daily.

Ester-C®
- Is produced from calcium ascorbate using a water processing
technique in which is formed calcium threonate, a readily
absorbable natural metabolite of vitamin C.
- Is more readily absorbed by the cells than any other form
of vitamin C.
- Calcium threonate increases uptake and retention of vitamin
C reducing excretion of vitamin C in the urine. It is retained
in the body for 24 hours 6 times longer than ascorbic
acid.
- Vitamin C is important for the production of cortisol
by the adrenal glands and is used up under stress. Vitamin
C deficiency is associated with adrenal fatigue. Adrenal
fatigue worsens the symptoms of menopause. Antioxidant vitamin.

walls.
