Vitamin C

Support for collagen formation, fatigue, and the immune system

Vitamin C plays a crucial role in multiple processes in the body. It contributes to normal collagen formation, which is important for the normal functioning of blood vessels and skin. Collagen is a structural protein that helps with the strength and elasticity of the skin and connective tissue in blood vessels, joints, and bones.

Additionally, Vitamin C helps reduce fatigue and tiredness. It supports energy production in the body and contributes to maintaining vitality, especially during periods of physical or mental exertion.

Vitamin C also supports the normal function of the immune system, making an important contribution to the body's defense mechanisms.

Sources of Vitamin C

Vitamin C is mainly found in fresh vegetables and fruits. Good sources include citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, and grapefruits, as well as berries, kiwis, peppers, tomatoes, and green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale.

Since Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and the body does not store it long-term, daily intake through food is necessary.

Forms and Absorption

Vitamin C is found in the form of ascorbic acid, the biologically active form that is directly absorbed by the body. Absorption occurs in the small intestine and may vary depending on the amount consumed. At lower intakes, absorption efficiency is high, but at higher intakes, absorption decreases, and the excess is excreted through urine.

Vitamin C also plays a role in the absorption of other nutrients, such as iron from plant sources, by promoting the conversion of non-heme iron into a more absorbable form.

For optimal absorption, it is important to consume enough fresh vegetables and fruit daily.

synonyms for Vitamin C: Vitamin C, ascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate, calcium ascorbate, magnesium ascorbate, ascorbyl palmitate and liposomal vitamin C.
