Vitamina C 500 mg E/C - 100 Comprimidos

Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with multiple functions in the body. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and protects cells from oxidative damage. It also helps maintain the normal function of bones, cartilage, teeth, and gums, and promotes collagen production for the proper functioning of the skin and blood vessels.

In addition, Vitamin C increases iron absorption and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. These benefits have been endorsed by the EFSA and are recognized throughout the European Union.

How does Vitamin C act in the body?

Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals that can damage cells. This process is essential for maintaining cell health and preventing oxidative stress. Through its antioxidant action, Vitamin C protects cell membranes and DNA.

Furthermore, it is a cofactor in the synthesis of collagen, a key structural protein for the integrity of skin, tendons, ligaments, and bones. It also participates in carnitine biosynthesis and in the regulation of the immune system, facilitating the function of leukocytes and the body's defensive response.
