About this product

Ester-С is a non-acidic form of vitamin C that lasts up to 24 hours longer than regular vitamin C in your cells. It's gentle on your stomach and may provide a long-lasting antioxidant effect on your cells & brain for improved protection.

Vitamin C, or L-ascorbic acid, is one of nine water-soluble vitamins in certain foods and dietary supplements. Due to its water-soluble nature, it dissolves faster, and your body can’t store it for long. This vitamin is essential for L-carnitine production - an amino acid that maintains your energy metabolism. The human body can’t produce this vitamin itself, so regular vitamin C intake is essential to stay healthy.
