Product Features

Formulated with "AA-2G," a vitamin C derivative developed and patented by ascorbio lab.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient vital to our bodies. However, it is highly unstable when exposed to heat, light, or air, and has the drawback that even large amounts ingested are excreted in urine within 2 to 3 hours. To address this, the late Dr. Katsuhiko Yamamoto, founder of AscorBio Research Institute and Professor Emeritus at Okayama University, developed the vitamin C derivative "AA-2G" in 1989. This derivative remains stable even in aqueous solutions. PROVITA C Granules contain this AA-2G.

Solving Vitamin C's Drawbacks

The vitamin C derivative "AA-2G" binds glucose to the part of regular vitamin C that readily reacts with oxygen, eliminating its fragility. Furthermore, once inside the body, it is slowly broken down into vitamin C and glucose by enzymes present in the intestines. This allows it to maintain high vitamin C concentrations in the body over an extended period. Each nutrient can then fully exert its inherent effects.

Furthermore, while regular vitamin C is rapidly absorbed after ingestion, temporarily raising blood vitamin C levels to a certain degree, unfortunately, even when taken in large amounts, most of it is quickly excreted from the body in urine. On the other hand, the vitamin C derivative "AA-2G" has been proven to remain in the bloodstream approximately 3 to 6 times longer than regular vitamin C. Therefore, unlike regular vitamin C, it does not require frequent intake.

Resolving Concerns About Conventional Vitamin C Formulations

Stable, sustained-release Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside, abbreviated as AA-2G) addresses concerns about conventional Vitamin C formulations, such as "Is the Vitamin C intact?" or "I'm worried about the additives used to prevent Vitamin C degradation." It also addresses the drawbacks of conventional vitamin C supplements – such as being sour and hard to swallow, unsuitable for children, or requiring water to take – by incorporating natural sweeteners and flavorings and formulating it as an easily dissolvable granule for improved palatability.
