Vitamin C is important for dogs’ immune system function and helps neutralize free radicals and protect cells from damage.
Sodium ascorbate is a form of Vitamin C that is more easily absorbed by the body, making it an ideal choice for dogs. In addition, it is non-toxic and safe for dogs of all sizes.
Although dogs can make their own Vitamin C, they produce lower amounts in times of stress or sickness. So supplementation can be beneficial.

PODCAST
Why Sodium Ascorbate?
SODIUM ASCORBATE VS ASCORBIC ACID
CEN Vitamin C uses Sodium Ascorbate, a highly effective, more easily absorbed form of Vitamin C.
It is pH neutral (pH 7.4) as opposed to acidic Ascorbic Acid (pH 3.0). Therefore Sodium Ascorbate does not irritate the intestinal tract or kidneys.
The body easily absorbs sodium ascorbate, and studies have also shown that it stays in the system twice as long as the acid form. Sodium ascorbate is the only form of vitamin C approved by the FDA for intravenous injection in humans.
Benefits
IMMUNE SYSTEM
Vitamin C is a natural immune system booster. When absorbed into the body, it helps increase the number of antibodies responsible for fighting toxins, bacteria and viruses.
ALLERGIES
Vitamin C helps relieve allergy symptoms because it acts as an antihistamine, a compound that counteracts histamine and fights inflammation.
COLLAGEN
Vitamin C helps the production of collagen, a vital tissue that promotes joint and bone health.
INTERFERON
Vitamin C boosts your Dog’s level of interferon, a natural antibody that helps fight viral infections and cancerous growths.
ABSORPTION
Supplementing Vitamin C has been linked to helping the absorption rate of other nutrients in the diet (or supplement).
ANTIOXIDANT
Vitamin C is a vital antioxidant for your Dog. They need it to maintain a healthy, lustrous coat. Vitamin C usually combines with Vitamin E to maintain their vibrant appearance.

After listening to the podcast, I really like that CEN have used sodium ascorbate, it’s better absorbed by the dog’s body, and stays in the system twice as long compared with ascorbic acid. I will be feeding this all year round! It’s so interesting that Sodium ascorbate is the only form of Vitamin C approved by the FDA for human IV use.

Started adding to my dogs CEN routine after spinal surgery.
Her recovery has been nothing short of impressive, I have CEN to thank for this.
Adding the Vitamin C to her routine has improved her nerve stimulation, and I feel she is more svhilled out and relaxed… especially when she is on her Accell Therapy Massage Mat.
Thanks again CEN, you just keep bringing it!
