Description
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in the form of a powder. This highly effective antioxidant protects the body from the stress of oxidation, increases iron absorption, and is vital in the formation of collagen, which is so important to the condition of the skin, as well as other tissues.*
Even in small amounts, Vitamin C can protect such molecules as proteins, lipids (fats), carbohydrates, and nucleic acids from damage by free radicals.*
Scurvy is a disease with a long history. Potentially fatal, scurvy (severe Vitamin C deficiency) was the scourge of the seas, often experienced by sailors with no fresh fruits or vegetables in their diets. Today, scurvy is rare in developed countries because it can be prevented by as little as 10 mg of Vitamin C daily.*
