insights Analysis
Carlson's Mild C provides 500mg of Vitamin C in the form of Calcium Ascorbate, a mineral ascorbate known for being less acidic and gentler on the digestive system than standard ascorbic acid. This makes it suitable for individuals prone to stomach upset. While it is a good quality buffered Vitamin C, it doesn't include synergistic ingredients like bioflavonoids, which some other buffered options offer. Online reviews generally reflect satisfaction with its mildness. Nutritionists often recommend buffered Vitamin C for sensitive individuals, and this product fulfills that need effectively.
- Buffered form (Calcium Ascorbate) is gentle on the stomach and well-tolerated.
- Capsule form is easy to swallow.
- Provides a standard and effective 500mg dose.
- Does not include bioflavonoids or other synergistic compounds for enhanced benefits.
- Price per serving is moderate, not as cost-effective as some basic or enhanced alternatives.
- Review count is relatively lower than some leading products.
- Contains a small amount of calcium, which should be considered by individuals with specific dietary restrictions or medical conditions related to calcium intake.
