Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 I think I know the answer to this, but I just wanted to make sure. Puritan's Pride (vitamin company) makes a Vitamin C crystal which is 5,000 mg of ascorbic acid Vitamin C. This is supposed to be for those who can't take vitamin capsules or tablets. IMHO this is probably processed in a way that the amount of Vitamin C you actually get is less. This is a synthetic version probably as well. Am I correct? What I was also wondering is how much Vitamin C are you getting say in a tsp of orange peel powder? Does anyone know? The reason I am asking is because my Homeopath suggested Puritan's Pride and I'm not sure about their products. I would think the orange peel powder would be better, but I wasn't sure how much Vitamin C you get from it. Thanks, Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 i was gonna ask the same question as you, but my question was gonna be why it contains 5 grams of carbs from sugars in it. Ive been reading alot of Vitamin C articles lately and the crystals seem to be a good choice. I do use their other products and c also but not the crystals but thinking about trying it. herbal remedies , " Lisa F.
