Reasons to PRIORITIZE VITAMIN C

Reasons to PRIORITIZE VITAMIN C   ~   BY JAANU

Hey! You say, I don’t need vitamin C that much! I’m not a sailor inclined to scurvy!!

Well, where you are correct in that sailors did prioritize citrus to fight scurvy in the past, you can’t seriously discount vitamin C as one of the special essentials. Why should you brew the lemonade this summer?

Our bodies cannot produce vitamin C, meaning that 100% of the vitamin C in our bodies must be consumed. Vitamin C supplements in the past have been shown to reduce blood pressure. They’ve been shown to reduce risk of heart disease as well. Those aren’t the only stressors vitamin C is capable of eliminating! Foods that are high in vitamin C combat oxidative stress.

Of course, another powerful benefit of vitamin C is its ability to boost and strengthen the immune. Next time you have a cold, don’t skip the citrus! If you don’t want to forget these facts, eat more vitamin C! It strengthens memory!! 🙂
