I've always been a believer in Vitamin C to prevent and get rid of colds. (Of course the most effective way to not catch colds is to not touch your hands to anywhere on your face until you wash them after being around people or objects handled by people.)Earlier this year I learned it is important for the heart since it fights inflammation.I studied the online research by Linus Pauling, who won multiple nobel prizes. He is called the Father of Vitamin C. I wanted to mix up his specific formula for a liquid Vitamin C supplement using l-ascorbic acid, aluminum-free baking soda, and water.The quality of this L-ascorbic acid is good. I try to remember to take my Pauling liquid formula every day with each meal. I know it works, because I started to get the sore-throat symptoms when I was forgetting to take it. Since it is in the frig, it is a case of out of sight, out of mind. It was that bad sore throat where it feels like a gland getting very tender and sore. I immediately made a fresh batch and the symptoms were gone after a couple of doses. It works much faster than the vitamin C pills I took before.By the way, his formula is in grams. You can use a free converter on the Internet to convert grams to ounces and also a converter to convert to tablespoons. I then cut his formula in half so I mix it up fresh more often (lasts longer than a week). Tip: make it in a large bowl first before pouring in a bottle because the baking soda really foams up. Store it in a brown bottle to keep the refrigerator light out of it. Vitamin C is sensitive to light. Also, keep your L-asscorbic acid powder in a dark, sealed container. I roll the bag of L-ascorbic powder in such a way to force the air out as much as possible, then place it in a dark container. If you don't have a dark container, just wrap the bag in foil after rolling the bag.UPDATE: Apparently it is better not to go for cheaper L-ascorbic acid. After I used all of this brand, I bought one from a different company that gave me double the amount for a little less money. When it arrived, I noticed a slightly different texture, but it was packaged beautifully in foil that keeps out the light. However, after taking it every day for two months, I was exposed to a cold. Next thing I know, I had the worse cold I've had in years. Obviously, the product was inferior. So I recommend this one on Amazon because I never got a cold while using it.

I actually put this into my bath water. And I loved it. Topical vitamin C is so good for your skin. There are so many products for baths and face serums that advertise it, but in reality are primarily other, questionable, ingredients. Finding something that's about as close to pure as you can get in manufacturing was awesome. It dissolved very well. I put a couple tablespoons in to a full bath. I noticed a slight metallic scent but it didn't bother me at all and my skin felt very nice after a 20 minute soak. I'd like to try dissolving it into a carrier oil for my face next.

I purchased this Acsorbic Acid to make my own post-swim chlorine neutralizer spray, because paying $6 for a 6oz bottle doesn't make any sense to me when I can just make the stuff fresh whenever I'm going to swim.The bag is kind of a pain to get rezipped, but it's great at blocking out the light, which will degrade the vitamin c over time.I use 1/8tsp in a dry 2oz spray bottle, and I take a bottle of water with me, so I can mix it up the moment I need to use it. It mixes well after about 10-15 seconds of shaking, and doesn't recrystallize after being sprayed on the hair and skin. It has done well in terms of neutralizing the chlorine, so it's not a bunk product, and it leaves no residue after rinsing. I can't say that it's a definite, but it also seemed to help take the sting out of the sunburn I got while swimming.It's a cost-effective product for external applications for sure. I don't lack vitamin c in my diet but I did try a little of this powder mixed in water, and it didn't taste like death, which is nice. Give some to the pirate in your life, if they're prone to scurvy.

Good, easy to use. I use to preserve some home made seasoning and is great. better than using vinegar and mor acid. If you are going to try don't use too much in a batc. No smell

I did like this product, but it was a bit sour. I mixed it in with a combination of iced tea and lemonade to give it some balance. I didn't mind at all since this product is so healthy and good for your immune system. Im almost all out and I will be purchasing this again!
