It provides 24-hour immune support, is non-acidic, and contains naturally-occurring metabolites for quick absorption.* Ester-C is the most patented Vitamin C brand in the world and, since its benefits are supported by science, you know you are giving your body the advanced immune support it shouldn't be without.
