BulkSupplementscom Ascorbic Acid Powder - Vitamin C Supplement, for Immune Support - Ascorbic Acid Food Grade, Gluten Free, 1g per Serving, 1kg (2.2 lbs) (Pack of 1)

I've used Vitamin C as a supplement for thirty years and have always reopened on it to help keep my health in top condition. This product is a loose powder (bulk) in a plastic/foil bad with a zip closure. It just doesn't get simpler than this. Its easy to use and I can scoop the exact amount of Vitamin C and put it into a fresh veggie/fruit juice I make at home. In the summer I use 5 grams a day and in the winter I bring it up to 8 or 10 grams a day depending on how sick everyone else is around me. It takes time to build up tolerance to these levels so take it slowly, please, and since the bowel tolerance is discussed ad nauseum on the net I'll not rehash it here.More importantly is that when I received it I realize that I could use this product for an entry new purpose and this is really the focal point of this review.The city I live in had changed the water treatment from Chlorine to Chloramine (a combination of chlorine and ammonia) years ago. I previous had chlorine filters so that the toxic chemical would not bother me but chorine is a very small molecule and chlorine filters just don't filter it out at all. I started noticing dryness and itching all over my skin even though I drink lots of water every dat and take fish oil supplements every day.No water purification system on the market would take out the cloramine except the super expensive ones that are just not affordable at this time. Then it dawned on me that I had read articles about people in Japan and San Francisco using Vitamin C to treat their water.I did my research and found that chloramine is alkaline (a base) and Vitamin C is an acid. If you add an acid to a base, it gets neutralized and becomes inert. Most acids are hazardous to humans but Vitamin C is safe, and necessary, for us. I guess I could have tried an experiment to try vinegar but then I would smell worse wen I got out of the tub so I didn't try that.I did try a quarter teaspoon of this purse acerbic acid (Vitamin C) in my batch water, bathed in it every dat for the past several weeks and I have had no problem with the chloramine irritating me at all. This is a great solution because Bulk Supplements on Amazon is the only place where I can get large bags of vitamin C powder so I can sprinkle in exactly how much I need, and no more and its so much less expensive this way. Its the perfect solution for me.There is no fragrance although when I first pour the vitamin c into the hot water, a tiny amount does fly away and I can smell/taste a little but its a refreshing citrus taste that is barely noticeable and is rather pleasant, so its just not a problem.I'm now highly recommending this product to everyone and have added it to my permanent reorder list.

First of all, let's take a moment and wait for all the amazing, well meaning hippies and planet earth enthusiasts to leave this review section. Go on, I'll wait tilI I hear your birkenstocks clop clop clop down the hallway before I begin. Heaven forbid anyone of them buy a product that isn't made from 100% organic and blessed by New Zealand made vegetarian duck farts. Yes this product comes from China, so by default everything is evil and cruel in the world and toxic and we're going to give ourselves cancer because it's not double certified and and kosher blessed by a rabbi's fart to boot. Wanting to use this product wouldn't have ANYTHING to do with the logic in seeing 10K plus positive reviews stating how these products have helped people (rolls eyes).Now that it's just you and I, I'll continue. I'm here because I was searching for amino acids to buy in bulk without fillers. I wanted something priced fair and pure. After all my searching, Bulk Supplements had the ideal products. The only thing that was left for me to do was scan through all the reviews to see if such products would help me. I have a connective tissue disorder so I made it a point to buy all the aminos that had an effect in regards to tissues of the body. I also bought Glutamine as I read that helped people with their SEVERE bread/wheat/carbohydrate cravings as I have severe bread cravings for that and dairy. I work out often and can never lost the extra 25 pounds because of my food addiction to wheat and dairy. After one day I felt a difference so noticeable I logged in and bought the other remaining 4 amino Acids I needed but did not buy before do to not wanting to spend so much. But since they work and it seems most of these will last 6 months to a year, I opened the floodgates and bought everyone that was unique to me. I ended up buying about 8 products on my first purchase 6 weeks ago.Coming from someone who has tried adding coconut oil, vitamins, probiotics, nothing ever seemed to make much of a difference. It wasn't until I started taking amino acids that everything moved forward for me in my health goals. THIS......STUFF.......WORKS! I also have chronic fatigue syndrome and I'm seeing progress in my energy and health. I want to add that I also bought the Potassium citrate. I can't EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW MUCH THAT ALSO HELPED ME! I work out every other day and I use the sauna for about 40 minutes. In conjunction with taking aminos and now getting about 5K (4700 the average, but I workout hard) mg of potassium citrate, I'm feeling so much better! Even in my workouts I had to increase the weight by about 20 percent on the machines I use, and I even had to add more reps onto my sets! My original workout felt like I never even worked out since taking these products! Now even with added weight and reps onto my workout regimen, I still feel like I didn't quite workout enough! But I keep my increases minimal as I don't want to go ahead to much. But I can't flipping believe how much these products have boosted what I can do in the weight room AND not feel like a gassed race horse when I'm done. This stuff is literally the MAGIC powder. And with how its helping me with regular health outside of working out and also keeping me from falling off on binge eating on pizza and ice cream, this stuff is it. I'll always be a consumer of these products.Since I already ordered 3 times from this company (LOL) in the last 6 weeks, I got three free sample products to try that I WOULD NOT NORMALLY BUY! But since they also helped, I ended up adding them onto my next order! And to those people that complained about getting the free samples being just a marketing ploy and other nonsense, BUGGER OFF! There are products I wouldn't have bothered to try but since I got to try them for free and I liked them, I added them onto my next purchase. Because they worked for ME. You're getting a product that could very well last for a month and free shipping, all you have to do is leave a review if you like it or not. Yes, what a scam bulk supplements is running (rolls eyes).As of now there are two other products I plan on ordering from them, the Melatonin and the BCAA 3-1-2 product. Again, I'm only doing this because of how much positive gains I'm seeing in my health and workout. Another bonus was I could never eat enough meat, I was always hungry for tuna, turkey, beef, I could never get enough and my grocery bill was always high. Now I can eat a normal serving of meat and I feel like I don't need anymore thanks to taking the Acetylcarnitine and the Creatine, components that are found in muscle tissue.How I take my supplements is as follows- I take one serving size amount of each one in the morning. Then in the evening I take one serving size of only the msm, ascorbic acid, acetyl carnitine, Arginine, L-Glutamine, D-Ribose, potassium citrate. I take this because of budget, I want what I have to last longer, but these products are most important in keeping my cravings at bay so I take them once more at night. You can take some of these 3 times a day it says, but I only do them all once, and what I just listed twice. If I was rich and could afford $300 in supplements every 2-3 months I'd take them 3 times day. But since I'm not I make them last :)In summary, what I take is what I feel my body needs. And I am 100% happy with the effects I have experienced. And as for odors like some people described when they open their packages, well.........Some of these are chemicals, aren't they? MSM will smell like a sulphur like smell, correct? Unless you want added scents to mask things (which I don't) I honestly have not had a problem with that. And for the foil cosing bag, what I did was go to Walmart and buy a package of the large sized mason jars and I use those to hold my amino's in. I can't see knocking off a star because of the foil bag seal. Just pour it in a wide mouth mason jar and get a measure spoon to dish it out.If you're wondering what products I've used with this company, if you're reading this review then this is the product I purchased and have in my pantry. I'm not rewriting a review for each item, so I am copying and pasting a review to use on every item I bought from them. Any other questions please ask, but I find that as a person with health issues and food issues these items have helped me beyond anything else I've ever tried.Why no voting buttons?
