Solgar Ester C Food supplement 500mg 100 veg caps

Vitamin C is an antioxidant vitamin that is essential for the health of the body, and especially important for maintaining healthy skin. It is necessary for the effective functioning of the immune system, and exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. The main functions of vitamin C are to maintain collagen, ligaments, bones, teeth, as well as to strengthen the walls of blood vessels. It also plays an important role in the absorption of iron, which is necessary for the formation of erythrocytes, as well as in the utilization of folic acid.

Vitamin C in its natural form is easily destroyed, and remains in small amounts in foods until they are consumed.

Solgar’s Ester-C® is an innovative non-acidic form of vitamin C with integrated: bioflavonoid citrate complex, acerola, rosehip berries, rutin and the naturally occurring metabolites of vitamin C: L-threonate, L-lyxonic and L-xylonic acid.

Metabolites help the vitamin enter the bloodstream faster, in greater amounts, and with less loss, resulting in Solgar’s Ester-C® being absorbed approximately four times longer, activated twice as quickly, and remaining in the circulation twice as long in relative to normal vitamin C.
Additionally, Ester-C® metabolites help the vitamin penetrate white blood cells more effectively. White blood cells, as is known, require high levels of vitamin C for their metabolism. In this way, Ester-C® strengthens the key role of white blood cells, which they have in the immune system.
Solgar’s Ester-C® food supplement is very useful for preventing colds.
