Vitamin C is an essential nutrient involved in tissue repair and enzymatic production of some neurotransmitters. Necessary for several enzymes in the body to work and important for immune system function

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin. Therefore, water-soluble vitamin C is not stored in the body. Excessive amounts of vitamins that your body does not need are excreted from the body through urine. Our body keeps a small reserve of water-soluble vitamins. However, they should be taken regularly to prevent possible distress in the body. Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables such as oranges, strawberries, kiwi, peppers, broccoli, kale, and spinach.

Vitamin C Properties 

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient for some animals, including humans. The term vitamin C covers several vitamins that have vitamin C activity. Ascorbate salts such as sodium ascorbate and calcium ascorbate under the term vitamin C are used in some supplements. These secrete ascorbate upon digestion. Ascorbate and ascorbic acid are found naturally in the body because the forms convert to each other according to the pH. Oxidized forms of the molecule, such as dehydroascorbic acid, are converted into ascorbic acid using reducing agents.

Vitamin C contributes to the formation of collagen, which is necessary for the normal function of the skin in animals and humans. This vitamin therefore functions as a cofactor in many enzymatic reactions that mediate various basic biological functions, including wound healing.
