounds.*

Key Ingredients:

  • Vitamin C (1,000mg): Delivered as a buffered blend of multiple ascorbate forms for a more balanced approach to high-dose supplementation.
  • Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex (32mg): Plant compounds naturally found in citrus fruits that work alongside vitamin C, both in nature and in this formula.
  • L-Lysine (33mg) and L-Cysteine (8mg): Amino acids that complement vitamin C.
  • L-Glutathione (5mg): One of the body's most important antioxidants, included to complement the overall formula.*
  • Niacin (70mg): A B vitamin that supports energy metabolism.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most vitamin C supplements rely on a single form of ascorbic acid. Ultra Potent-C 1000, and similar forms like Ultra Potent-C® Chewable Vitamin C, combine multiple buffered forms of vitamin C with bioflavonoids, L-lysine, and glutathione, and are specially formulated to enhance absorption by white blood cells compared to regular ascorbic acid.*

Buffered vitamin C combines ascorbic acid with minerals like calcium and sodium to reduce acidity, making it gentler on digestion while still delivering high-potency vitamin C.* This may be especially helpful for people who have experienced stomach discomfort from standard vitamin C supplements, but want the antioxidant benefits of vitamin C for immune health.*

Yes. Ultra Potent-C 1000 uses a buffered formula designed to be easily digested.* It can be a good option for those wanting daily immune support without the digestive discomfort sometimes associated with standard vitamin C supplements.*

Ultra Potent-C 1000 is formulated for daily use.* Your immune system faces ongoing demands, especially during periods of stress, so consistent daily intake can help support your body over time.
