History and Usage:

Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is popularly known as a powerful antioxidant and immune system stimulant; however, it has many other uses. It is water-soluble and is derived from carbohydrates. It is produced by converting sorbitol, a sugar alcohol, into Vitamin C.

Vitamin C is required by the human body. Without Vitamin C, the body will develop scurvy, the symptoms of which are bleeding gums, impaired ability to heal from wounds, dry eyes and mouth, and fatigue.

Vitamin C is vital to the generation of connective tissue, e.g., collagen, which helps to maintain the strength of many parts of the body (muscles, blood vessels, and internal organs). Without Vitamin C, collagen is not synthesized correctly, resulting in weak blood vessels.
