Is the Vitamin C in this supplement in the form of L-Ascorbic Acid, D-Ascorbic Acid, or a combination of both?

Hi Mr R., It is in the form of L-ascorbic acid which is naturally occurring in food sources, unlike D-ascorbic acid which must be chemically synthesized. Hope this helps answer your question, and if you have any other questions you can reach us by responding to this comment thread or by email at amazon@vivalabs.com.

According to the label, you get "Vitamin C as Quali-C ascorbic acid." The label further explains: "Viva Labs's Premium Vitamin C features the Quali-C brand of Vitamin C which is uniquely European sourced." That's as much information as I can provide based on the label.

neither, it is all whole food vitamin c from a berry blend. there is no synthetic ascorbic acid.

The actual bottle label indicates "magnesium (as magnesium citrate) and ascorbyl palmitate" which is a fat-soluble vitamin C ester: an antioxidant used to prolong shelf life. Be aware: these capsules are +3/4" long (horse pills).

No, nothing other than Vitamin C 2500 mg. L-ascorbic acid. Other ingredients: None

The bottle shows the ingredients are: Vitamin C (as Ester-C Calcium Ascorbate), Calcium (as Ester-C Calcium Ascorbate) plus C-Sorb Citrus Bioflavonoids Complex, Citrus Bioflavonoids, Sweet Orange, Tangerine, Lime, Lemon, Acerola, Rutin, Hesperidin Complex, Naturally Occurring Vitamin C Metabolites. So no, I don't see ascorbic acid as an ingredient, but I don't know what Calcium Ascorbate is, is it the same thing?

As far as the label says it is synthesized as it do not boost that it is natural vitamin C

Hi Jonh, I don't think the lypo-spheric vit C contain ascorbic acid. Because I had no gastric distress, cramps and diarrhea. I have used this product more than a year.

As far as I know, the only ingredient is human grade vitamin C. I would contact the company just to make sure if you have any other questions or concerns.

It is in the form of L-ascorbic acid which is naturally occurring in food sources, unlike D-ascorbic acid which must be chemically synthesized. This is directly from a statement from Viva Labs.

Reading directly from the supplement facts on the back of the bottle: Vitamin A, C, D, E and 350mg phytoceramides. I hope this is helpful.

There is nothing I was able to find on the packaging that said anything about vitamin C. Maybe go to company website and give them a call?

Yes, it contains Vitamin C as "Ascorbyl Glucoside". It doesn't say what percentage but it's about half-way down the list of ingredients. I like this product.
