    Vitamin C is popular with consumers because of its antioxidant properties and free radical scavenging functions


    Why supplement vitamin C? Because vitamin C has a strong antioxidant effect, and as a substrate for the hydroxylation process and a cofactor for enzymes, it can promote the synthesis of cells and skin collagen, and it can also remove excessive free radicals.


    In addition, vitamin C can promote the synthesis of neurotransmitters and help maintain normal learning and memory ability; it can also promote the formation of antibodies, promote the absorption of important nutrients such as iron, calcium, and folic acid, and maintain normal immune and physiological functions of the human body


    Vitamin C is powerful, but not more is better


    The tolerable maximum intake (UL) of vitamin C recommended in China is 2000 mg per day
