Better Health
Vitamin C is integral to our health, helping to support not just immunity but also energy levels and glowing skin. Vitamin C is crucial when it comes to keeping us feeling alert and well as it is one of the most potent antioxidants, meaning it can help to fight free radicals to ward off inflammation and disease.
Research suggests taking high doses of vitamin C after you start to show cold symptoms has no effect on the duration or severity of the cold itself. Therefore, it is important to regularly take a vitamin C supplement or ensure you are getting adequate amounts through your diet as a preventative.
Vitamin C can help to improve the absorption of iron as it assists in the conversion of iron that is poorly absorbed (plant-based iron) into a form that is easily absorbed by the body.
