Since humans cannot manufacture their own vitamin C, it must be continuously supplied in the diet by foods and supplements. However, consumer surveys indicate that substantial segments of the world's population do not take in even the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for this essential nutrient. Even worse, most nutritionists and health care professionals feel the current RDA is too low to fulfill the needs of all the ascorbate–dependent body processes. Ester-C® has sun screen action that absorbs ultraviolet light. UV–absorbing properties protect the skin from free–radical damage and help slow the lens of the eye from developing cataracts. A pilot study of 54 men, supplemented with a one-gram dose of Ester–C® ascorbate showed that the vitamin C metabolite threonate increased the white blood cell (WBC) content of vitamin C at 24 hours. WHY ESTER-C® ? Ester-C® contains mineral ascorbates. BENEFITS OF ESTER-C® Helps boost the body's immune system and provides nutritional support for the body's natural defenses. Growth factor for cells and tissues. Promotes growth, and repair of the connective tissue components collagen and glycosaminoglycans. Promotes optimal skin health and helps maintain the integrity of skin and connective tissue. Maintains the circulatory system. Prevents degeneration of the walls of small blood vessels in the skin and eyes. It is the principal water–soluble antioxidant molecule in the body. Maintains the body's "reducing state" necessary for life. Larger quantities used to help adrenals synthesize stress hormones; the brain to maintain electrical function; and the reproductive system to maintain healthy genetic material. Free–radical scavenger. Reacts with oxidative radicals to slow aging and prevent cellular damage. All in all, Vitamin C is an important nutrient to take on a regular basis. Ester-C® can work even more effectively while taking less mg.'s, possibly ½ the amount. Remember to take your Vitamin C at least 2 times each day, morning and evening. |
