Product Catalog Product Catalog Providing quality nutritional supplements and personal care products for you and your family Our Story At NutriBiotic®, we are committed to helping individuals achieve healthier, happier lives by providing innovative, high quality nutritional supplements and personal care products. Our founding principle that everyone deserves good health, along with the research and recommendations of two-time Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling, PhD, inspired us to produce vitamin C products in both pure and buffered forms. Keeping in mind vitamin C is fundamental to the body and realizing individuals have varying needs dependent on diet, health, and sensitivities, we developed an array of vitamin Cs to fulfill individuals’ nutritional requirements. We also discovered there was a need for premium, plant-based protein for food sensitive individuals, so we introduced a variety of naturally flavored, as well as unflavored, rice protein powders. Our Rice Protein is gluten free, GMO free, and produced without chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, and PCBs. We later pioneered the use of grapefruit seed extract (GSE), derived from the seed and pulp of grapefruit. GSE is vegan, gluten free, and made without GMOs. You will find GSE in many of our formulas, including dietary supplements and body care. We are pleased to continue developing an ever-expanding range of quality, cruelty free formulas, created with the intent of supporting your health. We use top-of-the-line raw materials and packaging to ensure freshness and stability. In addition, we are proud to offer a 100% guarantee on our products. NutriBiotic is a GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) compliant manufacturer, and we follow a multitude of GMP and astringent quality assurance controls. Our careful attention to detail assures our customers that each and every product is produced correctly, batch after batch. For 37 years and through our constant dedication to deliver quality products, we have gained the respect and trust of thousands of natural food stores, health practitioners, and consumers.

  • How to Make Liposomal Vitamin C at Home (Homemade Lipo-Spheric
    How to Make Liposomal Vitamin C At Home (Homemade Lipo-spheric... https://organicbiomama.com/homemade-liposomal-vitamin-c-recipe How to Make Liposomal Vitamin C At Home (Homemade Lipo- spheric Sodium Ascorbate Recipe) View all posts by organicbiomama → Liposomal Vitamin C is the most absorbable form of vitamin C however it can be very costly if you use it in therapeutic amounts frequently. On the other hand, liposomal vitamin C is not hard to make and can be very cost-effective if made at home. However, this method does not guarantee 100% encapsulation of vitamin C. Why Liposomal (Encapsulated, Lipo-spheric) Vitamin C? Liposomal Vitamin C provides much higher absorption of the vitamin by our cells compared to other forms of the vitamin. Liposomal formulation enhances the ability of vitamin C to absorb directly into cells increasing the effectiveness. Some experts such as Thomas Levy, MD, JD, say that 6 grams of liposomal vitamin C can provide equal benefits of 50 grams of intravenous vitamin C. Intravenous vitamin C treatments are expensive and time-consuming while making liposomal vitamin C is much cheaper and saves the time. So why not make our own liposomal vitamin C? Homemade liposomal vitamin C makes about 50-85% encapsulation according to a crude test, which is still an excellent uptake of vitamin C. Even at 50% encapsulation the person gets at least as much sodium ascorbate as if a person were to receive it in an IV. Which one to use: Sodium ascorbate or Ascorbic acid? Sodium ascorbate is the buffered form of ascorbic acid.

Bioavailability refers to the degree to which a nutrient (or drug) becomes available to the target tissue after it has been administered. We reviewed the literature for the results of scientific research on the bioavailability of different forms of vitamin C. Natural vs. synthetic l-ascorbic acid Natural and synthetic L-ascorbic acid are chemically identical, and there are no known differences in their biological activity. The possibility that the bioavailability of L-ascorbic acid from natural sources might differ from that of synthetic ascorbic acid was investigated in at least two human studies, and no clinically significant differences were observed. A study of 12 males (6 smokers and 6 nonsmokers) found the bioavailability of synthetic ascorbic acid (powder administered in water) to be slightly superior to that of orange juice, based on blood levels of ascorbic acid, and not different based on ascorbic acid in leukocytes (white blood cells) (1). A study in 68 male nonsmokers found that ascorbic acid consumed in cooked broccoli, orange juice, orange slices, and as synthetic ascorbic acid tablets are equally bioavailable, as measured by plasma ascorbic acid levels (2, 3). Note added: While natural and synthetic l-ascorbic acid are chemically identical, most ‘ascorbic acid’ or ‘vitamin C’ that is sold is 50% l-form and 50% d-form.

  • Vitamin C Background Info: Vitamin C Is Present in All Fruits and Vegetables
    Vitamin C Background Info: Vitamin C is present in all fruits and vegetables. Vitamin C rich foods are also rich in compounds such as flavonoids and carotenes that enhance the effects of vitamin C and exert favorable effects of their own on the body. While most people think that oranges and orange juice are the best food sources of vitamin C, this is not the case, as many vegetables and some fruits contain more vitamin C than oranges –such as red peppers, kale, parsley, and broccoli. Stability: Vitamin C is very reactive and is destroyed by light, oxygen in the air, heat, and water. Absorption: The larger the dose, the less is absorbed -- unless there is great need as in times of illness or stress. For example, almost 100% of a 200 mg dose of vitamin C is absorbed, but only about 50 % of a 2,000 mg dose is absorbed. This is why it is recommended that a person take divided doses of vitamin C throughout the day, rather than one big dose. Structure/Function Statements • During stress, the vitamin C stored in the adrenal glands is used up. Stressful situations increase metabolism. Tissue requirements for vitamin C are increased during increased metabolism.8 • Vitamin C prevents the release of histamine from mast cells, by stabilizing mast cell membranes.1 • Vitamin C is one of the body’s most important antioxidants. Vitamin C is important in regenerating other important antioxidants, among which are vitamin E and glutathione.2 • Vitamin C contributes to optimal health by strengthening capillaries, due to its role in collagen formation.3 • Vitamin C is necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system.3 Forms of Vitamin C Natural vs.

  • The Many Faces of Vitamin C
    The Many Faces of Vitamin C Board Certified Cardiologist Dr Thomas Levy MD JD June, 2005 A question that has been presented to me numerous times since the publication of my book, Curing the Incurable: Vitamin C, Infectious Diseases, and Toxins, is "What kind of vitamin C should I take, and why?" It is a very good question, indeed, as the variable effects on both short-term and long-term clinical outcomes can be dramatic. It should first be emphasized that all of the forms of vitamin C share the characteristic of having a positively-charged cation and a negatively-charged anion in the dissolved form. Ascorbic acid is the hydrogen ion with the ascorbate anion; sodium ascorbate is the sodium ion with the ascorbate anion; calcium ascorbate is the calcium ion with the ascorbate anion; and so on. It is now readily apparent that all forms of vitamin C share the characteristic of having the ascorbate anion. In fact, it is the ascorbate anion that is the electron-donating, clinically active portion of all vitamin C preparations. However, the companion cations can have significant biological impacts as well, and this needs to be considered when choosing the best forms of supplementation for both short-term and long-term needs. Mineral Ascorbates The lion's share of all forms of vitamin C come as mineral ascorbates. The most common mineral ascorbates used in vitamin C supplementation include the following: Sodium ascorbate Calcium ascorbate Magnesium ascorbate Potassium ascorbate Manganese ascorbate Zinc ascorbate Molybdenum ascorbate Chromium ascorbate Sodium ascorbate is probably the best and certainly the least expensive of the mineral ascorbates for regular supplementation at relatively high doses (six grams or more daily).
