Vitamin C is known to promote healthy skin and healthy joints. Also known as Ascorbic Acid, Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin.
Unlike most animals, humans cannot produce Vitamin C. As this vitamin participates in more than 300 body functions, it needs regular replenishment. Its primary function is to maintain collagen, a protein necessary for the creation of skin, ligaments, bones and teeth and for strengthening the walls of blood vessels. In addition, Vitamin C plays an important role in the absorption of iron, which is required for the creation of red blood cells. It also participates in the utilization of Folic Acid, one of the B Vitamins. It has been observed that Vitamin C is destroyed by food preparation more than any other nutrient. Also, the body does not store Vitamin C but tends to excrete excessive amounts. Taking 1 capsule of Solgar® Vitamin C 500 mg Vegetable Capsules provides 500 mg of this essential vitamin, which helps fight free radicals. Free radicals can lead to oxidative stress and premature aging of cells.
