100% food extract, naturally buffered, superior absorption and no toxicity. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient, but when it is in an isolated and/or synthetic form, it is quite poorly absorbed and can actually adversely affect our health! According to one human study, 1500 mg (total) of isolated and/or synthetic vitamin C per day can cause iron deficiency and anemia! Ingredients: Acerola Cherry Powder. Each 1.5 teaspoon serving provides 270 mg of naturally occurring, non-toxic, highly absorbable vitamin C that is not excreted as expensive, bright yellow urine! Contains a small amount of Non-GMO maltodextrin (a complex carb- NOT sugar) as a drying medium. Most of the isolated and/or synthetic vitamin C consumed is unused by the body. What's worse, it puts a negative strain on your liver and kidneys to excrete it, and it is quite acid forming in the body! If a vitamin C is an ingredient of a product, it is synthetic and/or isolated. If it is naturally contained in the ingredient, it is naturally occurring (as it is in our product)! Ascorbic Acid and Calcium Ascorbate are synthetic/isolated forms of Vitamin C. "Ester-C" has a few elements added back to an isolated vitamin C molecule and is therefore more absorbable than Ascorbic Acid or Calcium Ascorbate. However, Truly Natural Vitamin C has all of the naturally occurring elements synergistically present and bonded (including naturally occurring bioflavonoids) because it is 100% food (100% Acerola Cherry Powder). Other products sometimes give the illusion of being totally or partially whole food products, but in reality, they actually are not! Suggested Usage 1 1/2 teaspoons or more per day of Truly Vitamin C. There is no toxicity in any amount. Store at room temperature. Mix with purifed water, fresh juice, nut milk, seed milk, or smoothies with Vitamineral Green or other foods. Net wt.: 500 g Powder

Not the same taste than other vit c powders
I was concerned about getting a non-GMO vitamin c powder, but couldn't find many options on amazon. I had ordered this one years ago and could barely finish the bottle because I really didn't like the taste, and at the time, I was just putting the powder in water. Yuck.This time, I had seen some posts on Pinterest about making your own healthy vitamin c gummies, and really wanted to make them. Back to the vitamin c powder issue. I couldn't find any others that looked good to me, so I bought this one again. I used them in the gummies and, of course, they didn't taste or look the way I had hoped. This powder is a light red/pink color, and, it just does not have that citrus flavor I was going for. My bad.So now I'm stuck with the big 500gm big bottle. I'm going to start using it in my green smoothies so the taste is disguised and I can just finish the bottle that way.If you're looking for a vitamin c powder that is non-GMO, this is good. Just be aware that it won't taste good, and is not white in color. Also, it is not organic. HealthForce Nutritionals does seem to be a good company though.

EXCELLENT Supplement/Poor packaging
This product is the FULL-FORM of vitamin C. It is a must if you have any auto-immune diseases or chronic ailments.It is an un-surpassed way to get a lot of anti-oxidants that keep you healthy and help heal auto-immune diseases.One of my packages arrived completed broken and they made me send it back instead of just showing them a picture of the broken bottle (what a hassle), another arrived cracked so I kept it, however, later to find pieces of glass in that one from the inner crack.They need to use much more bubble-wrap when shipping. I may need to use a strainer when the next one arrives just to make sure that I catch any slivers of glass :((

Low mg
Bought this because I was looking for pure, non synthetic vitamin C and I was recommended this exact product from a vegan accountant of mine. The downside is the mg in it: it is VERY LOW (302 mg per 1.5 teaspoons), so if you're doing any type of vitamin C protocol that requires thousands of mg every 24 hours, this costs a lot of product compared to other options out there. But if you don't mind it, this jar is big and has a nice amount of powder anyways.

I love this product
I love this product. I don't mind the flavor in my drink when I add this for some extra Vit. C, but it is not sweet or fruity flavored. It is a mild flavor that is hard to explain other than to say it has a twang of citric acid. I add it to veggie shakes that I make the kids for breakfast and they don't know that it is in there. I order this over and over and find it an easy way to get extra Vit C in our diets.

but I feel like I am getting V-C
Often some powder doesn't dissolve in hot water and stick to the bottom of my cup. Not sure if it is truly effective, but I feel like I am getting V-C. Sour but not too bad.

I am overjoyed that I found this product
Our local Whole Foods used to carry this, but sadly no more. All of the "vitamin C" there, save Garden of Life, is synthetically derived. No thank you! I seriously question the safety and sufficiency of isolated (and usually GMO) "vitamin C".Nevertheless, I am overjoyed that I found this product. I use it in our water bottles, in smoothies, and in our fruity herbal teas as a supplement.

The best Vitamin C!
I trust Healthforce Nutritionals 100%. Every one of their products is excellent and this vitamin C is GREAT! I really appreciate that it is not delivered with any sugar or artificial sweeteners - sugar blocks the receptor cells so the vitamin C cannot be absorbed. And the only sweetener I trust is Stevia. I enjoy the flavor so much I choose it over other beverages. I use 1.5 tsp of the vitamin C with water, lemon and stevia. It's just like having an iced tea. Try it! Your body will thank you!
