Analysis

This product delivers 500mg of Vitamin C per chewable tablet, utilizing a blend of Sodium Ascorbate (buffered) and Ascorbic Acid (unbuffered) to offer a balance of gentleness and efficacy. Chewable forms are popular for their ease of use and pleasant taste, making them suitable for children and adults who dislike traditional pills. While it contains minimal carbohydrates (2g per serving) and calories, it is still an added component. Online reviews generally highlight the pleasant taste and convenience. Nutritionists might approve for convenience but would likely suggest pure forms for those seeking to avoid any added excipients.

  • Combines buffered (Sodium Ascorbate) and unbuffered (Ascorbic Acid) forms for balanced absorption and gastric comfort.
  • Lower carbohydrate/calorie count compared to many gummy options.

Cons
