Standard ascorbic acid is water-soluble and saturates your transporters above 200 mg. The rest is excreted within hours.
High-dose ascorbic acid is acidic enough to cause cramping, reflux, and gut irritation in most adults.
Unbuffered Vitamin C oxidises before it can do its job — turning your antioxidant into a pro-oxidant.
The Mechanism
AEGIS C™ pairs Vitamin C with calcium-magnesium buffers and bioflavonoids, allowing it to dissolve through the lipid layer of your cells — not bounce off it.
The result: higher tissue saturation, no stomach burn, low kidney-stone risk.
Stop catching every cold. AEGIS C delivers 2,021mg of buffered Vitamin C that stays active in your cells for hours, not minutes. Reduce severity and recovery time of viral infections — validated across 1,200+ clinical studies.
What you'll notice: First cold/flu you encounter hits lighter and clears faster.
No more afternoon crashes. Vitamin C is essential for carnitine synthesis — the molecule your mitochondria need to convert fat into cellular energy. Higher tissue saturation means consistent vitality without stimulants.
What you'll notice: Steady energy from morning to evening within 5-7 days.
Collagen synthesis is impossible without Vitamin C. AEGIS C's superior absorption delivers the tissue-level concentrations needed for visible improvements in skin elasticity, reduced fine lines, and joint comfort.
What you'll notice: Skin feels different within 2-3 weeks. Nails grow faster and stronger.
Vitamin C protects against oxidized LDL particles that cause arterial inflammation. Clinical trials show 6,000-12,000mg daily reduces cholesterol markers and supports healthy blood pressure.
Neurons are especially vulnerable to oxidative stress. Vitamin C's anti-inflammatory properties help protect brain cells from neurotoxic compounds and support mental clarity.
Reduces muscle soreness and cortisol levels after intense training. Athletes using 3,000-6,000mg daily report faster recovery and reduced joint inflammation.
Join thousands who refuse to settle for a Vitamin C they can’t absorb.

Vitamin C is required for the production of collagen, and those who take more optimal amounts of the vitamin enjoy improvements in their appearance; e.g., “thicker” and wrinkle-free skin, increased fingernail growth, the elimination of certain age spots and dark circles under and around the eyes, as well as better healing.
A little known benefit discovered by dentists in the 1950s is that 6000 mg daily completely prevents dental carries (cavaties).

Vitamin C Pioneer Fredrick Klenner, MD, discovered that intravenous vitamin C controls and treats viral infections in the 1940s. See: The Treatment of Poliomyelitis and Other Virus Diseases with Vitamin C
Published on May 21, 2013. Dr. William Jacobs, Jr. has determined that vitamin C kills drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) bacteria in laboratory culture. The paper was published online May 21, 2013 in Nature Communications. Dr. Jacobs is professor of microbiology & immunology and of genetics at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Jacobs is also a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. Video here.
Russel Jaffe, MD, PhD has calculated the affinity the uniquely shaped ascorbate ion (vitamin C) has for various heavy metals, and how much vitamin C is required for detox. Video here.
In the 1930s, Dr. Claus W. Jungblut, an early pioneer of vitamin C therapy, discovered that only primates and guinea pigs were susceptible to scurvy as well as anaphylactic shock, pulmonary tuberculosis, diptheritic intoxication, a poliomyelitis-like viral infection and a viral form of leukemia. None of the vitamin C synthesizing laboratory animals had susceptibility to these diseases.
Study: Intake of Vitamin C improved brain cognitive function
Recently, study was published that assessed the relationship between vitamin C intake and risk of gout in almost 47,000 men. All the men had no history of gout when they entered the study. Their intakes of vitamin C (via diet and supplements) were assessed every 4 years over a 20-year period.
Risk of gout was found to be lower in individuals with higher vitamin C intake. Compared to individuals with a total vitamin C intake of less than 250 mg per day, those with total intakes of 500 – 999 mg per day had a 17 percent reduced risk of gout. For intakes of 1,000 – 1,499 mg and 1,500 mg or more per day, the risk of getting gout was down by 34 and 45 percent, respectively.
The authors of this study also looked at the relationship between amounts of vitamin C ingested in supplement form only and risk of gout. Here again, higher supplemental levels were associated with a reduced risk of gout. Compared to those who did not supplement with vitamin C, those supplementing with 1,000 – 1,499 mg and 1,500 mg or more of vitamin C per day were found to be at 34 and 45 percent reduced risk of gout, respectively.
These results suggest that vitamin C, either from diet or supplements, is associated with a reduced risk of gout.
When blood levels are measured, the study results are consistent:
Older Brits with Highest Blood Levels of Vitamins C have Lowest Mortality Rates
A 2003 study from the UK measured Vitamin C blood levels:
These blood measurement studies (as opposed to food questionnaire-based studies) would have made Linus Pauling happy. Pauling wrote that even though he couldn’t prove it, he had become convinced that supplementing high doses of vitamin C, along with other antioxidants, might extend the healthy life span 20 to 30 years.” (ref: How To Live Longer and Feel Better, 1986)
To stave off a fast-moving infection may require higher levels of essential vitamins and minerals. Vitamin C has an essential role in empowering the immune system. Its oxidized form can be recycled by red blood cells (erythrocytes), but a fast-moving illness can overpower this system, causing vitamin C levels to precipitously drop.

Patients with COVID-19 infection also appear to have depleted vitamin C status and require additional supplementation of vitamin C during the acute phase of the disease. To date there have been 12 vitamin C and COVID-19 trials published, including five randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and seven retrospective cohort studies. The current level of evidence from the RCTs suggests that intravenous vitamin C intervention may improve oxygenation parameters, reduce inflammatory markers, decrease days in hospital and reduce mortality, particularly in the more severely ill patients. High doses of oral vitamin C supplementation may also improve the rate of recovery in less severe cases. No adverse events have been reported in published vitamin C clinical trials in COVID-19 patients.
