Frequently Asked Questions

What is vitamin C good for?

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, plays a crucial role in various bodily functions. It's essential for the production of collagen, which is a key component for skin, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. Vitamin C also aids in wound healing, aids in the absorption of iron, and acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting our cells from damage.

How much vitamin C should I take per day?

The recommended daily amount of vitamin C for adults varies based on age, gender, and specific needs. For adult men, it's about 90 mg per day, while adult women require around 75 mg. However, individuals who smoke or are exposed to secondhand smoke should increase their daily intake by 35 mg.

How much vitamin C is too much?

While vitamin C is water-soluble and excess amounts are usually excreted through urine, consuming more than 2,000 mg per day can lead to side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.

What does vitamin C serum do?

Vitamin C serum is widely used in skincare for its antioxidant properties. It can help neutralize harmful free radicals, reducing the impact of daily exposure to UV rays and pollution. Regular use can lead to brighter skin, reduced signs of aging, and improved hydration.

How much vitamin C should I take per day when sick?

When sick, especially with colds or the flu, some people increase their vitamin C intake to boost the immune system. While the body's vitamin C requirements may be higher during illness, it's advisable not to exceed 500 mg per day to avoid stomach upset and other potential side effects.

When is the best time to take vitamin C?

Vitamin C can be taken at any time of the day. However, since it increases iron absorption, it might be beneficial to take it with iron-rich meals. If taking higher doses, it's often recommended to spread the intake throughout the day to maximize absorption.

Who should take Vitamin C supplements?

While many people can get their daily vitamin C requirement from a balanced diet, certain groups might benefit from supplements. This includes smokers, people with limited diets, individuals with certain chronic diseases, and those recovering from surgical procedures.
