Description
Supplement First is an Authorized Retailer for Pure Encapsulations.
- Pure Encapsulations Ester-C® & flavonoids offers a blend of Ester-C® and flavonoid compounds to provide vitamin C support for healthy immune and cellular function as well as blood vessel integrity.
- Ester-C®, consisting primarily of calcium ascorbate, is a natural, non-acidic water-soluble form of vitamin C that is distinguished by its unique biological activity.
- In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial, Ester-C supplementation resulted in significantly higher white blood cell vitamin C concentrations compared to standard ascorbic acid at 8 hours and remained elevated at 24 hours.
- The bioflavonoids quercetin and rutin are free radical scavengers that complement the roles of vitamin C.
- Quercetin helps maintain healthy mast cell function and moderate healthy leukotriene and prostaglandin metabolism.
- Preclinical data show that rutin supports blood vessel integrity and healthy cell function.
