A non-acidic vitamin C formula
Ester-C is a vitamin C formula that contains naturally occurring vitamin C metabolites. American Health says its water-based manufacturing process neutralises pH, so the formula is non-acidic and described as gentle on the stomach. This version also adds citrus bioflavonoids.
