Solgar's Ester-C Plus is a superior form of vitamin C. It is 100% acid free, and the inclusion of vitamin C metabolites (co-enzymes Lyxonic, Threonic, and Xylonic acids) and bioflavonoids, makes it the most absorbable and potent vitamin C on the market. This ensures the body absorbs as much vitamin C with as little effort as possible.
Uses: Possible Uses of Ester-C Plus:
- Immune enhancing - speeds recovery from colds and flu.
- Powerful antioxidant.
- Preserves capillary strength and lessens fragility i.e. varicosities and vascular disorders.
- Maintains collagen integrity i.e. skin elasticity, bone health.
- Promotes healing of wounds and fractures.
- Smoking dramatically increases the need for Vitamin C.
- Inflammatory digestive disorders can tolerate Ester-C Plus well as it does not increase acidity.
Dosage: Adults: Take 1 to 3 capsules daily. (Vegie caps).
Health Information: Ester-C Plus™ is exclusively formulated by Solgar and provides a patented method of supplementing pH neutral (non-acidic) vitamin C to prevent stomach irritation. In addition, Ester-C Plus™ includes the vitamin C metabolites, L- Threonic acid, L-lyxonic acid and L-Xylonic acid, that occur along with vitamin C in nature. A special manufacturing process is employed to form a unique calcium ascorbate metabolite complex.
This combination dramatically enhances cellular absorption and utilisation. Vitamin C has been associated with more than 300 physiological actions, many of which maybe due to the natural vitamin C metabolites, rather than the form of vitamin C itself. Some researchers have felt that it has been necessary to nearly 'saturate' the bloodstream with vitamin C to encourage the formation of high amounts of the metabolites to achieve certain health-giving and health-protecting functions. The level of these important metabolites in the body may not rise significantly until very large doses of some forms of vitamin C are taken in. Ester-C Plus enables a lesser dose to be ingested for the desired beneficial effects.
Safety Information: If you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication or have a medical condition, please consult your healthcare practitioner before taking any dietary supplement.
