Vitamin C Definition
What Is Vitamin C?
A vitamin found especially in fruits and vegetables that is needed by the body to prevent scurvy; also believed to boost auto-immune system. Vitamin C also known as ascorbic acid, a water-soluble vitamin essential for the formation of collagen (a major component of skin, muscles, and bone) and the healthy functioning of tissues containing collagen. It is required for the repair of joint tissues which are often damaged during high levels of physical activity. Vitamin C acts as a stimulant for body defence mechanisms, and protects vitamin A, vitamin E, and dietary fats from oxidation (see antioxidants). Vitamin C also plays an important role in the absorption of iron from plant foods. Vegetables (especially green peppers) and citrus fruits are good sources.
