Solgar Ester-C Plus 500 mg Vitamin C (Ascorbate Complex), 100 Vegetable Capsules

Why Choose Ester-C Over Standard Vitamin C?

Regular vitamin C (ascorbic acid) can be acidic and may cause digestive discomfort for some people. Ester-C is manufactured through a special process that creates a calcium ascorbate complex with a neutral pH. This makes it significantly gentler on the stomach while remaining highly absorbable. The inclusion of bioflavonoids and whole-food cofactors like acerola and rose hips further supports your body's utilisation of vitamin C.

Key Benefits of Ester-C Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with multiple roles in the body. The Ester-C form is known for enhanced absorption and retention in cells, helping maintain healthy vitamin C levels throughout the day.

• Immune Support: Vitamin C contributes to normal immune function by supporting various cellular functions of the immune system.
• Collagen Formation: This nutrient is required for the production of collagen, a protein that supports healthy skin, cartilage, blood vessels, and bones.
• Iron Absorption: Vitamin C enhances the absorption of non-heme iron from plant-based foods, helping to maintain healthy iron levels.
• Antioxidant Protection: As an antioxidant, vitamin C helps protect cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals.
