Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential vitamin, necessary for healthy functioning of the body. Also known as ascorbic acid, Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin; our bodies don’t store it, so we have to get enough from our diets every day. Some of its critical uses include:

  • Maintaining healthy skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage
  • Supporting immune function, especially during and after intense exercise
  • Normal physiological and nervous function
  • Improved absorption of iron from plant sources
Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits and juices, dark green leafy veg, peppers and berries.  In fact, did you know that hot chilli peppers have more Vitamin C than oranges? Deficiency is rare but can lead to scurvy, which causes symptoms such as fatigue and swollen, bleeding gums. This essential micronutrient has many roles, including:
  • an antioxidant – it helps protects cells against damage from free-radicals (oxidation), which has been linked to chronic disease
  • maintaining a healthy nervous system by supporting enzymes that process messages between neurons in the brain
  • contributing to the production of collagen for tendons and ligaments, skin, cornea, bones, blood vessels and cartilage
  • helping the body to absorb non-haem iron from plant sources
