Amazon.com Product Description

Ester-C, The Better Vitamin C, is a unique form of vitamin C that's absorbed into your system and is well retained -- providing advanced, active immune system support.*
	What is Ester-C?	Ester-C 500mg Ester-C is gentle on the stomach and can be taken any time of year to promote heart, joint, antioxidant, skin, hair, and nail health* Ester-C is the #1 pharmacist recommended brand◊
	Ester-C calcium ascorbate is a unique and patented form of vitamin C. It is made using a proprietary, water-based manufacturing process which results in a pH neutral product that contains naturally occurring vitamin C metabolites. These metabolites activate the vitamin C molecules, making it easier for the body to transport them from cell to cell for numerous health benefits.*
	The Science Behind Ester-C Immune Support*
	One clinical study showed that Ester-C increased vitamin C levels in the body.1 White blood cell levels of vitamin C were elevated in subjects receiving Ester-C when measured after initial dose. The presence of key metabolites such as threonate may contribute to this increased level and retention of vitamin C by the cells.
	Non-Acidic and Gentle On the Stomach*
	In one published study, individuals sensitive to acidic foods were given one gram of vitamin C as ascorbic acid or as Ester-C. Subjects reported heartburn "significantly more frequent and severe after intake of ascorbic acid" and subjects rated Ester-C as tolerated "very good" -- significantly more than ascorbic acid.2 So for anyone who has difficulty tolerating vitamin C, it's comforting to know that Ester-C is non-acidic and gentle on the stomach.*
	How Can Ester-C Help Me?
	The main benefit of Ester-C is its quick absorption and retention in the immune system.*
	What's in the Box
	Ester-C 500mg.

I had tried freshly squeezed orange juice, Redoxon Vit. C etc. Nothing had worked. After taking one of this supplement, all the sneezing and sniffles was GONE! I was amazed! I would highly reccommend this product. The 1000mg is a bit too large though. The 500mg is just the right size.
