Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to the normal synthesis of collagen for the normal function of bones, cartilage, gum, teeth and skin, to the normal function of the nervous system, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to the increase of iron absorption, and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Ester-C® is a buffered (gentle on the stomach) form of vitamin C, enriched with natural metabolites (L-threonic, L-lyxonic and L-xylonic acid). According to the manufacturer, this form is absorbed and remains in circulation differently compared to regular ascorbic acid vitamin C, although such comparative claims are not officially approved health claims at EU level under Regulation (EC) 1924/2006.
The complex of citric bioflavonoids, acerola, wild rosehip fruits and rutin are plant components that do not currently have an approved health claim by EFSA, so they are presented here as components of the composition.
It suits adults who want to cover their vitamin C needs with a gentle form for the stomach, as part of a balanced diet. It is not intended for the prevention or treatment of infections and does not replace medical advice.
