Vitamin C must be considered the preeminent nutrient supplement. It seems to have the capacity to protect us against coronary heart disease, arthritis and other inflammatory disorders, iron deficiency, allergies, adrenal insufficiency, infections, radiation, air pollution, and even aging”.....Michael Rosenbaum, M.D.

The extensive and beneficial effects of vitamin C are well known. Vitamin C is essential for the immune system function, tissue growth and repair and adrenal gland function. It protects against infection and the harmful effects of pollution enhances the immune system and helps the body resist cancer. Vitamin C is also an antioxidant; studies show that antioxidants help muscles recover and regenerate more quickly following exercise. Recent research has uncovered further benefits of vitamin C in the fight against cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure, cataracts, male infertility, stress, and possibly AIDS.

Vitamin C has a major, intricate role in your body’s complex immune system. Vitamin C controls the production of T-lymphocytes (T-cells), increases the antibody levels and increases the production of interferons.

T-cells are white blood cells that fight off infection. Colds, cigarette smoking, birth control pills, steroid therapy, and stress severely deplete vitamin C levels, rendering the individual more vulnerable to secondary infection. Increasing vitamin C intake helps correct the situation.

Studies show that increasing vitamin C intake produces an increase in antibody levels.

Interferons are proteins with anti-viral activity. Recent evidence confirms that increasing vitamin C intake results in increased interferon levels, making vitamin C a natural anti-viral treatment.

Vitamin C is an antioxidant. Vitamin C neutralizes harmful oxidants and free radicals and keeps the mineral portion of certain enzymes in their proper reduced state.

Vitamin C is essential in the metabolism of other nutrients needed by the body like folic acid, tyrosine and phenylalanine.

Vitamin C has anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamin C inhibits the production of certain hormones which are involved in tissue inflammation and the accompanying swelling, pain, tenderness and heat.

Vitamin C is essential in the formation of collagen, the connective protein which binds tissue together. This Collagen is vital for the repair of the endothelium or inner layer of the arterial walls. Lack of Vitamin C can cause weakening of the arterial walls that can lead to aneurysms and cardio vascular disease. Studies suggest that regular vitamin C intake may alleviate the pain and stiffness of arthritis.

The Superior Vitamin C

One of the primary advantages of Ester C is that it has been shown to stay in the body for up to 72 hours - which makes it a perfect companion to the powerful antioxidant grapeseed extract as well as Pycnogenol, that also remain in the body for about 72 hours. Ester C is known as the body ready vitamin C, because the body changes some of the vitamin C we ingest into metabolites that perform important physiological actions different from those of vitamin C, so it can be more readily transported and utilized.

Ester C has another huge advantage over ascorbic acid and other forms of vitamin C, and that is it is non-acidic or pH neutral, making it gentle on user’s stomachs. It does not cause upset stomachs like ascorbic acid can.

Ester-C ascorbate is 2-4 times as efficient as other forms of vitamin C. It is both water and fat soluble. Like water, it is totally non-acidic and produces no side effects. The presence of metabolites makes Ester-C more bioavailable, it enters the bloodstream and tissues faster, stays there longer, and is used more efficiently at the circulation and tissue levels. Tests show ascorbate levels in white blood cells are increased up to 4 times with Ester-C that with ordinary vitamin C!
