Ascorbic acid is the chemical name for pure Vitamin C. Vitamin C is a water-soluble, antioxidant vitamin. It is important in forming collagen, a protein that gives structure to bones, cartilage, muscle, and blood vessels. Vitamin C also aids in the absorption of iron, and helps maintain capillaries, bones, and teeth. Vitamin C plays an essential role in your body's immune system. It is found in every cell of our body and performs various functions including:

• Aids in neutralizing pollutants.

• Is needed for antibody production.

• Has anti-oxidant properties

• Has natural antihistamine properties.

• Aids in fighting off foreign invaders such as pathogens and free radicals.

• Helps protect the fat-soluble vitamins A and E as well as fatty acids from oxidation.

• Is vital to the production of collagen, which is involved in the building and health of cartilage,
  joints, skin, and blood vessels.

Vitamin C is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, working to protect the body from harmful free radical molecules. It's found in some concentration in fruits and vegetables, however citrus fruits, strawberries, cantaloupe, tomatoes, broccoli, potatoes and leafy greens are the best sources.

As a water-soluble vitamin, vitamin C is not stored in the body and must be regularly replaced through diet or supplementation (the body cannot make it on its own). Deficiency is rare, but smoking, stress and certain illnesses can cause reduced levels. Supplementing with vitamin C may help strengthen the immune system.

One study conducted on Vitamin C at the Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn, New York, found significant reductions in blood levels of histamine after people took 1,000 milligrams of Vitamin C for three consecutive days. An Italian study found that people with hay fever, who had taken 2,000 milligrams of Vitamin C daily, were better able to maintain the volume of air they could exhale. Vitamin C may also help reduce some of the inflammation associated with chronic allergies, according to other studies.  Studies have found that Vitamin C may:

• Maintains healthy bones, teeth and gums.
• Enhances immune system function.
• Protects against cellular damage.
• Help prevent periodontal disease.
• Aids in connective tissue formation.
• Aid in healing wounds
• Combat inflammation and pain
• Aid iron absorption
• Break down histamine
• Offer potent antioxidant protection
• Powerful antioxidant protection.
