Vitamin C is a powerful vitamin with infection-fighting properties that plays an important role in immune system function. Vitamin C is crucial for the formation of collagen, making this vitamin very important for:
- wound repair
- healthy gums
- strong bones and teeth
- prevention of bruising
As a powerful antioxidant, it protects the aqueous areas of the body (including the blood, intracellular fluid and interstitial fluid) from free radicals. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which means the body cannot store it. This makes regular supplementation vital. Â
