High-Dose Buffered Vitamin C – Gentle on Sensitive Stomachs
Pure Encapsulations® Vitamin C 1000 Buffered is a premium high-dose Vitamin C food supplement formulated with a combination of mineral ascorbates rather than conventional pure ascorbic acid.
Each capsule provides:
1,000 mg Buffered Ascorbate Complex
containing:
800 mg Vitamin C
from:
Calcium Ascorbate
Magnesium Ascorbate
and:
Potassium Ascorbate
The buffered mineral ascorbate formula has an approximately neutral pH and is specifically designed as a gentler alternative for people who may be sensitive to conventional acidic Vitamin C preparations.
Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, protection of cells from oxidative stress, normal collagen formation and normal energy-yielding metabolism.*
It also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and increases iron absorption.*
With only 1 capsule daily, each 250-capsule bottle provides approximately an 8-month supply.

🍊 What Is Buffered Vitamin C?
Conventional Vitamin C supplements frequently contain:
Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic acid is acidic by nature, which may be less comfortable for people with sensitive digestion.
Pure Encapsulations Vitamin C 1000 Buffered takes a different approach.
Instead of relying exclusively on free ascorbic acid, the formula provides Vitamin C through three mineral ascorbates:
Magnesium Ascorbate
Calcium Ascorbate
Potassium Ascorbate
Binding ascorbate to minerals creates a buffered Vitamin C preparation with an approximately neutral pH.
Pure Encapsulations specifically positions this formulation as a well-tolerated option for sensitive individuals.
This makes the product particularly interesting for customers searching for:
Buffered Vitamin C
Non-Acidic Vitamin C
Mineral Ascorbates
Vitamin C for Sensitive Stomachs
or:
High-Dose Buffered Vitamin C
🔬 800 mg Vitamin C – Not 1,000 mg
The product name “Vitamin C 1000 Buffered” can easily cause confusion.
Each capsule contains:
1,000 mg Buffered Ascorbate Complex
but the actual amount of Vitamin C provided is:
800 mg Vitamin C
equivalent to:
1,000% NRV
The Vitamin C comes from a combination of calcium, potassium and magnesium ascorbates.
For an accurate product description, the nutritional amount should therefore always be stated as:
800 mg Vitamin C per Capsule
rather than 1,000 mg Vitamin C.
🛡️ Vitamin C for Normal Immune Function
Vitamin C contributes to:
Normal Function of the Immune System*
Vitamin C also contributes to maintaining the normal function of the immune system during and after intense physical exercise when the applicable additional intake conditions are met.*
This makes adequate Vitamin C intake an important part of everyday nutrition and an active lifestyle.
✨ Vitamin C & Normal Collagen Formation
Vitamin C contributes to:
Normal Collagen Formation*
for the normal function of:
Skin*
Bones*
Cartilage*
Blood Vessels*
Gums*
and:
Teeth*
Collagen is an important structural protein found throughout the human body.
Vitamin C is therefore nutritionally relevant far beyond its familiar association with the immune system.
🌿 Vitamin C for Normal Skin Function
Vitamin C contributes to:
Normal Collagen Formation for the Normal Function of Skin*
This makes Vitamin C an important micronutrient for customers interested in nutritional support for normal skin.
This authorised nutritional benefit should not be confused with cosmetic or medical claims such as treating wrinkles, pigmentation, acne or other skin conditions.
🦴 Vitamin C for Bones & Cartilage
Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of:
Bones*
and:
Cartilage*
This is particularly relevant because collagen is an important structural component of connective tissues.
Vitamin C therefore complements a balanced nutritional approach to normal bone and cartilage function.
🛡️ Antioxidant Cell Protection
Vitamin C contributes to:
Protection of Cells from Oxidative Stress*
As an antioxidant nutrient, Vitamin C forms part of the body's normal antioxidant protection system.
It also contributes to:
Regeneration of the Reduced Form of Vitamin E*
highlighting its role within the body's antioxidant network.
⚡ Vitamin C for Energy & Fatigue
Vitamin C contributes to:
Normal Energy-Yielding Metabolism*
and:
Reduction of Tiredness and Fatigue*
It also contributes to:
Normal Functioning of the Nervous System*
and:
Normal Psychological Function*
These established nutritional functions make Vitamin C relevant to everyday wellbeing beyond immune support.
🩸 Vitamin C & Iron Absorption
Vitamin C:
Increases Iron Absorption*
This makes Vitamin C particularly relevant when considering the nutritional absorption of iron, including iron obtained from plant-based foods.
Vitamin C supplementation does not replace medically indicated iron supplementation or treatment for iron deficiency.
🏃 Vitamin C & an Active Lifestyle
Vitamin C contributes to maintaining the:
Normal Function of the Immune System During and After Intense Physical Exercise*
The beneficial effect is obtained with an additional daily intake of 200 mg Vitamin C above the recommended daily intake.
Each capsule of Pure Encapsulations Vitamin C 1000 Buffered provides 800 mg Vitamin C.
The product is also included among selected Pure Encapsulations products associated with the Kölner Liste®, an initiative focused on transparency and risk minimisation for sports supplements.
