PureWay-C® – what is it and why is it used in dietary supplements?
Vitamin C is one of the most well-known and studied nutrients in the world. But here is something most people don't know: regular ascorbic acid is absorbed quickly but disappears just as quickly from the body. Within 4–6 hours, it is gone. This means that you can take a high-dose Vitamin C supplement and still miss out on a large part of the effect.
PureWay-C® solves that problem. It is a patented form of Vitamin C that is absorbed faster and stays in the body longer – which is why Skytrition chose it for both Vitamin-C PureWay-C® and MultiUP.
What is PureWay-C®?
PureWay-C® is a registered trademark of Innovation Laboratories, Inc. and is a unique form of Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) combined with fatty acids and citrus bioflavonoids. This combination allows the Vitamin C to:
- 🟢 Be absorbed faster – into the bloodstream and white blood cells
- 🟢 Stay longer – higher residual levels over time
- 🟢 Be better utilized – more of each dose provides actual benefit
What does the research say?
PureWay-C® has been studied in comparison to standard ascorbic acid and other forms of Vitamin C. Clinical studies have shown that PureWay-C®:
- ✅ Is absorbed up to 233% faster in white blood cells compared to regular ascorbic acid
- ✅ Remains longer in plasma and leukocytes after intake
- ✅ Increases antioxidant capacity in the blood more effectively
- ✅ Is well-tolerated – gentle on the stomach compared to high-dose ascorbic acid
PureWay-C® vs. regular ascorbic acid – what is the difference?
| Property | Regular ascorbic acid | PureWay-C® |
|---|---|---|
| Absorption rate | Standard | Up to 233% faster* |
| Retention in the body | 4–6 hours | Significantly longer* |
| Bioavailability in leukocytes | Low | High |
| Stomach tolerance | Can cause irritation at high doses | Gentle |
| Patented technology | No | Yes – PureWay-C® |

What does Vitamin C do in the body?
Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that the body cannot produce itself. It plays a central role in:
- 🛡️ Immune system – supports the function and production of white blood cells
- 🔥 Antioxidant protection – neutralizes free radicals and protects cells against oxidative stress
- 🦴 Collagen production – crucial for skin, joints, tendons, and blood vessels
- ⚡ Energy metabolism – contributes to normal energy production in the cells
- 🧠 Reactivates other antioxidants – including Vitamin E and glutathione
- 🥩 Iron absorption – increases the absorption of non-heme iron from the diet
Why is bioavailability so important for Vitamin C?
Vitamin C is water-soluble and is excreted quickly via urine. This means that the body does not store it – you need a steady intake. But it also means that how quickly and for how long the Vitamin C stays in the body is crucial for its effect.
With PureWay-C®, you get more Vitamin C into the cells – especially in white blood cells, where it is needed most for immune defense and antioxidant protection.
