Vitamin C 101: All The Juicy Deets

Vitamin C 101: All The Juicy Deets

Been hearing a whole lot about Vitamin C but not exactly sure what it’s all about?

 

Vitamin C is an extremely important antioxidant, that our body needs to have a sufficient amount of on the regular and not just during flu season. It not only strengthens your immune system and protects you from diseases, but also boosts your skin health and protects it against UV-induced photo damage - reducing the appearance of fine lines and pigmentation!

 

Read on to find out more about how Vitamin C affects not only your body, but also your mind and skin, and some simple ways you can use to get those Vitamins in!

 

Body

Your body doesn’t produce Vitamin C on its own, so it’s super important to be constantly consuming foods or supplements that are rich in Vitamin C, to help your body fight viruses, bacteria and infected cells more efficiently, which thus supports your immune system and helps decrease your risk of falling sick. Our go-to way is definitely through good quality Vitamin C supplements - it’s the easiest and most effective way of ensuring you’ve got your daily dose of Vitamin C checked!

 

Made with a whole bunch of superfruits like cherries, pomegranate and beetroot, we can’t help but give a special shoutout to our Detox Cherry Bomb that is packed with powerful antioxidants and vitamins. All you need is a cup a day to hit more than half of your daily recommended Vitamin C needs!

 

Mind

It’s literally all in the mind with this one, with most of our Vitamin C intake going towards preventing free-radical damage and speeding up our cognitive functions! Having sufficient Vitamin C helps your brain efficiently convert dopamine to serotonin, sparking happiness and preventing mood swings, while also supports your digestion, eating and sleep quality.

 

Beauty

It’s not only important to get sufficient Vitamin C orally, but also through your skin as well. Vitamin C gives your skin a much-needed protection against damage caused by UV exposure, and helps prevent premature aging and collagen damage.

 

However, only a small amount of vitamins makes its way to your skin if it’s consumed orally - which is why Vitamin C infused skincare creams and serums are important to enhancing the effects of it on your skin!

The Main Takeaway


We literally can’t live without Vitamin C and can’t stress enough how important it is for our body, mind and skin! Having insufficient Vitamin C may not only cause you to fall sick easily, but also have muscle/joint aches, experience fatigue and constant mood swings.
