Thought you knew all there is to know about Vitamin C? Read on: This is the most versatile and health-enhancing nutrient of all. Because it is water soluble, it is the body’s primary water-soluble antioxidant, and fights damage caused by free radicals in the body’s water (65 % of your body is water) mostly inside the cell’s interior. Vitamin C is especially important for city dwellers, since carbon monoxide destroys intracellular Vitamin C.

Vitamin C’s main activity:
Strengthens capillaries and cell walls: Prevents bruising.

The RDA controversy: The recommended daily allowance of vitamin C is 60 mg per day. Scientists worldwide agree that this is far too low, and 1000 mg a day is recommended for general health, while the treatment of diseases may require up to 6000 mg per day.

The benefit of non-acidic Vitamin C: Most of the time our bodies are too acidic because of all the chocolate, alcohol, biscuits and pizza we consume – with all its sugar, salt, artificial colorants, chemicals etc. Healthy foods will return your body to its naturally alkaline state.
