Citric Acid, scientifically known as Acidum Citricum, is integral to the metabolic pathways that fuel life. Discovered in 1784 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele from lemon juice, it bears the name "citrus" for its abundance of citrus fruits. While often recognized for its culinary applications, Citric Acid also plays a pivotal role in enhancing the efficacy of collagen supplements.
Citric Acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that occurs naturally in citrus fruits. It serves multiple purposes, including enhancing the bioavailability of collagen, supporting metabolic health, and contributing to the antioxidant defence system. The Citric Acid found in supplements is typically derived from a fermentation process, which ensures its purity and effectiveness.
