Femme Organics Ascorbyl Palmitate Capsules

Getting enough vitamin C is important to your overall health. Maintaining high levels of vitamin C can help promote longevity. This form of fat soluble vitamin C can cross cell membranes and other biological barriers, delivering free radical-scavenging ascorbic acid to regions that would otherwise be unreachable.

Unlike ascorbic acid, which is water-soluble, ascorbyl palmitate can cross cell membranes and other biological barriers. Easy to swallow, no indigestion, great protection. You will love it!

Ascorbyl palmitate has been shown to help inhibit oxidative stress to lipids and protects red blood cells, endothelial cells and brain and nerve tissue from free radicals. Scientific evidence suggests ascorbyl palmitate can maintain high levels of circulating ascorbic acid longer than ordinary ascorbic acid. It also helps maintain intracellular ascorbic acid levels and has demonstrated greater ability to help inhibit oxidative stress and free radical damage to lipids and DNA, and inhibit glycation of proteins inside human cells compared to ascorbic acid.

Ascorbic acid makes up 40% of the ascorbyl palmitate molecule by weight; however, ascorbyl palmitate’s activity cannot readily be compared to that of ascorbic acid because the two molecules have different activities in the body.

Ascorbyl Palmitate Benefits

• Provides fat-soluble antioxidant protection
• Reaches tissue areas ascorbic acid cannot
• Maintains high levels of circulating ascorbic acid longer than ordinary ascorbic acid

Caution:

It has also been reported to get inside compromised cells that have protein coatings from pathogens etc. (where water soluble C often fails) Massive doses might cause kidney stones but many herbs and supplements can be worse like beets, rhubarb etc.

Smaller doses and moderation is the key. 1-2 500mg capsules per day is recommended. Full glasses of water are also important.
