Important vitamin to counteract diseases

Vitamin C has a variety of functions in the body and is very helpful in many processes. The vitamin participates in the formation of collagen in the connective tissue, but it also increases the iron absorption in the body when you take vitamin C, which in turn contributes to you feeling more alert. The lack of vitamin C can make you not feel well as the vitamin helps the nervous system to function properly. During and after intense physical exercise, vitamin C is important for the immune system to function normally. Vitamin C also protects fat-soluble vitamins and other fats in the body from oxidizing, that is, rancidity. If the oxidative process continues, diseases eventually form in the body.

Vitamin C is needed to form collagen

In the human body, the bones of the skeleton are held together by joints that can move towards each other, which makes the whole body mobile. What makes the joints withstand wear better and that they have a surface that makes them slide towards each other, is precisely the cartilage. Cartilage consists for the most part of man’s most important protein, collagen. Collagen forms fiber structures that provide stability in the skin – the body’s largest organ. Over the years, the amount of collagen decreases but also the production of collagen decreases, which makes the skin looser. If extra collagen is added, the aging effect is slowed down. In order for the body to be able to form collagen in bones, cartilage, skin and blood vessels, Vitamin-C is especially needed.
