Is this L-ascorbic Vit C?

No, it is sodium ascorbyl phosphate. It is a water soluble form of vitamin c that functions as an antioxidant. It is formed by mixing ascorbic acid with other substances to form a salt. According to research, it retains the same properties as pure vitamin c but is more stable.

Ascorbic acid is a form of vitamin c. It's toward the bottom of the ingredients list.

All vitamin C is L-ascorbic, regardless of the source, and all vitamin C supplements are synthesized from the reichstein process. Vitamin C is a specific molecular structure of 11 hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Genetic modification has nothing to do with it's structure. There is no genetic material in Vitamin C.

The bottle states "100% Aloe Vera, Fractionally Distilled Liquid from Aloe Vera Leaves".. "100% Fractionally Distilled Aloe Barbadensis Miller". No mention of ascorbic acid on label.

There is nothing I was able to find on the packaging that said anything about vitamin C. Maybe go to company website and give them a call?

Sorry! I meant Vit. C. Also 100% pure hyaluronic acid. No favorite name - I shop the internet for value and strength.

No it isnt. If you want vitamin c for its skin brightening properties then this isn't for you ( per say ) This is for moisture only. I hope this helps.

The product I reviewed is clearly marked "ascorbic acid." Most ascorbic acid contains l ascorbic acid (the active part of vitamin c) and D ascorbic acid (the inactive component of vitamin c). If you intend to use this as a drink the ascorbic acid product described will be utilized and recognized by the body as any other equivalently potent vitamin c source. If you intend to use this to prepare a skin serum it is my belief this is an excellent product for this purpose. Vitamin C is very unstable. I had to stop using commercially prepared serums because they would oxidize before I could use them. If you research this further you'll discover oxidized vitamin C serums, or serums that contain a solution of vitamin C that is too strong will do more harm than using chemically inert compounds on the skin. Check out Essential Day Spa thread on this subject-you'll probably learn more than you want to know. I hope this helps. Bonnie

I checked the actual container I bought (I had already thrown the box away) and it only lists that it contains 20% L-Ascorbic acid. It doesn't list anything other ingredient so I went on the US Patent & Trademark website to do a search for the product since it states on the back of the container that "this patented Vitamin C formulation......" but couldn't find anything but then that may have been that I wasn't searching the website properly as I am not familiar with the US Patent office. If my product had a patent I would definitely list the patent# directly on my product but this container doesn't show any patent number.

From Wikipedia: 'Vitamin C or L-ascorbic acid, or simply ascorbate (the anion of ascorbic acid), is an essential nutrient for humans and certain other animal species. Vitamin C refers to a number of vitamers that have vitamin C activity in animals, including ascorbic acid and its salts, and some oxidized forms of the molecule like dehydroascorbic acid. Ascorbate and ascorbic acid are both naturally present in the body when either of these is introduced into cells, since the forms interconvert according to pH.' http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_C

According to the label, you get "Vitamin C as Quali-C ascorbic acid." The label further explains: "Viva Labs's Premium Vitamin C features the Quali-C brand of Vitamin C which is uniquely European sourced." That's as much information as I can provide based on the label.

Hi Mr R.,It is in the form of L-ascorbic acid which is naturally occurring in food sources, unlike D-ascorbic acid which must be chemically synthesized.
