That's why FREEDA uses calcium ascorbate – a buffered form that is kinder to the digestive system while still providing 500 mg of vitamin C per capsule. This form also supplies a small amount of calcium, an added bonus for bone health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Buffered Vitamin C and Why Choose It?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuffered vitamin C is created by binding ascorbic acid to a mineral, in this case calcium, resulting in a less acidic compound. This makes it ideal for those with sensitive stomachs or anyone who experiences discomfort from regular vitamin C supplements. FREEDA's buffered vitamin C is a gentle yet effective way to meet your daily needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Benefits of Buffered Vitamin C\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVitamin C is well-known for its contribution to the normal function of the immune system.
