What good can Vitamin C do to us? How much do we need to take? Can I get too much? Should I take a supplement? You can find the answers to these questions here.
Vitamin C is also called ascorbic acid. It's one of the most flexible vitamins. It prevents you from bruising quickly and helps your wounds to heal. It toughens capillaries, the blood vessels and the connective tissues that lie beneath your skin, and steadies your bones. It is also a powerful antioxidant, meaning it clears your body from harmful oxygen molecules and free radicals that can do cell damages, which leads to heart disease, cancer, arthritis, cataracts and other health complications. Vitamin C also makes your immune system strong.
Vitamin Nutrition Supplement
How much you should take
Vitamin C is essential for both men and women.
For the women, Vitamin C:
• Increases fertility
• Improves the hormone levels
• Helps the Iron to be absorbed
• Makes the immune system healthy
The dosage for women is 1000mg. It can come from foods or supplements. Take note, too much vitamin C can make an acidic environment in the vagina and can dry up the cervical fluid.
For the men, Vitamin C:
• Keeps the sperms from clumping
• Improves movement
The dosage for men is 1000mg per day. Sources of Vitamin C are oranges, red bell peppers and strawberries.
Should you take supplements?
It's ok to not take vitamin supplements if you are eating a lot of vegetables and fruits (about 9 servings per day). Studies show that additional vitamin C can shorten your sufferings and lessen cold symptoms. Is too much OK?
People can possibly have up to 2000mg of vitamin C per day without side effects. If you wish to have more than that, it's better to consult your doctor first.
