PERQUE Buffered Vitamin C Ascorbate Powder - pH Balanced, Vegetarian, Allergen-Free Vitamin C Supplement - Fast-Acting Antioxidant Support -Effervescent Powder with Magnesium, Potassium & Zinc - 16 oz

I like that it's a powder as I can't swallow large pills. It dissolves easily in water, tastes good and is very easy to use!

Perque Potent C Guard was recommended by my doctor years ago. While he's a traditional medicines doc, he also feels strongly about certain nutritional issues and one of those is the importance of high levels of vitamin C. His theory is to take as much as your body will tolerate (your body will give you that signal of too much by gastrointestinal upset).I can't argue with the man. My family and I have been very healthy throughout this time and no longer get the seasonal colds that we once did. And I'm not concerned about excess vitamin C since it's water-soluble and any excess is easily flushed from our bodies.While I think this particular brand of vitamin C powder is considered superior to many other brands and that is the reason I switched to it, I'd have to say that the taste is more of an issue for me than the others I tried. The natural effervescence of the Perque powder is the culprit, I think. Most powdered vitamin Cs that I've used have a bit of a tangy bite to them which I don't mind. This Perque powder when mixed with water has that same tangy taste -- but only as long as you swig it all down quickly. For some reason, the movement or reswishing of the glass midway through drinking gives it an awful taste. My entire family has noticed this, so I know it's not just my imagination.The recommended dose on packaging is 1/2 tsp powder to 2-4 ounces of water. However, you can take much higher amounts (I do) and the Perque website offers guidance on that. The packaging info is as follows:Vitamin C (as 100% l-ascorbates, fully reduced and buffered) -- 1,584mgPotassium (as ascorbate) -- 99mgCalcium (as ascorbate) -- 40mgMagnesium (as ascorbate) -- 16mgZinc (as ascorbate) -- 600mcg

Very nice! I decided to order this to treat what appears to be a skin fungus and bacterial infection. First, I am no expert. After many years of trying to sort out my health, I am convinced we are our own best doctors. Medical doctors and insurance have been almost completely useless to me. So I, a lay person, get by with common sense applied to what I learn from a TCM doctor, a Naturopath, books and the Internet. I'm aware there is debate as to the safety of oral ascorbic acid, but I doubt (and hope someone will correct me if I'm wrong) that studies used a buffered formula similar to this (see ingredients). For an introduction to Dr. Jaffe's research, check out You Tube. Beyond my desire to strengthen my immune system, I found other reasons to try this. One is that ascorbic acid raises urine pH, something I needed to do (based on pHydrion Vivid testing). A more alkaline pH in vitro is a less-favorable environment for fungi and cancer (based on some scientific papers I found). A surprising benefit to this has been the ability to make a paste for an infected wound with amazing effect. My advice to anyone who will listen is to only take someone's advice (doctors included ... or especially included) concerning your health after you've devoted yourself to learning how your body and health work. You'll need to be open to correcting misinformation you've accepted or told yourself to avoid a lifestyle change. While you're at it, learn about how widely pervasive glyphosate is and how likely it's one of the toxins you're living with. Then, and only after you've understood what a range of the best experts have to offer (beware the "pundits" who don't give you a lot of good science to back up what they say), learn to listen to your body. For an introduction to body pH, I like "Acid Alkaline Balance" by Barbara O'Neill on You Tube.

Best Vitamin C on the market. I have tried using ascorbic acid vitamin C for a C-cleanse and I do not recommend it🥴. Much more absorbable than ascorbic acid! 3 Triple seal on the bottle. High quality. Keep in a cool and dry place or it will start to oxidize.

Not sure how you can sell this for so much less but am thankful as it seems to be the original item and quality. It has saved me hundreds of dollars when compared to the other sellers of the same product.

Safe source for quality product

My daughter loves this product, we initially began using this product help prevent sickness during the cold months. This product ended being what helped my daughter with her acne. For years she struggled with acne, and even seen a Dermatologist. I will continue ordering this product!

This is my go to vitamin C. Dissolves easily in a glass of water. Part of my morning routine. I work in a classroom with alot of germs and it seems to keep me well.
