David - Ester-C is fine but a buffered C would work just as well and cost alot less. It too is gentle on the stomach.

I have had BIG success for years with BBIIGG doses/frequently of vitamin-c for that "I think I are gettin a cold" feeling. BUT, with the regular c, along with success at steaming the cold, etc, I would always get quite uncomfortable goins on in the stomach/intestines. Switching to Ester-C, for me, was dramatic!!!! Not a trace of stomach problems and if anything, better results fighting the bug. I use Puritan's Pride [no financial intrst.] ester-c 500mg caps/ their prod #2263. If I feel a bug or even think there may have been bugs flyin around on my school bus = head for the ester-c. 5 at a time, every couple hours or more. Why 5 at a time?? That's what seems to fall out of the bottle and be comfortable for my mouth/throat capacity...... Wouldnt hesitate to take 6 or more at a time, were my mouth as big as most people seem to think it is. Ester-c is a bit more $, but hugely worth it for me.
