Ester-C 500 con Bioflavonoides Cítricos - Vegetariano

What makes Ester-C Vitamin C special?

Ester-C Vitamin C is a patented and revolutionary form of Vitamin C. Unlike standard ascorbic acid, which can be acidic and harsh on the stomach, Ester-C is made using a unique process that makes it a non-acidic formula. This means it is much gentler and more tolerable, even for people with sensitive stomachs. In addition, this supplement includes citrus bioflavonoids, natural compounds that enhance Vitamin C absorption and boost its action in the body.

The product is 100% vegetarian, making it suitable for those following plant-based diets. Its easy-to-swallow tablet presentation allows for convenient daily intake. Thanks to its sustained-release profile, it provides continuous immune support for 24 hours, helping to maintain the body's defenses in optimal condition.

Benefits backed by the EFSA

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with scientifically recognized benefits. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has authorized the following health claims for Vitamin C:

• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.

These claims apply to all forms of Vitamin C, including Ester-C. By incorporating this supplement into your daily routine, you can effectively support your immune system. Remember that food supplements should not replace a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Recommended dosage and usage tips

Each package contains 60 tablets. The recommended adult dose is one tablet per day, providing a two-month supply. Each tablet provides 500 mg of Vitamin C, an amount higher than the reference intake (80 mg/day) which may be beneficial in situations of increased demand, such as seasonal changes, stress, or intense physical activity. Take the tablet with plenty of water, preferably during a meal to aid digestion. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep the product out of the reach of young children.

Ester-C vs. conventional ascorbic acid

The main difference lies in its pH. Ascorbic acid has an acidic pH, which can cause stomach irritation at high doses. Ester-C, on the other hand, has a neutral pH, making it much gentler. In addition, studies indicate that Ester-C is absorbed more efficiently and remains longer in body tissues. This translates into better nutrient utilization. The added citrus bioflavonoids further enhance this action.

The synergy of bioflavonoids

Citrus bioflavonoids are plant pigments found in citrus fruits that act synergistically with Vitamin C. Studies suggest that they improve the intestinal absorption of the vitamin and prolong its action in the body. In addition, they themselves have antioxidant properties. By combining Ester-C with bioflavonoids, this supplement offers a more complete and effective formula than Vitamin C alone.

This supplement is ideal for anyone who wants to boost their Vitamin C intake gently and effectively. It is especially useful for:

• People with sensitive stomachs who cannot tolerate ascorbic acid.
• Those seeking additional immune support, especially in autumn and winter.
• Athletes or people with high physical wear and tear.
• Vegetarians and vegans who need to supplement their diet.
