Is this a natural vitamin c source or a synthetic?

Most vitamin c is synthesized from corn. I try to always take vitamin c complex, that is with bioflavonoids and rutin and hesperidin (also flavonoids.) This makes it closer to the way vitamin c would occur in nature. Also, buffered c may help the absorption and utilization. If you want natural vitamin c, you have to get a supplement that has it extracted from foods, like amla, camu camu, peppers, and such. You'll pay considerably more for those and the potencies will be lower, but the natural vitamin c doesn't require as large a dose as synthetic.

HI, Some chewable Vit C can be from GMO. I don't know the source...but it helped my precancer get smaller and sustained release helps more than the chewable. Vit C from real lemon/lime/green pepper etc.. is the best. This has Rose Hips in it. 3000mg of Vit C is too much for me..nails break. 1000mg of this sustained release Vit C, twice a day is right for my body. This Vit C helps my health. Best wishes.

Your cells were not designed to deal with ascorbic acid but rather the whole vitamin C complex as this will cause a vitamin C deficiency. Avoid synthetic chemical isolates at ALL cost because they will created a deficiency of the very synthetic isolated vitamin you think is helping.

I can't definitely say but think its synthetic..I haven't used it in months so I don't have the bottle to verify. But what you can do is visit the UNA website or other authorized sellers and it list the ingredients on there. This product really does work though. Hope this helped!

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?

Totally synthetic. Considering how inexpensive the real deal is elsewhere, I would get some natural vitamin e and skip this product.

The bottle says serving size 5.4 grams (1.5 teaspoons) 302mg of Natural occurring food source Vit C 503%. I love this brand as it is MUCH better than vitamin C from ascorbic acid (which is good if you need to relieve constipation in young ones. But this Vit c is from acerola berries and doesn't cause diarrhea as with ascorbic acid.

Bottle says Ascorbyl Phosphate. You may also want to contact the manufacturer. I'm the consumer.

Bottle says "The organic vitamin C in this product is from fruits and berries certified organic by Oregon Tilth" and non GMO and no magnesium stearate as a flow agent, which I like. Nutrigold company is out of Utah.

Just a guess here Lynn, but I don't think so. It is crystalline ascorbic acid. No organisms in there, genetically modified or not.

Neither. Ascorbates are buffered with minerals. This is pure ascorbic acid.

This supplement was prescribed by my neurosurgeon for treatment of my neuropathy. It has help eased the pain on my foot, but I have to ask my doctor if the said pills are natural or synthetic. My suggestion is the to ask the manufacturer of this said supplement. Sorry I can answer your question at this point.

Considering most of its ingredients are derived from fruits, there's an unstated measure of vitamin C present. Ascorbate is a compound of vitamin C.

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.
