Immune classic vitamin C
Vitamin C is primarily known for its effect on the immune system. But vitamin C can do more than that and is involved in many other processes in the body. For example, the water-soluble vitamin supports the normal function of blood vessels through its role in collagen formation. It is also important for our antioxidant protection system: it helps to protect the cells from oxidative stress and recycle used vitamin E.
Biogena Ester-C® Gold:Vitamin C with a 24-hour effect
Ester-C® Gold is a special vitamin C complex with stomach-friendly vitamin C and the vitamin C metabolite L-threonate. Thanks to L-threonate, vitamin C is better absorbed by the body and remains in the immune cells for longer. This non-acidic, stomach-friendly vitamin C complex is also suitable for sensitive people.
Physiological functions of the vital substance it contains:
- Vitamin C helps to protect cells from oxidative stress and contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E
- Supports the body's immune system
- Contributes to the formation of collagen and thus supports the skin, gums and blood vessels
- Increases the absorption of iron
- Contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue

FAQ
At Biogena, “pure substance principle” means that we do not use technological additives which are used for the fully automated manufacturing of tablets, capsules and pills (e.g. anticaking or release agents and so forth) or additives that are used for optical reasons or for enhancing the taste of the products (artificial aroma, colouring agents, coatings etc.). Due to a semi-automatic manufacturing process, we can avoid these substances that often have a higher proportion in customary products than the actual active ingredients. In the case of nutritional supplements, additives have to be indicated in the list of ingredients. Here, the patient or customer can get useful information. Concerning the single ingredients, we also care for our raw materials to be free of carrier substances. In cases where this is not possible, we use natural food components such as maltodextrin, cellulose powder or calcium carbonate. The majority of our ingredients is produced exclusively for us – free of carrier substances (e.g. our enzymes our probiotics: other manufacturers often use lactose as a carrier – the product batches produced for us are explicitly without carriers).
BIOGENA preparations are carefully manufactured in our own production facility, BIOGENA Good Health World (Salzburg, Austria), to a unique manufacturing standard. We are certified according to ISO 22,000:2018 and GMP - Good Manufacturing Practice and have organic, halal and kosher certification.
