Lightbulb Hmmmm..

My Vit C has tiny beads in it... it is a capsule. Because it does not dissolve quickly, it lasts longer in the body.

Have you tried Ester-C? It does not make the stomach more acid. But it costs more. Puritan's has a generic now:

This is the one I like:

I like extended release forms, because Vit C is excreted quickly, so that if it is absorbed more slowly, then it works in the body better.

How do you know you are not absorbing the delayed action types?
