Ascorbyl Palmitate -
Vitamin C, one of the most potent dietary antioxidants, provides optimal nutritional support to all physiological functions, including, notably, vascular and capillary integrity in support of the circulatory system. The ascorbyl palmitate form of vitamin C is stored in the lipid cell membrane, providing a ready store of this essential nutrient.
What Is It?
Ascorbyl Palmitate is a highly bioavailable, fat-soluble
derivative of ascorbic acid.*
Uses For Ascorbyl Palmitate
Various Physiological Support Properties: Ascorbyl
palmitate possesses all the benefits of vitamin C, but
unlike the water-soluble form, is able to be stored in the
lipid cell membrane until the body is ready to put it to use.
Vitamin C offers a wide range of support for the human
body. It is a potent antioxidant and free radical scavenger
supporting cellular and vascular health. Vitamin C has
been reported to promote nitric oxide activity as well as
to help maintain healthy platelet function. It supports the
body's defense system by enhancing white blood cell
function and activity, and increasing interferon levels,
antibody responses, and secretion of thymic hormones.
Furthermore, this antioxidant has histamine lowering
properties and increases lymphocyte formation. It is
also essential for the formation and maintenance of
intercellular ground substance and collagen, important
for joint health. Vitamin C aids in the absorption of iron
and the formation of red blood cells and converts folic
acid to its active forms.*
What Is The Source?
Ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose
fermentation and palm oil.
