Properties and benefits of Ascorbyl Palmitate

The lipophilic AP is able to cross biological barriers and satisfies the tissue demand for ascorbate better than the hydrophilic form. AP should be considered as the preferred form of transport of ascorbate into neural tissues. Technically, the ascorbic acid side of ascorbyl palmitate is only 40% of the total weight. The concentration of ascorbic acid by weight has little relevance to the benefits of ascorbyl palmitate, because they work in separate body areas.
