Ester-C - anything but ordinary
Wish-You-More Ester-C contains the patented form of vitamin C, Ester C®. Ester C® is an especially bioavailable form of vitamin C. Due to its neutral pH value, it is particularly well tolerated and easy on the stomach. Its metabolites improve its bioavailability. It also remains in the body longer than normal vitamin C.
Wish-You-More Ester-C contains 500 mg vitamin C per capsule.
What makes Ester-C® so special?
Ester-C is extremely well absorbed and utilized: it contains calcium ascorbate, as well as small amounts of naturally occurring vitamin C metabolites. These include dehydroascorbate, calcium threonate and 4-hydroxy-5-mehtyl-3(2)-furanone. These metabolites are intermediate substances involved in the metabolism, just as they are produced in the body when vitamin C is processed. These important metabolites can positively influence the transport and utilization of vitamin C so that vitamin C is immediately and effectively available to the body.
In the comparison with normal vitamin C (ascorbic acid), it was shown that Ester-C® is still detectable in leukocytes 24h after ingestion. This is not the case with ascorbic acid. Thus, the immune system can be supported with a single intake for the whole day.
Ester-C is particularly easy on the stomach: unlike conventional vitamin C, Ester-C® has a neutral pH value and is therefore also very well tolerated by people with a sensitive stomach.
What can vitamin C do anyway?
Vitamin C helps to maintain the normal function of the immune system. In addition, it contributes to the protection of DNA, proteins and fats from free radicals.
