Not all vitamin C is the same
Most vitamin C is made in a factory. Illumined C starts with fruit.
Most vitamin C on the shelf is ascorbic acid, a single compound usually made in a factory. It does the basic job. Illumined C starts somewhere else: four organic superfruits that are among the richest natural sources of vitamin C on earth. Then Dr. Lando added two things most vitamin C doesn't have.
Illumined C starts with the fruit. Four organic superfruits, a fat-soluble form of C, and fulvic minerals, combined by a practitioner who's spent 40 years learning what the body actually uses.
The Ingredients
- 01 · Real fruitAcerola, amla, goji, and bergamot bring vitamin C along with the fruit's own plant compounds.

Figures describe the formula and the formulator's background, not clinical trial results.
Simple ingredients. Each one has a reason to be there.
Four organic superfruits
The foundation: vitamin C as nature makes it, with the fruit's own plant compounds intact. • Acerola cherry A small tropical cherry that's one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C on earth. • Amla berry Used in Ayurveda for thousands of years. It's prized for its strengthening effects on the whole body. • Goji berry A deep-red berry rich in antioxidants. It's been valued in traditional Chinese practice for centuries. • Bergamot orange A Mediterranean citrus that brings its own plant compounds, plus Illumined C's bright, clean flavor.
Vitamin C ester
Most vitamin C dissolves only in water. The ester form is fat-soluble, which is designed to let it reach connective tissues that water-soluble ascorbic acid can't.
Fulvic minerals
A natural trace-mineral complex that acts as a carrier, included to support how your body absorbs and uses the nutrients in each serving.
Birch xylitol
A light, natural sweetness from birch, so it tastes like something you want to drink every day. No artificial sweeteners.

Farm to Formula
Formulated on a farm, not in a boardroom.
Dr. Barre Lando, D.C., has spent more than 40 years in clinical practice asking one question: what does the body need to bring itself back into balance?
He formulates from an off-grid medicinal herb farm on the Smith River in Northern California, one of the cleanest rivers in America. There, he and his wife, Deborah, grow medicine in living soil. He's a master gardener, a permaculture designer, and the person who chose every ingredient on this label.

Questions before your first scoop.
Clear answers before your first scoop.
Do I need a vitamin C supplement if I eat fruit?
It depends on how much fresh produce you eat every day, and most of us eat less than we think. Your body can't make vitamin C or store much of it, so it needs a steady supply. One scoop of Illumined C is an easy way to know you're covered.
How much should I take?
One scoop a day. That's 1,200 mg of vitamin C, which is below the 2,000 mg daily upper limit set for adults.
What does it taste like?
Fresh and lightly sweet, thanks to the fruit extracts and a touch of birch xylitol. Customers call it "fresh" and "vital." Most mix it into water or juice; it also blends well into smoothies.
What does "spagyric" mean?
It's a centuries-old way of preparing plants. Each botanical is separated into its parts, purified, and brought back together, so you get the whole plant instead of one isolated compound.
What does Beyond Organic mean?
Organic is our minimum. We source from living soil: wild-harvested botanicals and organic, biodynamic, and permaculture growers, hand-selected by Dr. Lando. It's our sourcing standard, not a separate certification.
How soon will I notice a difference?
Vitamin C works as part of your daily foundation, not overnight. Take it consistently and give it a few weeks. That's why the guarantee runs a full 60 days.
Should I check with my practitioner first?
If you're pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a health condition, review the label with a qualified healthcare professional before starting.

Yes. Opened bags are covered by our 60-day money-back guarantee. If it's not right for you, email support@alfavedic.com with your order details.
