Solgar Ester-C Plus - Vitamin C Capsules
Plenty of people want the support of a daily vitamin C supplement but find that standard ascorbic acid feels rough on the stomach. Solgar Ester-C Plus takes a different route. It uses a non-acidic, pH-neutral form of vitamin C built around a calcium ascorbate complex, so you get your daily C in a form that tends to sit more comfortably. It comes in two strengths, 500mg and 1000mg, with several capsule counts to match how you like to buy.
What makes Ester-C Plus different
Ordinary vitamin C is ascorbic acid, which is naturally acidic. Solgar uses a special manufacturing process to form a calcium ascorbate metabolite complex instead. The result is non-acidic and gentle on the digestive system, and the formula is designed to help your body hold on to vitamin C rather than flushing it out quickly.* If acidic C has bothered you before, this is the kind of formula worth trying.
How it supports your health
Vitamin C is one of the essential nutrients we all need, and many of us simply don't get enough from food alone. It works as an antioxidant that helps your body manage free radicals, and it supports immune health day to day.* Vitamin C also plays a part in the body's natural production of collagen, which is one reason it's tied to healthy skin.* Solgar rounds out the formula with citrus bioflavonoids, acerola, rose hips, and rutin, plant compounds that traditionally accompany vitamin C in whole foods.
Who it's a good fit for
Ester-C Plus suits anyone looking to keep up a steady vitamin C routine, especially people who've had trouble with the acidity of regular C tablets. The 500mg capsules are a sensible everyday dose, while the 1000mg size suits those who prefer a higher single serving. One honest note: because this is a calcium ascorbate form, it does contribute a small amount of calcium, so keep that in mind if you already track calcium from other sources.
How to take it
Take it with a meal for easy daily use. See the suggested use and supplement facts below for the exact serving for your chosen strength, and talk with your own practitioner if you have questions about fitting it into your routine.

FAQs About Solgar Ester-C Plus - Vitamin C Capsules
Q: What makes Ester-C different from regular vitamin C? A: Regular vitamin C is ascorbic acid, which is naturally acidic. Solgar Ester-C Plus uses a calcium ascorbate metabolite complex instead, so it's non-acidic and tends to be gentler on the stomach while still giving you your daily vitamin C.*
Q: Should I choose the 500mg or 1000mg? A: The 500mg capsules work well as an everyday dose, and the 1000mg size suits those who prefer a higher single serving. Both come in more than one capsule count, so you can pick the size that fits how often you'll take it.
Q: Is this product vegan? A: The 500mg formula is labeled VEGAN, KOSHER, and HALAL and uses a vegetable cellulose capsule. The 1000mg formula uses a gelatin capsule, so it is not vegan. Check the strength you're buying if that matters to you.
Q: When is the best time to take it? A: Solgar suggests taking one vegetable capsule two times daily, preferably with meals. Taking it with food is an easy way to build it into your day.
Q: Does it contain anything besides vitamin C? A: Yes. Both strengths include citrus bioflavonoids and acerola, and the formulas also feature rose hips and rutin, plant compounds that naturally accompany vitamin C in whole foods.*
