American Health Ester-C Vitamina C 500 mg Comprimidos Recubiertos, 225 Unidades

What makes Ester-C Vitamin C special?

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that our bodies cannot produce on their own. American Health's Ester-C formula uses a patented manufacturing process that converts ascorbic acid into calcium ascorbate, a buffered, non-acidic form. This makes it especially gentle on the stomach, ideal for those with digestive sensitivities. In addition, the natural metabolites present in Ester-C help vitamin C stay in white blood cells longer, where it is most needed for the immune system.

Benefits of Vitamin C

According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. It also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage, helping to maintain overall health. These benefits are backed by decades of scientific research. Each Ester-C tablet provides 500 mg of vitamin C, an adequate amount to meet daily needs and maintain optimal defenses.

Frequently asked questions about vitamin C

Is it better to take vitamin C in the morning or at night?

There is no ideal time; the important thing is to always take it at the same time to create a habit. Taking it with food favors its absorption and reduces any possible stomach discomfort.

Can I take Ester-C if I have a sensitive stomach?

Yes. Ester-C has a neutral pH thanks to its manufacturing process, which makes it much milder than conventional ascorbic acid. Many people with sensitive stomachs tolerate this form of vitamin C well.

Do bioflavonoids improve vitamin C absorption?

Citrus bioflavonoids are natural compounds found in the pulp and peel of citrus fruits. Some studies suggest that they may help improve the absorption and utilization of vitamin C by the body, although more research is needed. In any case, their inclusion adds value to the product.

How long does a bottle of 225 tablets last?

With a daily dose of one tablet, the bottle lasts 225 days, which is approximately 7 and a half months. It is an economical and convenient option for those looking for a long-term supply.
