Although you might rely on vitamin C only during the winter months, this vitamin can support your overall health every day. Vitamin C has many roles in your body and is linked to impressive health benefits, including immune function, collagen formation, and supporting liver detoxification.* Because vitamin C is an essential vitamin that the body can’t product, it must be consumed in the daily diet or by supplementation.
Thorne’s Ascorbic Acid is the highest dose of vitamin C you can get in any of Thorne’s encapsulated vitamin C products.
Benefits of Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C):
Promotes optimal immune function*.
Important in collagen production, which enhances skin, nail, and hair health*.
Supports healthy tissue and cartilage formation*.
Plays a role in phase I liver detoxification, plus its antioxidant properties help protect against the toxic effects of heavy metals*.
Helps increase glutathione, a potent antioxidant necessary for supporting phase II liver detoxification*.
The benefits of collagen production, its antioxidant status, and immune support make vitamin C essential for tissue formation*.

⚠ Key cautions
Cautions: can cause diarrhea/GI upset in some individuals at gram-level doses, resolves when dosage is reduced; standard (non-liposomal) ascorbic acid form is acidic and best taken with food. Prescription interactions: no well-established interactions at publication date; high-dose vitamin C may interfere with some lab tests (glucose monitors, occult blood tests) — inform prescriber before major lab work; caution in individuals with kidney disease or history of oxalate kidney stones (vitamin C metabolizes partly to oxalate). Priority: Low risk within the UL; kidney-stone-history and renal-impairment review recommended at gram-level doses.
