Everyone knows vitamin C for its good properties for the immune system, but vitamin C has many other good properties and is indispensable for our body.

Grønne Vitaminer's C500 contains 500 mg of acid-neutral vitamin C in depot form, so that the vitamins are released in the body over approx. 8 hours for best possible recording. The tablets are small and easy to swallow, and 1 can is enough for 8 months of consumption.

What is vitamin C good for?
Vitamin C is of enormous importance for the formation of the connective tissue protein collagen, whose function is to bind the cells together. In case of deficiency, the cells and connective tissue fall apart, which i.a. is the case with scurvy.

In addition, vitamin C contributes, among other things to:

• reduce fatigue and exhaustion
• protect the cells against oxidative stress
• maintain a normal energy metabolism
• maintain the nervous system
• maintain normal psychological function
• form collagen, which is important for normally functioning blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth
• maintain the immune system - also during and after intensive physical training

When do we need vitamin C?
We cannot form vitamin C ourselves, and both sunbathing, cold, stress, smoking, birth control pills and pollution increase our need for vitamin C. Vitamin C competes with sugars, in the form of carbohydrates, for the "landing sites" on the body's cells. People who eat a lot of sugar impair vitamin C's ability to bind to the cells, as the space is already occupied by the sugars.

So if you want to keep your body in "top shape", it is a really good idea to take a supplement of vitamin C - and especially if you eat a lot of sugar, smoke or use birth control pills.
