Research from Advances in Nutrition explains how Buffered Vitamin C (as Calcium Ascorbate) offers the protection vitamin C provides with less chance of gastrointestinal disruption; it buffers the acid that would usually be in the supplement. Supplementation with vitamin C tends to assist organ systems where the highest concentrations of this vitamin are. The highest concentrations of vitamin C are found in the brain, eye, and adrenal gland. One of the best known functions of vitamin C is its role as a co-factor for iron production and production of collagen as well as its use of lysine and proline to form collagen. This helps to promote strong connective tissues in the skin and the rest of the body. [1]
