Vitamin C is good for you

Today I am going to discuss Vitamin C. Many people take it for granted but it is a very important nutrient. It protects you from infections such as the common cold and it helps builds up your immunity to ward of viruses .It also helps you to absorb iron. So if you are not able to eat fresh fruits you can take a Vitamin C supplement daily.

It is one of the few vitamins that cannot be produced by one's own body so taking supplements is important. I take at least 1,000 milligrams of Vitamin C.

@askme123 yes. Any excess is discarded via urine if I'm not mistaken.

That is true and it cannot be stored in the body either.

I take juice of amla regularly. Amla is a citrus fruit rich in vitamin C. The juice comes in concentrated form and has to be mixed with water.

We need load of it everyday. And fruits are not the only sources of vitamin C. One of them is chili.

My mother-in-law is very diligent in drinking lemon juice or lemon slices soaked in water for almost 12 hours, so that it becomes infused water and vitamin C is an antioxidant for the skin and her immune system until now her skin is tight and still beautiful at the age of 56
