Ascorbic Acid

Although you might rely on vitamin C only during the winter months, this vitamin can support your overall health every day. Vitamin C has many roles in your body and is linked to impressive health benefits, including immune function, collagen formation, and supporting liver detoxification.* 

Because vitamin C is an essential vitamin that the body can’t produce, it must be consumed in the daily diet or by supplementation.

 Thorne’s Ascorbic Acid is the highest dose of vitamin C you can get in any of Thorne’s encapsulated vitamin C products.
