Ascorbic Acid SR Pellets

Product Overview

Ascorbic acid sustained-release (SR) pellets are a form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) designed to release the nutrient into the body over a prolonged period. This controlled-release mechanism is achieved by coating the pellets, which allows for a more gradual and consistent absorption of the vitamin.
