Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential vitamin, meaning your body can’t produce it. Yet, it has many roles and has been linked to impressive health benefits. Low vitamin C levels have been linked to an increased risk of memory and thinking disorders like dementia, while a high intake of vitamin C from foods and supplements has been shown to have a protective effect.

Vitamin C is a strong antioxidant that can boost your blood antioxidant levels. Some further benefits found with taking vitamin C supplements include potentially lowering blood pressure, reducing risk of heart disease, improving iron absorption and lowering risk of iron deficiency and boosting immunity.
