Buffer-C pH Controlled 500 mg
Country Life
Overview
This product provides a high dose of buffered Vitamin C with additional minerals, quercetin, and aloe vera. While the Vitamin C dosage is clinically relevant and the buffering is beneficial, the inclusion of a proprietary mineral blend and low dose supportive ingredients diminishes overall effectiveness. There is insufficient information to assess the specific benefits of all non-Vitamin C ingredients due to the proprietary blend and the very low dosing of supportive nutrients.
The Good
High dose of Vitamin C at 500mg
Buffered form of Vitamin C may be easier on the stomach
Vegetarian and gluten-free formulation
The Bad
Proprietary mineral blend makes it impossible to assess specific mineral dosages
May cause gastrointestinal discomfort in some individuals
Calcium and Vitamin C may not be properly absorbed without adequate fat intake
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals with sensitive stomachs, those seeking immune support, general health maintenance
Skip If: You have a known allergy to any ingredients or specific medical conditions where Vitamin C intake is restricted.
