Health Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C helps the body produce collagen, used by the body as connective tissue. Collagen helps build bums, blood vessel walls, and bones which makes Vitamin C extra useful for those recovering from surgery or injuries.

Vitamin C is also an antioxidant and neutralizes free radicals that damage the human body. Antioxidants are believed to boost immune system performance and lower rates of macular degeneration, cataracts, and cancer.
