ABSTRACT:

Vitamin C preparations are currently commercially available in the form of crystalline ascorbic acid or pressed tablets. Ascorbic acid is known to have a strongly reducing action and is rapidly decomposed by light and atmospheric oxygen. Without particular protective measures, ascorbic acid is only suitable for immediate consumption.
Protective measures in the form of a completely airtight and light-protected closure have in practice prevented people from adding vitamin preparations to foodstuffs, particularly salads or fruit dishes and thus achieving both a particular taste character and a health effect.
