Why vitamin C is needed right now/ Doses needed and where to find it

Vitamin C shortens the duration of the disease, strengthens the immune system and serves as an antioxidant against free radicals.

Its presence is important for the benefit of the immune system, against heart diseases, problems with pregnancy, eye diseases and premature wrinkles.

It supports the body's normal growth, development and iron absorption.

The human body cannot produce or store vitamin C.

This makes getting this vitamin from food a great necessity.

How much you need
Men: 90 milligrams a day

Women 75 milligrams per day, (except pregnant women and nursing mothers)

Pregnant women: 85 milligrams per day

Breastfeeding mothers: 120 milligrams per day

Smokers: 35 milligrams more than the dose recommended above.

The maximum amount that a person can get from this vitamin is 2000 milligrams per day.

What is important for AgroWeb.org readers to know is that a healthy diet provides adequate amounts of vitamin C.

Foods Richest in Vitamin C
For many people, an orange, a serving of strawberries, red peppers or broccoli provides a sufficient dose of vitamin C.

Peppers are a very good source of vitamin C. You should include them in your diet.

1 glass of orange juice provides 93 mg of vitamin C.

1 glass of citrus juice provides 70 mg of vitamin C.

1 kiwi provides 64 mg of vitamin C.

A half serving of broccoli provides 51 mg of vitamin C.

Half a serving of strawberries provides 49 mg of vitamin C.

Below you will find from AgroWeb.org the signs that the body gives when vitamin C is missing

Vitamin C and Stress
Stress is inevitable during the day.

It is triggered by a variety of factors, events and thoughts.

Vitamin C deficiency multiplies these stress-inducing factors, not only in frequency but also in magnitude.

People who are deficient in vitamin C develop depression-like behavior, feel more tired and lack energy.

Dental problems
Vitamin C keeps their teeth and gums healthy.

Lack of this vitamin causes erosion and loss of teeth.

Weak immune system
Lack of vitamin C creates a handicap in the immune system.

Not only does the body get sick more often, but healing and recovery is more difficult.

A weak immune system has a harder time fighting off infections and bacteria.

Anemia affects
hundreds of Albanians.

Sluggishness is one of its symptoms that comes as a result of low hemoglobin levels.

Vitamin C deficiency causes anemia and problems with cell production.

Weight gain
Vitamin C deficiency increases fat mass in the body.

This happens because the body stops using fats as a source of energy./Agro.Web
