Calcium Ascorbate - 2.2 LB
Calcium Ascorbate by NutriBiotic - Biochem Research is manufactured by dissolving pharmaceutical grade ascorbic acid in a solution with calcium carbonate (mined from the earth). NutriBiotic Calcium Ascorbate is a fully reacted compound and not a dry mix of calcium carbonate and ascorbic acid.
The manufacturing procedure for NutriBiotic Pharmaceutical Grade Ascorbic Acid involves 15 steps. Vegetable starch is broken down into simple sugar (D-Glucose) by the action of heat and enzymes. The D-Glucose is converted into D-Sorbitol through hydrogenation. The D-Sorbitol is then converted into L-Sorbose through fermentation. L-Sorbose is combined with acid at low temperatures. This product is then oxidized with a catalyst, acidified, washed and dried forming L-Gluconic Acid. The L-Gluconic Acid is treated with hydrochloric acid forming crude ascorbic acid. The last involves filtering, purifying and milling the crude ascorbic acid into a fine crystalline powder.
Each teaspoon contains 4,490 mg of Vitamin C and 510 mg of Calcium.
