Vitamin C - what form, how much?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

For those of you who use vitamin C to help with your LO's constipation, what

form (and brand) do you use and what dosage do you give? I am currently giving

DD buffered C crystals in the form of calcium ascorbate, but wondering if this

is optimal since it also contains calcium, which can be constipating. On the

other hand, I thought it might be easier on her tummy...I find vitamin C

products a little confusing to say the least!

Many thanks for your advice,

Sara

I don't know the brand but we get it from CostCo and it's Gummyvites, Vitamin C only. The dose is about 500mg.
