You know vitamin C is important—but did you know most ascorbic acid pills on the market don’t absorb well, irritate your stomach, or contain hidden additives?
If you’re taking vitamin C but still getting sick often, feeling fatigued, or struggling with inflammation… it might be time to upgrade your source.
Here’s what you need to know—and what Dr Olz recommends for real results.
What Is Ascorbic Acid?
Ascorbic acid is the scientific name for vitamin C—a powerful antioxidant and immune booster that supports:
- Immune defense
- Collagen production (skin, joints, blood vessels)
- Iron absorption
- Cellular repair and inflammation control
- Adrenal and hormone health
But the form matters. A lot.
Why Most Ascorbic Acid Pills Disappoint
Many over-the-counter vitamin C pills are:
- Poorly absorbed
- Harsh on the stomach (acidic)
- Packed with synthetic fillers
- Low potency or degraded by the time you take them
So even if you’re “taking vitamin C,” your body might not actually be using it.
