The Importance of Vitamin-C

Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid is necessary for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body. It's involved in many body functions, including the formation of collagen, absorption of iron, the immune system, wound healing, and the maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth.

There are many types of foods which contain Vitamin-C :

1) Orange juice
2) Oranges
3) Grapefruit juice
4) Kiwifruit
5) Strawberries
6) Brocolli
7) Red peppers
8) Green peppers

The amount of vitamin C you take as a supplement will depend on how much you already get from your diet. The minimum recommended daily intake of vitamin C for healthy adults is between 65 mg and 90 mg per day. 

 There are many benefits of consuming Vitamin-C which is :

 1) Vitamin C for Heart Health: Research suggests that high intakes of foods rich in vitamin C may help support heart health. The cardiovascular benefits of vitamin C may be linked to its role as an antioxidant 


2) Benefits of Vitamin C for Skin: Higher intakes of vitamin C may be associated with anti-aging benefits, including reduced wrinkle formation and reduced dryness.

 3) Vitamin C Benefits for Weight Loss: People with adequate levels of vitamin C oxidize 30% more fat during moderate exercise than those with low vitamin C levels. And there is some correlation between vitamin C levels and body mass. Some researchers believe that low levels of vitamin C may cause us to be more resistant to losing fat.

 4) Vitamin C as an Antioxidant: Vitamin C provides important antioxidant support, helping protect cells from oxidative stress and the effects of free radicals, and it may also help regenerate other antioxidants within the body

 5) Vitamin C Benefits for Men: Vitamin C is a popular supplement for men due to many of the benefits mentioned above, including skin benefits, heart health, protein metabolism, and antioxidant support, but one study suggests vitamin C may positively impact sexual health as well.

 Personally, I have faced a lot of differences while consuming Vitamin-C where my skin recovered from a severe sunburn. My skin became fairer and I think that is the best feeling anyone could have. All of you should try too :)

In the beginning, I only know gratitude as a greeting where we need to thank people for their help or time but I got to know that gratitude has much power in it. Special thanks to my friend for introducing me to this, she made wonders and so am I. So this is how it works, get a book, any book which is comfortable for you to write.
