Ester-C (Ascorbyl Palmitate) has a US Patent Number 6.197.813.
Ester-C is the most advanced form of Vitamin C available to date. It has been specially formulated for faster absorption and retention so you can obtain the maximum benefits of Vitamin C quickly. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps mop up free radicals; those unstable molecules in the body that researchers believe contribute to the aging process. Vitamin C also helps boost immune system strength, and is essential for building connective tissue such as that found in the skin and joints.
Ascorbyl Palmitate has potent free radical quenching effects and has been shown to boost the production of collagen type 3 and strengthen collagen strands. By “esterfying” Vitamin C with calcium and bioflavanoids (substances found in fruits and vegetables that act as powerful antioxidant), this formula is estimated to absorb 400% faster than regular Vitamin C.
Ester-C also has a neutral pH that is gentler on your system, and does not cause the upsets that can accompany other Vitamin C products.
