Vitamin C

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system as well as normal energy yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. This useful vitamin also supports the normal formation of collagen for the maintenance of health for bones, cartilage, gums, teeth and skin. Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid and can be found in many types of fruits (particularly citrus-based ones) and vegetables. It’s an essential vitamin that helps keep your body functioning as it should. Vitamin C can’t be stored or made in the body, so a daily diet of fruit and vegetables is needed. If you’re worried that you’re not getting enough vitamin C in your daily diet, you could benefit from a vitamin C supplement.
