Now Foods, Ascorbyl Palmitate 500 mg, 100 Veg Capsules

This is a vitamin that I never go without. The price was good, and from a brand that I trust.

I understand this is a "slow release" form of Vitamin C.

Fast delivery. Exactly what my healthcare provider ordered and seems to be making a difference in my symptoms.

I added ascorbyl palmitate (along with some other helpful vitamins and supplements) to my daily regimen many years ago when I went to a nutritionist for help with immune system problems. I have continued taking it because I definitely get sick with viruses or bacterial infections far less often, and I feel it also improve my complexion, and mental stamina and focus. While the positive effects in my particular case might be attributable to other factors as well, there are plenty of reputable studies substantiating the particular value of ascorbyl palmitate, the only form of vitamin C that can cross the blood/brain barrier. I have been taking the NOW brand of ascorbyl palmitate for well over a decade. I take a number of NQW supplements, and I have never had a bad batch. I took a star off only because I wish it were available in dark glass jars, and because there are a few additives., but I will continue to be a regular consumer of this product. Well priced and effective. Highly recommend.

If you are using this for a vitamin c serum, it needs to be ground into a finer power prior to mixing it with an oil based serum.

Love ascorbyl palmitate...have been taking this product for about 20 years and can't remember the last time I was sick. And it seems likeeveryone I tell about it and they start taking it...then don't get sick anymore either.

I love NOW products!

Good stuff. will buy again.
