Health benefits of vitamin C from antiagingboomer.com

The health benefits of vitamin C go well beyond a stronger immune system

Monday, April 11, 2011 by: Melissa Makris

(NaturalNews) Vitamin C is perhaps best known for its ability to strengthen the immune system. But this potent nutrient also has many other important roles that control significant aspects of our health.

When we get enough in our diets, vitamin C helps detoxify our bodies, promotes healing of all of our cells, and allows us to better deal with stress. It also supports the good bacteria in our gut, destroys detrimental bacteria and viruses, neutralizes harmful free radicals, removes heavy metals, protects us from pollution, and much more.

Unfortunately, most Americans are not getting anywhere near enough of this vitamin to experience these health benefits. That's especially true for our children.

I take a comprehensive Vitamin C supplement daily – Each tablet contains 600mg and I take 2 daily and increase to 4 in the winter months. 

This helps to keep me healthy (along with eating good quality food).

As we are unable to tell how much Vitamin C we are getting from the food that we eat, I do recommend taking Vitamin C supplements plus good quality multi’s.
