Stabilizing Vitamin C

Vitamin C is highly susceptible to oxidation, temperature, moisture, high alkalinity, light and other processing conditions. When vitamin C is lost during processing and storage, finished products cannot deliver the nutritional added benefits of fortification, and manufacturers cannot satisfy the end-of-shelflife FDA requirements.

Balchem's VitashureÂ® Vitamin C can survive processing challenges and satisfy shelflife requirements, for inclusion in breads and nutrient bars. Balchem, specialists in microencapsulation, provides solutions for stability, taste masking, and protection from hygroscopicity.
