"This is great stuff. I add it to my self-concocted morning spirulina powder as part of my daily immune system boost and it really helps. I see sick people in the office all day long and rely on this product to help me stay healthy. The taste is no problem for me, unlike Ester-C powder (I add fresh squeezed lemon juice to the mix). We also use it in high amounts whenever we're coming down with something. It's highly effective. A great product."

"Even though the label says Buffered Vit. C powder, this supplement also has a good serving of Calcium/Magnesium/Potassium. VitaCost does not even list this product when you search for calcium but it should. I take this twice a day on an empty stomach to get my Vit C/Calcium/Magnesium/Potassium dose for the day. You mix the powder with water or juice. It tastes awful just mixed in water though."
