Vitamin C is an important micronutrient to our body because of its role in promoting wound healing, collagen formation, bone and teeth health. As a potent antioxidant, it provides protection against free radicals damage and protects our LDL cholesterol from oxidation. Our body needs more vitamin C during times of stress and sickness to produce norepinephrine, a stress hormone needed for the “fight or flight” response. Vitamin C also acts as a detoxifier by cleansing and removing all the toxins and waste materials from our body.
