Vitamin C: Health Benefits

Vitamin C can also be called L-ascorbic, ascorbic, or L ascorbate. This water-soluble nutrient is found in many foods and can be added to others. It is also available as a supplement. Vitamin C is vital to the formation of blood vessels, cartilage, and muscle. It also helps the body heal. Vitamin C is good for all systems in the body.

Vitamin C has been used traditionally for:

Detoxifying your body
Iron absorption is improved, thereby preventing anemia
Rejuvenating skin
Improve blood circulation
Helping respiratory function
Cold and flu symptoms can be reduced
It is rich in antioxidants and boosts the immune system
Healing the body
Cognitive memory enhancement
Supporting cardiovascular health

Sources for Vitamin C

Citrus fruits, such as oranges and limes, strawberries, kiwi fruit, tomatoes, tomato juice, and grapes are major sources of Vitamin C. Also, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cantaloupe are good sources.

The recommended daily allowance (RDA), for adults, is 60 mg/d.

Modern Research

Vitamin C has been the subject of numerous clinical studies to determine its therapeutic benefits.

Some of the studies conducted include:

Vitamin C is well-accepted to increase immunity and possess natural antiviral properties. However, few realize the vast difference in food derived vitamin C and ascorbic acid which is a dead synthesized molecule used to clean pools. We strongly suggest you only take food-derived Vitamin C.^[1]
Research suggests that Vitamin C helps in decreasing the intensity of the common cold and helps improve respiratory functioning.^[2]
