PurC® Organic Vitamin C Extracts
Boost Your Organic Vitamin C!
Vitamin C is a naturally occurring compound in many fruits and vegetables. Yet, it might be a shock to learn that most vitamin C used for supplements and beverages is synthetically derived. Artificial vitamin C has become the industry norm, mostly because of the known challenges in extracting it from natural sources. For many of these ingredients, the extractable amounts of vitamin C in their raw form are neither potent enough, stable enough, nor soluble enough to be used as a commercially viable option in products. Applied Food Sciences addresses this by providing the industry with the incredible potency of PurC organic vitamin C extract.

Let’s make healthy brands better with vitamin C from nature. Organic PurC® harnesses the incredible potency of acerola cherry, which contains 70 times more vitamin C than other fruits and vegetables by weight. Meaning a little of our water-soluble 25% vitamin C extract packs a healthy punch.

The Next Move in Organic Vitamin C
While vitamin C is naturally found in many fruits and vegetables, most beverage applications use artificial vitamin C. Yet, as new organic ingredients emerge, beverage producers are finding value in branding around “organic vitamin C.”
