    Scientific name of Vitamin C is ascorbic acid. It is water soluble and exits the body if present in excess quantity. Vitamin C is quite essential to maintain our physical and mental health.

    Here are some of the best known benefits provided by Vitamin C to human body.

    It Neutralises Free Radicals

    Our body keeps fighting free radicals as these are not good for us. These can damage the immune system, mutate the cells, increase the process of ageing and cause diseases like cancer, Parkinson's, Alzheimer and others. Poor digestive system, toxins, diseases and pollutants are the major reason behind the occurrence of free radicals.

    Vitamin C is considered by experts as one of the strongest biological antioxidants and body can fight against free radicals with help of antioxidants. Other antioxidant such as Vitamin E which is already there in human body is also regenerated by Vitamin C. So, apart from removing harmful free radicals, it also helps other antioxidants to fight against them.


    Provides Strength To Our Immune System

    Three essential elements present in our immune system are IgA, IgM, and C3 (Ig means immunoglobulin). Immunoglobulin plays an important role inside our body by protecting it from viruses and harmful bacteria. Vitamin C increases the concentration of these elements in the blood stream, also increases the effectiveness of the immunoglobulin.


    Plays A Significant Role In Killing Viruses

    Vitamin C is one of the safest and highly effective treatments available currently to cure a variety of viral infections. Apart from providing excellent treatment, it also prevents viral infections. There are two types of Vitamin C treatment used by doctors, one is consuming medicines orally and the other is Intravenous vitamin C.

    Expert physicians recommend that patients should consume the needed Vitamin C doses, whenever they started feeling ill or think that a disease is at its initial stage. A large number of doses can be consumed throughout the day because a human body can't store for long. You don't have worry about over consumption because excess amount is automatically flushed out from our body. The length and severity of viral diseases are cut down by Proper Vitamin C intake.


    Some Other Benefits of Vitamins C are:

    Produces interferon (a natural antiviral compound)

    Destroys viruses, harmful bacteria, toxic substances and tumour cells.

    Breaks down histamines and prostaglandins which cause inflammation

    Prevents and cure arthritis

    Maintains blood pressure

    Protects against negative reactions of vaccine

    Generates vaccine-stimulated antibodies

    Recycles cholesterol which is needed for transport of nutrients.


    There's no doubt that Vitamin C has a lot to offer, but we can't consume large amount orally. However, with Intravenous Vitamin C technique, we can get the required amount easily in our body.
