8 oz.
Ester-C® is patented, non-acidic vitamin C and its metabolites. It does not cause the stomach and digestive problems of ordinary vitamin C. Ester-C is different from ordinary or buffered vitamin C because:• It is processed in purified water instead of solvents which makes it a purer form of vitamin C; • It contains calcium threonate, which makes this form of vitamin C four times more bioavailable than other forms of vitamin C. ADVANTAGES OF ESTER-C® Several hours after taking Ester-C, the vitamin C concentration in the blood is twice as high as it would be after taking buffered or regular vitamin-C; The loss of vitamin C via urine after taking Ester C is six times lower than after taking ordinary vitamin C; Ester-C is the only form of vitamin C that does not cause digestive problems, not even when using large amounts; Ester-C is the only form of vitamin C that does not affect tooth enamel. Ordinary vitamin C, especially the popular "chewable form" is very bad for teeth and should be strongly discouraged. In summary, in comparison with ordinary vitamin C, Ester-C is much better taken up by the body, stays in the body longer, and is used more efficiently by cells and connective tissues. Furthermore it does not cause the digestive problems of traditional vitamin C and it does not affect tooth enamel.
