Just a minute: Vitamin C 🥝🍊🥦
• What? Vitamin C
• Why? Immune, Connective Tissue, and Anti-oxidant
• Which? Ascorbyl-6-Palmitate, Ascorbic Acid, Calcium Ascorbate
• How Much? ≥ 75mg/day
• Where? Kiwi, Citrus Fruits, and Green Veggies
FYI- cooking your fruits and veggies reduces the available vitamin C, so enjoy freshly cut, raw fruits and veggies for the best natural vitamin C.
Vitamin C helps increase the absorption of iron and zinc, so if you are deficient, combine these for better results.
Benefits for decreasing duration of colds, attacks of gout and acute asthma attacks have been seen with daily preventive doses of 1000-2000 mg.
