Science & Research/Verifiable Science

Ascorbyl palmitate is a fat-soluble derivative of ascorbic acid. Unlike the water-soluble form, ascorbyl palmitate is able to enter the lipid cell membrane.1 Vitamin C is an important antioxidant and free radical scavenger that plays well-established roles in immune function. These functions include maintaining healthy mast cell function and lymphocyte formation.2,3 C is also essential for the formation and maintenance of collagen.4 It also aids in the absorption of iron and the formation of red blood cells.5*
