VITAMIN C

Vitamin C plays a crucial role in various aspects of our health. Sufficient vitamin C intake not only supports the absorption of iron from food and strengthens the immune system, but also helps maintain good resistance during and after physical exertion, such as training and sports performance.

Which foods contain vitamin C?

Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant, is found in high concentrations in fruits and vegetables. Kiwis, broccoli, peppers and of course oranges are essential sources of vitamin C, along with citrus fruits, berries, green (leafy) vegetables and tropical fruits. Today's diet does not contain the same amount of nutrients as it used to. In thisscientifically substantiated articleread more about it here.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin. This means that this substance cannot be stored in the body. That is why it is important that you get enough every day and we advise you to take vitamin C supplements daily.

Vitamin C deficiency

In the short term, fortunately, you will not notice any symptoms of a vitamin C deficiency. But in the long term, you can certainly experience symptoms such as reduced resistance, wounds that take longer to heal, fatigue and joint pain. With a long-term deficiency, scurvy can even develop.

An excess is rare, because you urinate out most of this substance. At too high a dose it can have a laxative effect.

It also plays an important role in the health of bones and joint cartilage by stimulating collagen formation.
