Nature’s Super nutrient
One of the most well known supplements must be Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a powerful micronutrient and crucial part of the diet. From reversing skin ageing to reducing cholesterol levels, studies have found that vitamin C benefits many aspects of health, from the inside out.
Getting enough may help ward off illness and infection, enhance iron absorption, and even reduce the risk of painful conditions like gout. Vitamin C has also been shown to be effective in supporting the mind against depression.
Vitamin C acts as a natural antioxidant in the body, preventing the buildup of free radicals to protect your body against disease.
One of the most well-known benefits of vitamin C is its ability to improve immune health. In fact, loading up on vitamin C foods is often used as a first line of defence during cold and flu season.
Studies have repeatedly confirmed the immune-boosting benefits of vitamin C. A review published in the Annals of Nutrition & Metabolism showed that getting enough vitamin C may help reduce symptoms and shorten the duration of respiratory tract infections, such as
the common cold.
Vitamin C may also help decrease the incidence of other conditions like pneumonia and diarrhoea as well.
Because it’s involved in the synthesis of collagen, vitamin C is believed to help reverse skin ageing and can also protect against skin damage and free radical formation caused by ultraviolet exposure
