The Power of Vitamin C

Vitamin C, aka ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient necessary for well being. It is known to help the body efficiently use carbohydrates, fats, and protein.* Evidence has also suggested that Vitamin C may poses the ability to heal wounds and repair your bones, teeth, skin, and cartilage.* Its top attributes:

• powerful antioxidant protects cells from free radical damage*
• may improve immune system response and function*
• Known to help detoxify heavy metals widely present in our modern environment.*

Before the 18th century, people who traveled great distances for months, like sailors, often died from scurvy, a disease related to dietary deficiency of vitamin C from lack of fresh food. Vitamin C insufficiency issues nowadays usually come as a result of stress or aging. Older people or those under stress sometimes need extra vitamin C to enable normal immune function*

We routinely reach for fortified fruit juice or vitamin-enhanced cereal in the supermarket aisles. Remarkably, vitamin C was identified less than 100 years ago. Ascorbic acid was discovered in 1912 and isolated in 1928. The real breakthrough came in 1933 when scientist Albert Szent-Gyorgyi of Hungary successfully produced vitamin C in the lab; he received the Nobel Prize in 1937 for this achievement.

Vitamin C is available as a supplement and occurs naturally in citrus fruits, tomatoes, strawberries, and vegetables like potatoes, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. It cannot be produced in our body, and being water-soluble and quickly excreted, vitamin C must be replenished daily.
