About this product

Ester-C calcium ascorbate supplies 1,000 mg vitamin C with 100 mg calcium. The buffered format suits people seeking high-dose vitamin C with less acidity than plain ascorbic acid.

Citrus bioflavonoids contribute 200 mg and meaningfully complement the vitamin C core. Acerola, rose hips, and rutin are only 25 mg each and lack potency or standardization details.

One tablet per serving and a low cost make the formula practical. The product should be chosen for buffered vitamin C, not for its small acerola contribution.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient quality81

Ester-C calcium ascorbate is a well-characterized buffered form, while acerola and rose hips lack potency details. Vitamin C is substantial, but acerola and rutin are too small for focused support.

Ingredient transparency81

Every listed active ingredient has an individual amount. Excipients and daily directions are absent from the supplied data, which leaves some label details uncertain.

Customer satisfaction62

The aggregate satisfaction average is exceptionally strong, though no detailed feedback is supplied. The small volume limits confidence in the aggregate satisfaction signal.

Value for money83

A strong buffered vitamin C dose supports good formula quality despite token botanical additions. The serving offers excellent cost efficiency for the core vitamin C amount.
