Ascorbyl Palmitate, 500mg – 100 vcaps

Ascorbyl palmitate is a fat-soluble form of vitamin C, created by combining ascorbic acid with palmitic acid. Unlike standard water-soluble vitamin C, this ester form has lipophilic properties, meaning it behaves differently in the body and is able to cross biological barriers that the conventional hydrophilic form cannot. Each vegetarian capsule delivers 500 mg of ascorbyl palmitate, providing 200 mg of vitamin C — 250% of the Nutrient Reference Value — per serving.

The fat-soluble nature of ascorbyl palmitate makes it a distinct choice for those who already use standard vitamin C and are looking for an alternative format. It is particularly noted as a preferred form for transporting ascorbate into neural tissues. Because ascorbyl palmitate and ascorbic acid may act in different areas of the body, the ascorbic acid content by weight is considered less relevant than it would be with a standard vitamin C supplement.

This product comes in vegetarian capsules, making it suitable for those following plant-based diets. The 100-capsule pack provides a straightforward way to add this specialist nutrient form to an existing supplement routine.
