Ascorbic Acid

Vitamin C has many roles in your body and is linked to health benefits, including immune function, collagen formation, and supporting liver detoxification. It’s an essential vitamin that the body can’t produce, because of this it must be consumed in your daily diet or by supplementation. Supports your overall health every day instead of only relying vitamin C during the winter months. Ascorbic Acid is the highest dose of vitamin C you can get in any of Thorne’s encapsulated vitamin C products.
