I posted VCF's Ester C article on another health site, http://www.vitamincfoundation.org/esterc.htm because I thought the doctor on that site is an Ester C Proponent, and here is his reply to it :

I will stand by my statements on this subject. Time will tell! Studies on a few patients (less than 100,000 individuals) cannot possibly stand with the experiences of many millions of personal and clinical experiences.

"You pays your money and you takes your choice."

If I had cancer, I would consider taking Ester-C orally, as it does seem to enter cells faster, and there is a patent about this from one of Pauling's associates (Raxit J. Jariwalla). On the other hand, calcium has been shown to help malignant cells (and embryos) divide! So who knows.

Our concern otherwise, is that it is not a "natural" form of vitamin C, so its effect is largely unknown. It may very well be more beneficial than the vitamin C found in nature. Who really knows? As Ralph points out, we do know that there are issues with calcium ascorbate, etc.
