HealthAid Esterified Vitamin C formulation also contains natural anti-inflammatory and immune-stimulating Flavonoids (Rutin, Quercetin, Citrus Bioflavonoids & Hesperidin), Acerola and Rosehip (a rich source of natural Vitamin C and bioflavonoids), making this a unique complex. These Flavonoids not only significantly improve the absorption and effectiveness of Vitamin C but also give many other health benefits including improved elasticity and flexibility of blood vessel walls, reduced permeability of capillaries (smallest blood vessels), reduced inflammation, and improved blood circulation.
Esterified is a nonacidic form of Vitamin C as it has a neutral pH. In clinical trials, individuals who are sensitive to acidic foods were given either calcium ascorbate (Esterified Vitamin C) or vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid. According to the results, those who took calcium ascorbate were free from symptoms associated with increased stomach acidity.
