Vitamin C – why should we take it?

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water soluble vitamin, a powerful antioxidant which is not synthesized in the human body. People need to get it from food. Ascorbic acid is widespread in nature.

Foods highest in vitamin C are:

• Fresh fruit and vegetables
• Lemons
• Oranges
• Peppers
• Berries and more.

The rose hip is one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C. It helps the body to adapt and protect itself from the overall pollution of the environment and stimulates immunity.

Why it is so important?

Vitamin C is necessary for:

• Collagen synthesis – collagen is a major component of the connective tissue that plays a key role in wound healing.
• L-carnitine and some neurotransmitters
• Involved in the metabolism of proteins and carbohydrates
• Vitamin C is an important antioxidant and is needed to synthesize the other antioxidants in the body, including alpha-tocopherol and vitamin E.
• Studies have shown that vitamin C is limiting the harmful effects of free radicals through its antioxidant activity
• It lowers the cholesterol in the blood
• Prevents various viral and bacterial infections and generally strengthens the immune system

In addition to the biosynthetic and antioxidant functions, vitamin C plays an important role in immune function of the human body and improves the absorption of iron.

Ascorbic acid is important for the development of healthy cells in the body proper absorption of calcium, normal development and tissue repair. It also participates in the process of blood clotting and strengthens capillary walls.

In stressful situations ascorbic acid is depleted quickly.

Smokers and elderly people have a greater need for vitamin C. Each cigarette destroys from 25 to 100 mg of vitamin C.

The white blood cells of people who are taking vitamin C in the range of 2 to 3 g daily are distinguished by a significantly greater activity. Vitamin C is an essential antioxidant. It enhances the activity of other antioxidants like the well known vitamins A and E.
