Overcoming the Challenges of Natural 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.
