Description
Vitamin C, scientifically known as ascorbic acid, is a vital water-soluble vitamin that your body cannot synthesise or store. Daily replenishment of vitamin C through dietary sources or supplements is essential to facilitate the normal growth and repair of tissues throughout your body. With potent antioxidant capabilities, it serves as a shield for your cells against the detrimental impacts of free radicals. Individuals with poor dietary habits, heavy alcohol consumption, and smokers are at a higher risk of developing a deficiency in vitamin C. Common signs of this deficiency include rough or scaly skin, easy bruising, slow wound healing, bleeding gums, low immunity and tooth loss.
