Vitamin C Is One of the Most Important Vitamins
Not so very long ago, scurvy was one of the perils of long sea voyages. It was finally determined that a lack of fresh vegetables seemed to be part of the problem and soon sailing ships sailed with supplies of citrus fruit and even onions. No one knew exactly why these protected against scurvy, but now it’s known that these, and other fruits and vegetables, contain Vitamin C. Today scurvy is all but unknown, but Vitamin C still is required for a multitude of health issues. Supplements may help to take up the slack when adequate amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables are not readily available.

The Immune System Benefits from Vitamin C
Nobody enjoys getting a cold or coming down with flu, depending on the illness, it can affect someone for days or weeks. The immune system is there to help protect the body from invading pathogens like viruses and bacteria. Because cold and flu viruses are unaffected by antibiotics, it’s important to keep the immune system strong enough to prevent them from causing illness or to help return the body to normal as soon as possible. Vitamin C has shown promise in helping to keep the immune system on its toes to fight pathogens effectively.

Vitamin C Is Needed for Nice Skin
Keeping the skin looking good not only depends upon creams and cleansers, it also depends upon the availability of Vitamin C. Collagen is a supportive substance that helps keep the skin smoother and tighter and younger-looking. Collagen adds elasticity to the skin. Vitamin C is important in the formation of collagen, and not enough Vitamin C might lead to the skin becoming saggy and wrinkled. Vitamin C has antioxidant properties that may help to stop free radical damage caused by UV radiation from the sun. Because it’s been found that exposure to sunlight accounts for most of the visible aging effects on the skin, a supplement of Vitamin C may help to heal and reverse some of this damage. For those who want to keep their skin looking good, Vitamin C may be the answer.
