Ester C Description
|
|
(Ester C 600 mg) Vitamin C is best known for strengthening the immune system. Studies have shown that 5 grams (5000 mg) of Vitamin C can double the rate of key activities of white blood cells, the soldiers of the immune system. Vitamin C also fights heart disease by assisting with cholesterol metabolism. Most people consume Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid, but ascorbic acid passes out of the body quickly, so little of it is absorbed. It can also cause gassiness, bloating, and diarrhea. Ester-C® is made from calcium ascorbate formulated through a patented process so that it neutralizes intestinal acids and can therefore be absorbed without discomfort. It also contains a form of calcium, which enhances absorption. Bioflavonoids exist in all plants. They occur in high concentrations in citrus plants, alongside Vitamin C. Vitamin C cannot be absorbed in the absence of bioflavonoids, and bioflavonoids have many of the same properties as vitamin C. In Ester-C®, the two work together synergistically.
Recommended Use: Take 1 to 2 capsules daily or as recommmemded by a health care practitioner.
Contraindications: Vitamin C can cause false positives in urine when testing for glucose. Not indicated for those with hemachromatosis as Vitamin C increases iron uptake.
