Active C is a synergistic vit C formulation featuring a proprietary, lipid-soluble form of vit C called PureWay-C®. The ingredient is backed by multiple peer-reviewed research studies showing superiority over many other popular forms of vit C, including ascorbic acid and ascorbate based formulas including the popular leading ascorbate Ester-C® brand.In addition to vitamin C, the formula also includes a proprietary blend of key citrus bioflavonoids, another powerful antioxidant and superfood powders that work alongside vitamin C to increase its absorption and supply additional health benefits in the body. Since it’s absorbed more rapidly and efficiently, users should experience faster relief and require fewer pills compared to other vit c formulations. Due to its numerous health benefits and wide ranging applications, this formula is a great candidate for use as a foundational product to take daily for overall wellness support. The powder is water-soluble so the capsule can be twisted apart and placed in a beverage for those who cannot swallow pills.
