Do you know what are the benefits of vitamin C for your body, your health and your appearance? This and more will be recognized in the following article.

Vitamin C Benefits
There are a number of reasons that highlight the benefits of vitamin C, especially taking it in the form of supplements, including:

1- Combating influenza and colds
Vitamin C is effective in preventing colds and flu and also in treating it, and many people testify to it, as the vast majority of studies support this position.

It all depends on the dosage, which should be high enough for treatment or for prevention of influenza.

2- Treatment of viral diseases
Vitamin C cures most viral diseases when used correctly. For example, Dr. Friedrich Kellner documented 60 cases of polio, which he treated with injections containing vitamin C.

The recovery was complete, and none of the children had any muscle damage.

Giving vitamin C to children before and after receiving the vaccine protects them from potential damage to the vaccine itself, and children who receive an adequate daily dose of this vitamin, are less likely to be vaccinated against viral diseases.

3 - lower cholesterol
Vitamin C lowers cholesterol levels, and cholesterol is a necessary substance for the body.According to the molecular correction approach, the cholesterol level increases when the body needs it.

Apparently, vitamin C works in a way that eliminates the body's need for high cholesterol in the blood.

4. Promote eye health
Vitamin C is present in a high concentration in all parts of the eye, which indicates that the eyes need it. Taking vitamin C effectively and quickly lowers high intraocular pressure, preventing glaucoma.

It is likely that vitamin C intake also prevents cataract, and works together with vitamin E to prevent diabetes damage to the retina.

5 - protection from the pressures of life

The highest concentration of vitamin C in the body is in the adrenal glands, where it prevents the erosion of the strength of dealing with life stress.

6. Protection from environmental toxins
Vitamin C works on:

Neutralizes or reduces the damage caused by many environmental toxins, including benzene, pesticides, nicotine, nitrates, radiation and heavy metals.
Reduces the harmful effects of smoking and alcohol.
Today, we need more vitamin C than in the past, because of the large amount of toxins in our modern environment.

7. Protect the heart and circulatory system
When there are high levels of vitamin C in the blood, the initial process of atherosclerosis can be avoided, and the combination of vitamin C and amino acid lysine can reduce plaque in the arteries.

This process leads to relief for suffering from angina, usually within ten days to a month.

8- Collagen production
Vitamin C produces collagen, the body's connective protein, and is therefore essential for the health of connective tissues, such as skin, bones, tendons, gums and blood vessels.

Because of this feature, vitamin C is necessary for wound healing and should therefore be used as a treatment before and after surgery.

9. Combating cancer
There are many features of vitamin C that protect against cancer.

10. General positive impact
Vitamin C seems to be the most important drug among the existing drugs. Almost no disease can affect it positively, but the important thing is the right dose.

How do we get vitamin C?
Before getting into the benefits of vitamin C, first start with the question arises - is it better to take vitamin C supplements? Is it enough to rely on the amount of vitamin C obtained from eating fruits and vegetables?

The answer to this question is clear: it is almost impossible to get enough vitamin C from food.

Humans are a mammal that does not produce this vitamin because of a genetic mutation, while other mammals produce vitamin C in their bodies in the amount of 40-300 mg per kilogram of body weight, and does not produce even one milligram of it.

We conclude that a person weighing 70 kg needs at least 2800 mg of vitamin C per day, even a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, provides only 10% of this amount.

The recommended dose of vitamin C
Vitamin C is safe to use, but it remains a strong substance, and safe and effective use of vitamin C requires a lot of knowledge. Each person has a different reaction, and also the needs of each person change with changes in their situation.

Before taking vitamin C, it is important to consult a specialist in the subject of medicine with molecular correction as it is important to consult a doctor before taking any medication.

Among people who are prevented from taking high doses of vitamin C:

Those who have a high iron level.
Those who have congenital deficiency in the enzyme G6PD.
Most people are able to take effective doses of vitamin C.

Warnings and risks
Now we will address some of the objections to high doses of vitamin C:

According to studies from Harvard Medical School and others, vitamin C does not lead to kidney stones, and there is no basis for claims that it harms the liver or kidneys, causes cancer, destroys vitamin B12, etc.
The recommended daily dose of vitamin C, is 60 mg, which prevents the occurrence of scurvy, but this disease appears only at the end of the process of atrophy. But the adequate dose for young people is not the same for the elderly.
It is true that a high dose of vitamin C is absorbed less compared to a low dose, but only in percentage terms.

Any larger quantity - 100% of 500 or 50% of 5000? What is not absorbed and remains in the intestine protects the intestinal cells from toxins and cancer. What is absorbed is excreted in the urine and prevents urinary tract contamination.

In conclusion, the concept of vitamin C in the public should be changed.
