Is this about concentrated synthetic vitamin C or about the natural form? From a chemistry perspective the same, but the natural one comes in a different "package" of other substances (vitamin C complex). I wonder if the effect is the same.

There were a lot of studies on that early on but they were not really followed on. Most of the time current studies use synthetic or natural but purified enough that there is nothing else there (so the same molecule really)
