Overview
•Buffered calcium ascorbate is generally gentler than pure ascorbic acid, but the recommended 3 softgels daily may still cause stomach upset in sensitive users.
•The label advises caution if you have a history of kidney stones; higher vitamin C intakes can increase urinary oxalate in susceptible people.
•Each serving contains gelatin, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans and may matter for those avoiding animal-derived ingredients.
•No major stimulant or sedative interactions are expected, but vitamin C can interact with some lab tests and may affect iron absorption in susceptible users.
•Pregnant or breastfeeding users are told to consult a healthcare practitioner before use.
•Contains citrus bioflavonoids and fruit extracts, which may be relevant for users with citrus sensitivity.
