Ester-C 500 mg Vitamin C is a specialized form of Vitamin C (Calcium Ascorbate) designed to offer two primary advantages over standard ascorbic acid: longer-lasting retention and stomach comfort.
Key Features
- 24-Hour Immune Support: Unlike standard Vitamin C, which can be processed and excreted by the body relatively quickly, Ester-C has been clinically studied to stay in your white blood cells for up to 24 hours. This provides a more consistent "shield" for your immune system.
- Non-Acidic & Stomach Friendly: Standard Vitamin C is highly acidic and can cause digestive upset or "heartburn" for some people. Ester-C is pH-neutral, meaning it is "buffered" to be gentle on the digestive tract.
- Bioavailability: The formula contains naturally occurring Vitamin C metabolites (threonate). These metabolites help the body recognize the vitamin more easily, leading to faster absorption and better cellular uptake.
Product Specifications
- Dosage: 500 mg per tablet.
- Quantity: 90 Count (typically a 3-month supply if taking one per day).
- Form: Tablet.
- Additional Ingredients: Often includes a small amount of Calcium (as Calcium Ascorbate) due to the buffering process.
Benefits
- Immune System Defense: Supports the function of white blood cells.
- Antioxidant Support: Helps fight free radicals and oxidative stress in the body.
- Collagen Support: Vitamin C is a critical component for natural collagen production, which benefits skin, joint, and gum health.
Usage Tip
Because this formula is active for 24 hours, most users find it convenient to take one tablet in the morning with a meal. This ensures you have coverage throughout the day and night.
Note: As with any supplement, it is a good idea to check with a healthcare professional before adding it to your routine, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or are taking other medications.
