C-Salts Original Vitamin C Powder Supplement - 100% Pure High Dose Buffered Vitamin C Powder for Immune Support - Sugar-Free Powdered Drink Ascorbate, Organic, Stomach-Friendly, Original 26oz

Great product as the Vit C is in the ascorbate form which is better absorbed vs citric acid, without the sodium or sugar that other products contain. The Lemon Lime is my favorite. I usually add a little natural lemon & lime juice to kick up the flavor a bit and it’s delish! Tried the Blood Orange but was not a fan, although many people like it. Be sure to follow the directions for use & storage to maintain the integrity of the product. I had no issues👍🏼 Great Vit C supplement❣️

Great

The very best way to dose Vitamin C, because it is pure, alkaline and also provides our most needed minerals in the ascorbate form. Mixes easy, tastes refreshing.

This buffered Vitamin C is a wonderful way to take high doses of bioavailable Vitamin C. The taste is slightly sour and bitter, but mixed with juice it's not bad. You can get much of the same benefit you get from Emergen-C but without the added ingredients. It has 4 grams (4,000 mg) of Vitamin C per teaspoon, so it is also much less expensive per 1,000 mg than Emergen-C. Health benefits of high dose Vitamin C are well documented. We use it at my house to knock out any viruses like colds or flu that are trying to take hold. It is also useful for a bowel flush. [...]Update: Beware- I had this sealed bottle go bad on me. It somehow absorbed moisture from the air and became a solid discolored mass in the bottom of the bottle with about half the powder remaining. Revising my star rating accordingly. I do live in an environment where humidity is high in the summertime, but I never expected to lose half the product this way. Still a good product, but if you live in a place that gets humid, you might want to seal the bottle in a bag with some rice to absorb moisture.

I’ve been using C salts for many years. It’s a great way to get vitamin C into your system and magnesium and also helps you go to the bathroom!

Excellent product. I was hours away from an ER visit for severe constipation, and decided to try a a vitamin c flush instead. It was unpleasant and very painful (sorry for the graphics) but not as painful as stimulant laxatives or enemas, or, heaven forbid, surgery. I was fortunate. That prompted me to research of course, because I'm not normally a constipated person and figured I'd better try to figure out what was going on. I'm glad I did. My proton pump had stopped working (I'm 58 and female) and my liver and gall bladder decided they wanted some time off too. And while my stomach was dutifully churning up my food and pushing it into the duodenum and small intestine, I suspect there were disgruntled rumblings there also. Yep, factory wide shutdown. To make a long story short, I got everyone back to work and at the risk of sounding REALLY dramatic, I feel like the vitamin c flush saved my life, or at least the misery of ER treatment and cost. It's also just a great way to get your daily vitamin c, especially if you get seasonal allergies, which was the original reason I bought it. Very helpful in that area as well. A word for the wise: if you suffer from frequent indigestion after your meals and you have IBS and/or other digestive/elimination issues please refrain from antacids and especially proton pump inhibitors until you're CERTAIN you actually have too much stomach acid versus too little. Look up how to do the home test for low stomach acid and try that first. Betaine HCL supplements are very inexpensive and the information on how to get a lazy proton pump working again is readily available. I've had tremendous success so far. Also: if you do have low stomach acid you probably also have (gasp!) gut parasites! Deploy the exterminators, lots of great products there as well. As you've probably gathered if you're still reading this, I prefer to treat myself whenever possible. While it's not for everyone, if you're the intrepid type I sincerely hope this info helps.

I have been using this for so long. I feel kind of guilty that I haven’t written a review. I have always found that the crystal form of vitamin C is not very palatable. But this is quite doable and I just put it in some water every night and another 5000 during the day and it works. My friend’s functional medicine doctor actually recommended this to her so that’s how I started using it in the first place.

Update...although the c salts did not work out for me, the customer service was great. The owner contacted me to make sure I prepared the c salts the correct way before I tested the ph (which I did several times) and he even offered a refund before our correspondence. I give the company an "A" for effort in the customer service area.Original review:I bought this years ago and did not have a problem...but this recent purchase gave me stomache distress, so I tested with a ph tester and it tested acidic, even after adding trace minerals drops (only 10 drops changes my water to alkaline). Adding 20 drops total of trace minerals (still testing acidic), and then adding an 1/8 of a teaspoon of baking soda, which moved the color on the test a couple degees (but still on the acidic scale). I then tasted this and tasted pretty much baking soda. This batch, or maybe all batches of this vitamin c could be acidic. I will not be purchasing anymore.
