Analysis

This supplement delivers a potent 1000mg of Vitamin C in the form of Ester-C, which is a patented, non-acidic form known for being gentler on the stomach and often suggesting enhanced retention. It also includes 108mg of calcium from Ester-C Calcium Ascorbate, contributing to its buffered nature.

A key enhancement is the inclusion of 200mg of Citrus Bioflavonoids Complex, which naturally occur with Vitamin C in fruits and are thought to enhance its effects and absorption. This larger bottle offers an even better value for a well-rounded and comfortable high-dose Vitamin C option from a reputable brand.

Pros

Uses buffered Ester-C for gentler digestion and potential enhanced retention
High 1000mg dose of Vitamin C
Significant 200mg of citrus bioflavonoids complex for synergistic effects
Reputable brand known for quality supplements
Larger quantity offers better value per serving

Cons

Still a higher upfront cost than basic ascorbic acid options
Individuals sensitive to calcium intake should note its presence

Warnings

Individuals monitoring their calcium intake should account for the 108mg of calcium per serving.
While generally gentle, some highly sensitive individuals might still experience mild digestive effects.
