WHY DOES THE BODY NEED VITAMIN C?
ANTIOXIDANT Role: Vitamin C is known broadly as an antioxidant, which means it has the ability to mop up free radicals before they cause damage to tissues in the body via inflammation. It is also able to support another well-known antioxidant - vitamin E. This helps our cells to stay protected from the process of oxidative stress, which is a natural part of our metabolism, detoxification, or energy production, but when in excess, can be very damaging.
IMMUNITY : Vitamin C also plays an important role in immunity by supporting numerous cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. This helps keep chronic disease at bay and it helps us respond quickly to acute illnesses and infections. Extra vitamin C may be particularly useful if you exercise a lot. This is because after intense physical exercise the immune system works to raise inflammation to aid the repair and building of muscles.
COLLAGEN FORMATION : Vitamin C is required for the formation of collagen in the body. This contributes to the maintenance of healthy blood vessels, bones, cartilage, skin, gums and teeth of which collagen is a vital structural component.
AIDS IRON ADSORPTION : A recent HFMA (Health Food Manufacturers' Association) Health of the Nation Survey showed that 49% of individuals didn’t know that a lack of iron can lead to anaemia despite the rise in vegetarians and vegans around the country. Therefore, it is important to note that the uptake of iron can be increased by the presence of vitamin C in the diet.
ENERGY PRODUCTION : Vitamin C is involved in energy metabolism and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue. It is a vital nutrient for our adrenal glands, which regulate a balanced stress response in the body. In chronic stress, the balance of our adrenal hormones can be affected, leading to fatigue. Additionally, through its role in reducing oxidative stress caused by excess stress and toxic exposure, vitamin C helps to decrease overall burden and energy demands on the body.
NERVOUS AND COGNITIVE : Vitamin C supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and hence psychological function. It has been suggested that vitamin C deficiency may be involved in neurological and mental health conditions
SO WHY SUPPLEMENT? ARE WE NOT GETTING ENOUGH?
With the growing demands of the modern world we are much more prone to having a lower vitamin C status and there are many reasons for this:
Latent, active or frequent infections
Toxins: environmental pollutants, cosmetics, domestic products, smoking
Medications: aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
Stress: remember we all perceive this in different ways but it will still have an effect
Poor diet: refined sugars, alcohol, caffeine, trans fats, processed foods
Chronic disease: lowering body’s defenses, more susceptible
Nutrient decline in foods due to soil depletion, intensive farming and long food storage.
Given the above, one thing is clear; we need to put back what is missing to make up for the deficit.
