EsterC & flavonoids -
Ester-C® & flavonoids provides highly absorbable vitamin C and varied flavonoid compounds for synergistic antioxidant, immune and vascular integrity support.
Uses For Ester-C & flavonoids
Antioxidant Support: Animal studies show increased
plasma vitamin C concentration and delayed urinary
excretion with administration of Ester-C, suggesting that
it is readily absorbed and efficiently utilized. Calcium
l-threonate, a metabolite of calcium ascorbate, may
facilitate the transport and uptake of vitamin C, playing
a key role in optimizing cellular levels. A human study
involving 12 subjects indicated favorable bioavailability
as well as revealing a boost in white blood cell levels.
The bioflavonoids quercetin, rutin and pomegranate
extract are powerful free radical scavengers that
complement the roles of vitamin C. Quercetin helps
maintain healthy histamine release and moderates healthy
leukotriene and prostaglandin metabolism. Rutin and
pomegranate extract provide important support for blood
vessel integrity and healthy cell function.*
What Is The Source?
Ester-C® mineral ascorbates are manufactured from
ascorbic acid, mineral oxides and mineral carbonates.
The mineral oxides and carbonates are mined
domestically. The ascorbic acid is derived from corn
fermentation. Quercetin and rutin are derived from
Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora Japonica) flower
buds and the fava danta tree respectively. Pomegranate
(punica granatum l.) extract is standardized to
contain 5% ellagic acid. Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate)
is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
