Overview
A scoop of powder stirred into water is how a buyer uses these NOW Foods vitamin C crystals. The listing calls it ascorbic acid with antioxidant protection and notes that vitamin C helps in the growth, development and repair of body tissues.
Pure powder gives the freedom to set your own dose and mix it into drinks, and it needs no capsule shell. The limitation is that the powder is unflavored and acidic in taste, and nothing in the data names a serving size or scoop.
Who it's for
A person who prefers to scale a vitamin C dose up or down, and who is comfortable measuring powder, will find the crystals useful. A buyer who wants a ready flavored drink, or who cannot measure accurately, should choose a capsule or tablet.
Pros and cons
- Dose set by you
- Vegan and vegetarian
- No capsule shell
- Serving size not listed
- Tart taste when mixed
- Needs a measuring scoop
Performance notes
Crystals dissolve in water, so the dose depends on how much you measure. Ascorbic acid is sour, which shapes how it tastes in plain water. Scoop and directions are not given, so use the label.
