Vitamin C benefits

It is impossible overestimate Vitamin C benefits.

It works as an antioxidant (unlike antioxidants vitamin E, beta-carotene, and CoEnzyme Q10, which reduce oxidation damage, vitamin C works preemptively, intercepting the oxidants that initiate the free-radical cycle) is needed for the manufacture of neurotransmitters and cell structures, helps preserve the elasticity of the skin and capillaries, protects the lungs by preventing oxygen from converting into peroxides, boosts the immune system, helps wounds heal faster, helps the intestine absorb iron, lowers blood cholesterol, protects the body against the effects of pollutants (particularly the metals lead, mercury, and aluminum) and chemical toxins (such as formaldehyde, organic solvents, and pesticides), protects against bacteria and viruses, protects against heart and blood diseases, protects against heart attacks, reduces anxiety, and aids in restful sleep.

Additionally, vitamin C, a natural antihistamine, increases alertness and mental functioning, may help safeguard against and reduce the symptoms of colds and flu, helps build collagen (the connective tissue in the body), and diminishes the duration and severity of herpes blister outbreaks. It also helps regenerate vitamin E after the latter has done its own job of eliminating free radicals.

With vitamin E, it can counteract the effects of a fatty meal, especially damage done to blood vessels from high cholesterol. According to some studies, students with high vitamin C levels did better on IQ tests than those with lower levels.

Food Sources of Vitamin C: Bean sprouts, berries, cauliflower, citrus fruits, liver, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, green leafy vegetables.
