Procedure

Process: Heat citric acid to 60° C. and moisten with 8 ml of 60% malic acid solution. Allow sodium bicarbonate I to react to give monosodium citrate and malate; then allow sodium bicarbonate II and potassium bicarbonate to undergo partial reaction. Add sodium carbonate and allow partial reaction, and then dry in vacuo. Mix the resulting granules with arginine aspartate and the additives (Sweetener, aroma) and compress to give tablets.
