Vitamin C not only promotes the absorption of calcium, iron, and folic acid, but also accelerates the synthesis of collagen.

The most reported anticancer effects of vitamin C are blood tumors, digestive tract tumors and gynecological tumors, but the mechanism is not yet clear.

If you are taking iron supplements that need to be converted into the correct form for absorption, taking vitamin C supplements will increase absorption. A glass of orange juice or a similar drink with a meal is not enough. However, active iron is absorbed in the correct form and protected in its protein matrix to the lower gastrointestinal tract, where it is absorbed, so vitamin C supplementation is not required when you take active iron.

Vitamins are one of the seven nutrients necessary for the body and are a type of micronutrients. They are indispensable nutrients for maintaining life, ensuring health, promoting growth, enhancing body resistance, and regulating physiological functions. Vitamins are generally divided into two categories, one is fat-soluble vitamins, and the other is water-soluble vitamins.
