American Health Ester-C 500 mg with Citrus Bioflavonoids - 120 Vegetarian Capsules - 24-Hour Immune Support - Non-GMO, Vegan, Gluten-free - 60 Servings

Looking for a vitamin C supplement that offers more than just ascorbic acid? American Health Ester-C provides a unique form of vitamin C that has been clinically studied for its enhanced retention in immune cells. With the addition of citrus bioflavonoids, this formula is designed to support your body's natural defences throughout the day. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that plays a key role in normal immune function, as well as contributing to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Ester-C is manufactured through a water-based process that neutralises pH, making it non-acidic and gentle on the stomach—a great choice for those who find standard vitamin C supplements irritating.

Understanding Vitamin C and Its Role

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that must be obtained through diet or supplementation. It contributes to the normal function of the immune system, normal collagen formation for healthy skin, and increased iron absorption. As an antioxidant, it helps protect cells from oxidative stress. While citrus fruits are a good source, a high-quality supplement ensures you meet your daily requirements consistently. Ester-C is a patented form of vitamin C that contains naturally occurring metabolites, which may help maintain higher levels of vitamin C in white blood cells—an important part of the immune system.

What Sets Ester-C Apart?

Ester-C is not your typical vitamin C. Its non-acidic formulation reduces the risk of digestive discomfort often associated with ascorbic acid. The inclusion of citrus bioflavonoids, naturally occurring compounds found in citrus fruits, works synergistically with vitamin C to support optimal absorption and utilisation. This combination provides sustained immune support that lasts for 24 hours with just one daily serving.

How to Incorporate Ester-C into Your Routine

The recommended dosage for adults is two capsules daily, preferably with a meal. Each serving provides 1000 mg of Ester-C along with 100 mg of citrus bioflavonoids. Vitamin C is water-soluble, and excess is typically excreted, but high doses may cause digestive discomfort in some individuals. Ester-C's gentle formulation minimises this risk. As with any supplement, consult your health care professional before starting a new regimen, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have a medical condition. Store in a cool, dry place and keep out of reach of children.
