Why do we need Vitamin C supplements?
We need Vitamin C to keep our bodies from falling apart. And, due to its multifaceted role and difficulty to absorb, we need Vitamin C supplements to function at our best.
#1
We need Vitamin C to prevent scurvy
Its scientific name name is Ascorbic Acid, which means anti-scurvy acid.
Scurvy is chronic Vitamin C deficiency. Symptoms include loss of teeth and hair, bleeding gums, skin rashes, easy bruising, wounds that are slow to heal, and nosebleeds. Scurvy is fatal if left untreated, but you can prevent it by ingesting adequate Vitamin C.
The recommended daily allowance of 75 mg for women and 90 mg for men is the amount needed to merely prevent scurvy, not to meet the needs of our other systems that require Vitamin C.
#2
We need Vitamin C for our immune systems
For optimal immune function, we need a steady influx of Vitamin C.
Our white blood cells, the front lines of our immune system, require substantial amounts of Vitamin C to function and propagate.
We also need vitamin C to produce antibodies.
Our immune systems must function properly all the time, not just when you start feeling rotten.
#3
We need Vitamin C for collagen production
Vitamin C is a requirement to produce collagen, the most abundant structural protein in your body.
Collagen is responsible for strong joints, firm skin, healthy muscle tissue, and intestinal lining that keeps the good stuff in and the bad stuff out.
Without Vitamin C, your body can’t produce collagen.
Your skin will sag, you will lose muscle, your joints will hurt, and dangerous substances will seep through the gut into the bloodstream.
#4
We need Vitamin C to prevent oxidative stress
Every adverse circumstance produces oxidative stress, a condition that causes cascading damage to our cells and tissues while depleting antioxidants like Vitamin C.
Replenishing these antioxidants can help prevent the damage and sometimes repair it.
Biomarkers of oxidative stress indicate premature susceptibility to age-related problems.
Numerous factors that we encounter in daily life cause oxidative stress, including:
Pollution
Stress
Excess body fat
Poor diet
Medications
Alcohol
The recommended daily allowance does not take into account the increased needs of Vitamin C to mitigate oxidative stress damage.
#5
We need Vitamin C supplements because we can’t produce it
Aside from monkeys and guinea pigs, we humans are the only mammals on Earth that cannot produce our own Vitamin C.
An adult goat synthesizes even more than its normal 13,000 mg daily Vitamin C in response to stress.
Taking our cues from nature, we can modulate our Vitamin C intake to meet increased demands.
#6
We need Vitamin C supplements we can absorb
Vitamin C is difficult to absorb at large doses. We rely on certain proteins to transport the Vitamin C out of the intestine, then out of the bloodstream and into the cells. These proteins are in short supply.
Liposomes are microscopic spheres that can encapsulate Vitamin C and carry it from the digestive system to the bloodstream and the cells — without relying on the transporter proteins.
Since liposomes are made from the same material that comprises our cell membranes, they can assimilate into the cells and deliver the Vitamin C intact to where it is needed.
Liposomes enable you to better absorb larger doses of Vitamin C from oral supplements.
