If you want to take care of your immune system year-round, it is important to get enough vitamin C in your diet. When we consume too little of this substance, we can feel excessively tired and exhausted. A deficiency can also disrupt collagen production, which is necessary for maintaining healthy skin, hair, nails, bones, teeth, joints, and muscles.
Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is water-soluble. As an antioxidant, it protects our bodies from damage and oxidative stress caused by excess free radicals [1]. By participating in collagen synthesis, it ensures that blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth function properly. The vitamin also affects calcium absorption and is involved in hormone formation [2]. It is necessary for maintaining proper energy metabolism and increases the absorption of iron, especially non-heme iron from plant sources [3]. Additionally, it affects the function of the nervous system and supports the maintenance of normal psychological functions [4]. The human body cannot produce this vitamin itself, so we must obtain it through our diet. Rich dietary sources of vitamin C include rose hips, bell peppers, parsley, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, oranges, tangerines, and cruciferous vegetables. The need for vitamin C depends on physiological state, age, and gender. Pregnant and breastfeeding women, individuals with high blood pressure, diabetics, and smokers should have a higher intake of vitamin C [2].

A study published in Actas dermo-sifiliograficas showed that vitamin C has antioxidant properties and protects the body from damage and oxidative stress [1]. Another study conducted by Jarosz et al. showed that pregnant and breastfeeding women, individuals with high blood pressure, diabetics, and smokers should have a higher intake of vitamin C [2]. A randomized clinical study published in JAMA network open showed that vitamin C can increase iron absorption in patients with iron deficiency [3]. Finally, a study published in Sub-cellular biochemistry showed that vitamin C plays a role in the transport of the vitamin to the central nervous system [4].
