■Antioxidation property: the antioxidation property of the Sodium Erythorbate is great larger than the one of cenolate (Sodium VC), has no effects to identify the Vitamin C, but it will not persuade the body to absorb and use the Sodium Erythorbate. The body culls the Sodium Erythorbate and changes it into Vitamin C inside the body.

■The USA FDA (1980) has listed the Sodium Erythorbate as the general public safety substance.
