Product Description
Heavy training blocks and travel both put real demand on your immune system, and vitamin C needs are easy to underestimate until you're fighting off whatever's going around mid-season.
Ascorbic Acid delivers pure vitamin C in two formats: 1,000mg capsules for simple daily dosing, or a 1,400mg-per-scoop powder for those who want to adjust their dose without swallowing multiple pills.
Steady Immune Support During Heavy Training – High-dose vitamin C gives your immune system extra backup exactly when travel, training load, and packed schedules make you more susceptible to catching whatever's going around.
Collagen and Tissue Repair Support – Vitamin C is required for collagen synthesis, the connective tissue your joints, tendons, and skin rely on to keep up with repeated training stress.
Antioxidant Defense Against Training-Induced Oxidative Stress – Hard efforts generate free radicals as a natural byproduct of exertion, and vitamin C is one of your body's primary tools for neutralizing them before they add to recovery demands.
Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant your body can't produce or store on its own, so it needs to come from diet or supplementation daily. It supports normal immune cell function, collagen formation, and iron absorption. The capsule delivers 1,000mg of ascorbic acid per serving, while the powder delivers 1,400mg per scoop with no other ingredients added.
How to Use Ascorbic Acid
Capsules: Take 1 capsule, 1 to 4 times daily, with meals, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Powder: Take 1 scoop daily, with a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Some people prefer starting with a smaller amount, around 1/4 to 1/2 scoop, and adjusting from there.

Pure Encapsulations Ascorbic Acid FAQ's
Everything you need to know about Pure Encapsulations Ascorbic Acid.
Heavy training blocks and travel both put real demand on your immune system, and hard efforts generate free radicals as a natural byproduct of exertion. High-dose vitamin C gives your immune system extra backup and helps neutralize that oxidative stress before it adds to recovery demands.
Yes — it's required for collagen synthesis, the connective tissue your joints, tendons, and skin rely on to keep up with repeated training stress. It also supports iron absorption, which matters if you're also managing iron status.
Capsules deliver 1,000mg per serving for simple daily dosing, while the powder delivers 1,400mg per scoop if you want to adjust your dose without swallowing multiple pills. Some people start with 1/4 to 1/2 scoop of the powder and adjust from there.
A few things to watch: it can increase urinary oxalate, so talk to your physician first if you have a history of kidney stones or kidney disease, and it enhances iron absorption, which isn't ideal if you have hemochromatosis, an iron overload condition, or are on blood thinners or certain ADHD/narcolepsy medications.
Take capsules with meals, up to 4 times daily, or the powder once daily with a meal. Splitting capsule doses across the day (morning, post-workout, evening) keeps blood levels steadier than one large dose, which matters more during multi-day training blocks or travel than any single perfectly timed dose.
