From the manufacturer
Product Description
Vitamin C is a key compound in the body’s “antioxidant network,” a chain of synergistic, inextricability linked, well-studied antioxidants that includes glutathione (GSH) and vitamin E. When vitamin E uses its antioxidant function in neutralizing free radicals, it also loses this antioxidant function. Vitamin C can change this status; it can regenerate vitamin E back to its native form, and is thought to “spare” glutathione in the body as well. Importantly, when ascorbate donates an electron and becomes itself oxidized, or “consumed,” the ascorbate radical is relatively harmless. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in which blood GSH was measured in healthy subjects at several stages, 500 mg of vitamin C taken daily for 2 weeks significantly raised erythrocyte (red blood cell) glutathione levels. The researchers concluded that vitamin C supplementation at that level can benefit the overall antioxidant capacity of the blood. In another study of similar design, 1000 mg of vitamin C taken daily for 4 weeks bolstered vitamin E and glutathione content in erythrocyte cell membranes, compared with placebo. The highest concentrations of vitamin C in the body are found in the central nervous system (in neurons of the brain & spinal cord) and the adrenal glands. Although the presence of ascorbate in neurons is in part explained by its neuromodulatory enzyme activity, its high concentration suggests that vitamin C is so greatly retained by neurons in order to address the higher rates of oxidative metabolism experienced by the brain. This has led to the conclusion that under normal conditions, vitamin C helps safeguard the integrity of neurons (and therefore the brain), largely through neutralization of the free radicals of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Low levels of blood vitamin C and the resulting accumulation of ROS are thought to be detrimental—especially to aging populations.

You know what I mean
Anyway, yeah, my nose isn't runny, I'm not uncontrollably sneezing and I'm not getting cold sores like it begins to do when I've tried other Vit-C brands other than Dr. Best, something I'm really relieved about AFTER seeing the huge hiked up price it's become now once back in stock! How can you do this to us?! $20?!
So, ciao bella Best for NOW!
UPDATE!
About 2 weeks into using that other reliable brand of vitamin-c, the lymph nodes in my armpit began to swell and ache pretty bad, also an area of my gums became inflamed, as well, so I decided to look elsewhere for Doctor Best again, where I found it for $13, so even though I've since made doctor appointments for both issues I began to have, after 3 weeks of being back on Doctor's Best all the swelling, aching and gum inflammation has all but disappeared now! I'm just going to stock up on DB brand so that I don't run out again because it's a far more superior vitamin-c than even that expensive Liposomal type.
