Ester-C®
is a unique form of buffered Vitamin C with metabolites. Metabolites
are compounds derived from nutrients that are normally created in
the body. Research has demonstrated that this combination of non-acidic
Vitamin C with metabolites is well absorbed and retained in blood
cells and tissues. We have further enhanced this superior product
with the synergistic blend of Bioflavonoids, Acerola, Rose Hips and
Rutin.
From
the FDA's website: "Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption
of antioxidant vitamins may reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer.
However, FDA has determined that this evidence is limited and not
conclusive."
