What is Vitamin C?

Vitamin C supports tissue repair and strengthens our immune system.Vitamin C is essential for many enzymatic processes in the body that keep us healthy. As a powerful antioxidant,vitamin C neutralizes free radicals,which can cause oxidative stress and prematurely age our skin.Vitamin C is also important for collagen production in skin cells,helping to support skin structure and slow the signs of aging.Our extended-release vitamin C tablets are designed to release vitamin C in a single phase over 12 to 24 hours,which may help prolong the body's utilization of vitamin C.

Why do we need vitamin C?

Vitamin C plays a key role in maintaining human skin health.It does this by preventing the auto-inactivation of lysyl and prolyl hydroxylases, the two main enzymes involved in collagen biosynthesis.Collagen also plays a vital role in wound healing.Vitamin C is a cofactor in the biosynthesis of L-carnitine,an important molecule required for fatty acid metabolism.It is also required for the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters such as catecholamines.The enzymatic synthesis of carnitine and catecholamines involves a hydroxylation step and requires vitamin C for optimal enzymatic activity.Vitamin C also has powerful antioxidant properties. Vitamin C acts as a scavenger of free radicals and harmful oxygen derivative species,thereby preventing cellular damage caused by oxidative stress.Many human diseases,such as atherosclerosis and cancer,are caused by oxidative damage to tissues;various trials are exploring the role of vitamin C in the treatment of these diseases.

The antioxidant properties of vitamin C also help protect against UV-induced photodamage.Vitamin C protects the body from infection by keeping the immune system healthy.Vitamin C is also required for the absorption of non-heme iron.A lack of vitamin C can lead to a disease called scurvy.Scurvy is characterized by fragile skin, bleeding gums,fatigue,and connective tissue weakness.Since vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, any excess is usually excreted in the urine. It is not stored in the body in large amounts.Taking too much vitamin C is unlikely to cause harmful effects; however, taking large doses of the vitamin supplement (2,000 or 3,000 mg per day) can cause diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps, vomiting, heartburn, headaches, and insomnia. Stomach problems are caused by the osmotic action of unabsorbed vitamin C in the gastrointestinal tract.

The upper limit of vitamin C for adults is 2,000 mg.People with chronic liver disease,gout,or kidney disease are recommended to take no more than 1,000 mg of vitamin C per day.High vitamin C intake may increase urinary oxalate and uric acid excretion.

Vitamin C enhances the absorption of non-heme iron; therefore,it should be used with caution in patients with hereditary hemochromatosis, a disorder characterized by abnormal accumulation of iron in the body.High doses of vitamin C can exacerbate iron overload and cause tissue damage in such individuals.Conversely,vitamin C intake is especially important for people with low iron levels who take iron supplements.Studies have shown that high vitamin C intake is associated with lower vitamin B12 and copper levels,enamel erosion,and allergic reactions;however,these facts require further confirmation.
