Hi Dorothy, Yes, Vit C is an antioxidant, and if found in a plant it works differently than if used outside. Vit C is acidic and has a low pH, this is one of the factors that prevents micro-organisms from growing and anarobic bacteria/fungus from taking over. The problem is that the molecule (fatty acids) is damaged during the processing, so adding the Vit C after the damage/oxidation has occured may prevent further damage but...for the most part the damage is already done. The rest it is difficult to say because unless there is a base line with which to draw a conclusion we can't determine how the addtition of Vit C will protect you or how it will affect your product...the vitamin C may help once it is in your body...tough to say.

Also it won't be around more than three days and those will be spent in the fridge! The brand I have is Now Foods and is GMO free. dee On 17 Mar 2010, at 16:39, James Lembeck wrote: > Hi Dee, > Any time you are dealing with phospholipids (lecithin) you have to take into > account that they are a type of fatty acid, and are susceptible to oxidation > (becoming rancid fat).
