Sisu Ester-C 500 mg Orange Chewable Tablets, 90 Tablets

What Makes Ester-C Different?

Ester-C is a patented form of vitamin C that differs from standard ascorbic acid. It is buffered and contains calcium ascorbate along with vitamin C metabolites, making it less acidic. Many individuals who experience digestive discomfort with regular vitamin C find Ester-C easier on the stomach. Research indicates that Ester-C may be absorbed more rapidly and retained longer in white blood cells, offering enhanced bioavailability. The Sisu Ester-C 500 mg Orange Chewable tablets provide this advanced form in a tasty, convenient chewable format, perfect for those who prefer not to swallow pills.

Each tablet delivers a meaningful dose of vitamin C in a naturally sweetened orange flavour, making it an enjoyable addition to your daily routine.

Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and helps protect cells from oxidative stress. It plays a key role in collagen formation, which is essential for the normal function of skin, blood vessels, bones, and cartilage. As an antioxidant, vitamin C neutralises free radicals and supports healthy ageing. Regular intake of vitamin C from food or supplements helps maintain these bodily functions.

While vitamin C is essential, the human body cannot produce it internally, so dietary sources or supplements are necessary. Supplementing with products like Sisu Ester-C offers a reliable way to meet your daily needs, especially when diet alone may be insufficient.

Types of Vitamin C Supplements

Vitamin C supplements come in various forms. The most common is ascorbic acid, which is effective but can be acidic for some people. Buffered forms such as calcium ascorbate (as in Ester-C) offer a gentler alternative. Liposomal vitamin C uses fat-based encapsulation to potentially improve absorption, while whole-food sources like acerola cherry provide vitamin C alongside other phytonutrients.

Chewable tablets like Sisu Ester-C Orange Chew are ideal for children, seniors, and anyone who dislikes swallowing capsules or tablets. They deliver a pleasant taste without artificial sweeteners, naturally sweetened for a clean flavour.

Recommended Dosage and Safety

The UK reference nutrient intake (RNI) for vitamin C is 40 mg per day for adults. Each Sisu Ester-C chewable provides 500 mg, a moderate supplementary dose well above the RNI but within safe limits. The tolerable upper intake level is 2,000 mg per day for adults; doses above this may cause digestive upset in some individuals. Because vitamin C is water-soluble, excess is excreted in urine, making toxicity rare.

If you have a history of kidney stones, certain medical conditions, or are taking prescription medications, consult your health care professional before uses. Store in a cool, dry place, and keep the bottle tightly closed to maintain freshness. Keep out of reach of children.
