The main differences are that : - 1) Mixed Ascorbates contains a small amount of?fructose (fruit sugar) as a sweetener. This may make?less suitable for people with diabetes. 2) Mixed Ascorbates come from ascorbates of magnesium, calcium, zinc, potassium and manganese rather than just from magnesium ascorbate.?? 3) Mixed Ascorbates contains flavonoids that help maintain capillary and connective tissue integrity 4) One scoop of Mixed Ascorbates = 1000mg vitamin C. One scoop of Vitamin C Powder = 803g. The reason why there is slightly more Vitamin C in the mixed ascorbates per scoop than the Vitamin C Powder is because the molecule size is smaller with the Mixed Ascorbates.
