Solgar Ester-C Plus 500 mg Vitamin C (Ascorbate Complex) - 50 Vegetable Capsules

Benefits of Ester-C® Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that performs multiple functions in the body. Solgar's Ester-C® complex combines calcium ascorbate with natural vitamin C metabolites, offering a formula specially designed to be gentle on the stomach and easily absorbed. Each vegetable capsule provides 500 mg of vitamin C in complex ascorbate form, contributing to the normal functioning of the immune system and the protection of cells against oxidative damage.

What makes Ester-C® special?

Ester-C® is a patented calcium ascorbate complex that includes vitamin C metabolites. These metabolites promote better retention of the vitamin in cells, which can prolong its beneficial effects. Unlike pure ascorbic acid, Ester-C® has a neutral pH, making it less acidic and more tolerable for people with sensitive stomachs. Additionally, its formulation includes citrus bioflavonoids, acerola extract, and rosehip, which complement its antioxidant action and improve the nutrient's bioavailability.
