Ester C

The newest form of vitamin C is out in the market: Ester C! This patented form of vitamin C undergoes a strict manufacturing process, resulting in a product that can provide greater benefits while minimizing the side effects.
Ester C is a unique version of vitamin C. Ester C is a special form of Calcium Ascorbate, which is a substance produced when calcium is used to buffer vitamin C. This calcium ascorbate is then processed in a specific manner, resulting in a product that contains active metabolites of vitamin C. These active metabolites are quickly absorbed by the body and transported easily to the various cells. Key metabolites, like threonate, are detected in the body and are responsible for the high levels of vitamin C achieved with the use of this medication.
Ester C offers a number of benefits to the body. Like other vitamin C formulations, Ester C promotes the development of healthy skin, eyes and joints, and also provides adequate support to the cardiovascular system. Similarly, Ester C serves as an antioxidant, protecting the body from damage caused by oxygen radicals. It strengthens the body’s immune system, helping it fight infections caused by different viruses and bacteria. A study conducted in 2002 revealed that patients taking Ester C were noted to develop fewer respiratory infections compared to those taking placebo. In patients who did develop respiratory infections, the symptoms were not as severe as those taking placebo, and the illness resolved at least a day sooner. The group taking Ester C was also noted to be less prone to developing second respiratory infections during the course of the trial.
Compared to other vitamin C formulations, Ester C was discovered to increase the rate of absorption of vitamin C in the body. Taking Ester C is associated with increased levels of vitamin C in the body. A 2006 study also revealed that vitamin C was retained longer in the white blood cells of those taking Ester C compared to those who were treated with placebo or regular ascorbic acid. The levels of vitamin C in the white blood cells remained high even after 24 hours of administration, making sure that the body is protected the entire day.
At the same time, there was also note of decreased urine loss of vitamin C with Ester C compared to other vitamin C products. Aside from this, Ester C is also gentle and less acidic on the stomach. A study in 2006 revealed that Ester C was more tolerable to patients than ascorbic acid. The development of epigastric discomfort was approximately 66% higher in the group taking ascorbic acid compared to those taking Ester C. The symptoms were also much less severe in the Ester C group.
Ester C is available in different formulations. Ester C can be bought as capsules, tablets and even as lozenges. There are also chewable tablets available for children.
Ester C gives you the same benefits as other vitamin C formulations in the market. At the same time, it gives you longer protection while decreasing the gastrointestinal side effects of the drug. Try Ester C today!
