Calcium Ascorbate Information NutriBiotic Calcium Ascorbate, Crystalline Powder 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. Steps 1 thru 9 (Starch Hydrolysis): Vegetable starch is broken down into simple sugar (D-Glucose) by the action of heat and enzymes. Step 10 (Hydrogenation): D-Glucose is converted into D-Sorbitol. Step 11 (Fermentation): D Sorbitol is converted into L-Sorbose. Step 12 (Acetonation): L-Sorbose is combined with an acid at low temperatures. Step 13 (Oxidation): The product is then oxidized with a catalyst, acidified, washed and dried forming L-Gluconic Acid. Step 14 (Hydrolysis): L-Gluconic Acid is treated with hydrochloric acid forming crude ascorbic acid. Step 15 (Recrystallization): The crude ascorbic acid is filtered, purified and milled into a fine crystalline powder. This is our most alkaline (buffered) form of vitamin C. Because the 10% calcium content of this product is fully reacted with and bound to the vitamin C component, there is not hint of tartness. It provides significant levels of calcium with vitamin C in a gentle, alkaline form. Helpful for those bothered by more acidic forms or people desiring a calcium boost from their vitamin C. |
