NutriBiotic Cherry Electro-C is a buffered, effervescent, electrolyte powder delivering vitamin C and an array of highly bioavailable electrolyte minerals* in a readily soluble form. Cherry Electro-C has a natural cherry flavor and is lightly sweetened.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that cannot be produced by the body and, therefore, must be replenished daily. Vitamin C has several beneficial purposes including developing and maintaining healthy skin and bones and plays important roles in many biochemical reactions. Vitamin C provides support to the body's immune system. Additionally, vitamin C enhances the body's ability to absorb these important electrolyte minerals.

Electrolytes play several important roles in the body, including supporting functions and fluid balance. Some bodily functions and performance may be compromised if adequate levels of electrolytes are not present. NutriBiotic Electro-C provides a balance of essential electrolyte minerals to facilitate rehydration during periods of high heat and intense exercise.

NutriBiotic Electro-C is a fresh and tart, sparkling, non-caloric, vitamin C electrolyte recharge drink, providing 950 mg of vitamin C and an array of electrolytes per serving.

NutriBiotic Ascorbic Acid Powder, used in Electro-C, has a high solubility, which makes it easy to mix into water or beverages. The manufacturing procedure for the ascorbic acid in the Electro-C 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.
