Ascorbyl palmitate is an antioxidant and may help slow the progress of free radicals in the body. Ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C ester) may support the immune system; help produce collagen; support tissues, gums, teeth, and cartilage; and assist in synthesizing carnitine, which may speed up recovery time during exercise and help support healthy metabolism.
As a fat-soluble derivative of ascorbic acid, Ascorbyl Palmitate offers enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to traditional Vitamin C, making it ideal for premium supplement formulations, cosmetics, and functional foods.
