Ester-C is a high-purity ascorbic acid buffered with carbonates of calcium, known as “The Better Vitamin C”. It offers superior support of the immune system and protection from the negative effects of stress. It’s a non-acidic Vitamin C that is gentle on the stomach and can be taken in larger doses to decrease duration and severity of the common cold symptoms.
Vitamin C — The Wonder Nutrient You can’t Live Without
Vitamin C, likely the most famous of all the vitamins, is an essential nutrient that humans, unlike other animals, cannot produce or store within the body. It is the behind-the-scenes hero of your health and immunity, which has to be obtained through diet or supplementation on a daily basis.
People often reach for Vitamin C to support their immune system when they feel a cold coming on. And rightfully so. Vitamin C is a vital nutrient for immune health, however its benefits go far beyond that, it’s also crucial for hormones, adrenal function, iron absorption and helping the body manufacture collagen which is a vital constituent of blood vessels, bones, skin and ligaments.
A severe vitamin C deficiency is known as scurvy and results in the breakdown of body tissues, lethargy and bleeding gums. It was first recorded back in the 18th century amongst Royal Navy sailors who spent months on end out at sea. Scurvy baffled doctors who tried an array of remedies, until Dr. James Lidt discovered that giving the sailors two oranges and a lemon per day cured their symptoms. This shows the importance of eating fresh fruit and vegetables and using a high-quality bioavailable supplement when needed.

- Regular supplementation with Vitamin C is highly beneficial and can help support a wide range of health benefits including:
- Supporting your immune system against viruses, bacteria & other invaders: Vitamin C supports the production of white blood cells known as lymphocytes and phagocytes, which help protect the body against infection.
- Reducing effects of physical and psychological stress: Vitamin C is an anti-stress vitamin, it’s required for the production and regeneration of adrenal gland hormones and neurotransmitters such as cortisol and adrenaline. In times of stress, your adrenals use more Vitamin C, which is why it’s beneficial to take it during times of stress.
- Lowering inflammation and reduce risk of chronic disease: Vitamin C is a strong antioxidant that can boost your blood antioxidant levels by up to 30%[1]. Antioxidants boost the immune system by protecting cells from oxidative stress, which has been found to be at the root of chronic disease.
- Improving absorption of iron from your diet: Vitamin C and iron are a dynamic duo. Iron is essential for making red blood cells and transporting oxygen throughout the body. Vitamin C helps with the absorption of non-heme, plant-based iron from the diet. Consuming 100 mg of vitamin C may improve iron absorption by up to 67%[2].
- Improving skin health and elasticity: Normal skin contains high concentrations of vitamin C, which supports collagen synthesis and assists in antioxidant protection against sun damage[3]. Supplementing with Vitamin C has been found to decrease wrinkle depth and increase skin elasticity by up to 33%.
Why You Should Add A Vitamin C Supplement To Your Diet:
Over the course of evolution, humans have lost the ability to produce their own Vitamin C. Unlike other animals, we lack an enzyme in the liver that allows us to produce it from a form of sugar, which means that Vitamin C must be consumed regularly in order to avoid deficiency.
Although Vitamin C is found naturally in many fruits and vegetables, due to poor modern-day farming practices and depleted soil, fruit and veg now contain only a third of nutrients and minerals they once used to, even if purchasing organic. The fact that oranges contain a lot of vitamin C is a common misconception and marketing tactic still used by juice brands to push a product which is no better for your health than fizzy soda.
The Stronger Your Immune System, the Happier You Feel
Maintaining a healthy immune system can be challenging, it is responsible for keeping you well and always working to protect your body from foreign invaders, which actually enter your body all the time without you even knowing. The stronger and more supported your immune system is, the easier it will be for you to remain healthy and happy.
There are certain times and seasons the immune system faces more challenge and thus requires more vitamin C:
- Getting older
- Smoking (just one cigarette uses up the daily requirement of Vitamin C)
- Being sedentary
- Exercising too much or too hard
- Times of stress
- Lack of sleep
- Staying up too late
- Eating too much junk food
- Not eating enough micro-nutrient rich foods
- Too much alcohol and partying
While viruses and bacteria are a threat all year round, their activity tends to peak during the winter time. During the colder months, in the circumstances listed above, or when you feel like you may be getting ill, giving your immune system extra support with a quality immune-boosting supplement such as The Ultimate Vitamin C is a great idea to keep your health in tip top shape.

Things To Consider When Buying Vitamin C
Vitamin C is one of the most commonly used and beneficial supplements, however it’s important to realise not all Vitamin C is equal.
- Vitamin C is often found in its pure ascorbic acid form and due to the acidic nature of ascorbic acid some individuals experience stomach upset when taking medium to high doses of the vitamin. Not to mention the damage that ascorbic acid can inflict on your tooth enamel.
- Some vitamin C is derived from GMO corn that’s processed with chemicals like acetone (AKA nail polish remover)
We have sought out a clean, pH-neutral and buffered version of Vitamin C, so tha you can maximise on the benefits of this wonder nutrient without stomach irritation or damage to your teeth. It also means you can tolerate much higher doses if / when needed.

Where is HO Supps stocked?
Right now we’re sold exclusively on our website. Know somewhere that we should be stocked? Drop us a message: supplements@healthoptimisation.com
Can I get all the vitamins and minerals I need from food?
It’s important to start with a nutrient-dense diet, then supplement specific nutrients according to your needs and goals.
Unfortunately, our food doesn’t have the same nutrients that our grandparents’ food did. We live in a toxic world full of chemicals and pesticides, modern farming practices deplete the soil, and many people experience sluggish digestion and poor absorption issues, which all cause nutrient deficiencies.
Supplements don’t make up for a junk diet, high stress, or lack of sleep. The clue is in their name: they’re a supplement to your diet, and they can provide you with critical nutrients so that you can optimise your health and perform at your best.
Do you manufacture your own products?
Absolutely. One of our aims is to have the highest quality, cleanest supplements available so that you don’t need to check the label (but probably still will). The only way for us to do this, was to create our own from scratch.
We don’t believe in buying pre-made supplements and simply sticking our branding on. This is how the majority of supplements are made – they’re poor quality, won’t move the needle on your health, and you deserve more.
Can I recycle your packaging?
Absolutely! All of our packaging is 100% recyclable.
What’s the best way to store your products?
Where all your friends can see them. Our products are best stored somewhere dry, away from direct sunlight – cupboards are ideal.
Do I take my supplements with meals or between meals?
It varies between each product, and you can find detailed usage information on each product page.
Are your products safe for professional athletes?
They’re not only safe, they’re brilliant for athletes. We don’t use anything on WADA or other banned lists.
Is everything in the capsule listed on the label?
Yes – we include absolutely everything. When there’s nothing to hide, you put it all on show.
Do your products contain common allergens like gluten?
We’re proud to say that all our products are free from gluten, lactose, artificial flavours, titanium dioxide, and magnesium stearate.
What is the source of your vegetable capsules?
Our capsules are made from Hydroxypropyl cellulose and therefore vegan
Which sweeteners do you use?
We only use stevia and xylitol (birch sugar), which are natural sweeteners. We will never use any sneaky sugar alcohols (like sorbitol and mannitol) or sucralose which wreak havoc on many people’s guts.
