Vitamin C is an essential micronutrient that plays a key role in the body's immune function and the release of free radicals. Unlike some animal species, the human body cannot synthesize vitamin C on its own and therefore must be supplied with it regularly for optimal health and longevity.
Vitamin C is one of the water-soluble vitamins and plays a fundamental role in health, primarily acting as an antioxidant. Therefore, vitamin C is necessary for the regulation of oxidative stress, energy production, and immune defense.1 Vitamin C is also necessary for the proper formation of neurotransmitters (especially dopamine and norepinephrine) and for liver health.2 Some recent studies even point to its benefits for healthy cortisol rhythms and cognitive function (learning and memory). 3,4
Benefits of Pure Nutrition Vitamin C-1000:
Vitamin C is a key antioxidant for humans with multiple roles in the proper functioning of the body and brain. Some of the benefits of taking Vitamin C-1000 are:
- Antioxidant that boosts immune defense;
- Reduces the risk of colds;
- Strengthens cognitive functions and protects the integrity of neurons;
- Helps increase collagen synthesis;
- Supports healthy cortisol balance.
Vitamin C is one of the essential micronutrients whose main function is as an electron donor – an antioxidant in the human body. This property determines most of its biochemical and physiological functions.
Research into how vitamin C affects humans, particularly the central nervous system and immune system, has never stopped.
The findings suggest that vitamin C is essential for neuronal differentiation and maturation, as it increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a peptide that contributes to cell longevity and replication.
According to research, vitamin C deficiency increases the risk of depression, increases neuronal degeneration, and suppresses cognitive function (by reducing catecholamine production) 6,7
What’s more, studies show that as little as 250 mg of vitamin C per day helps maintain healthy cortisol levels in active people. 4
Additionally, a study of college students found that those who took high doses of vitamin C suffered from colds and flu 83% less often than those who did not. 8 While vitamin C does not cure infections and cannot guarantee that you will never get sick, it has been shown to boost your immune system.
The human body also needs vitamin C to synthesize collagen, a key component of connective tissue.9 When the body is deficient in vitamin C, the risk of the collagen-dependent disease scurvy increases; this disease can manifest itself with symptoms such as lethargy, anemia, and skin problems. Regular intake of vitamin C through food and supplements helps protect against scurvy. 10
