Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient for higher primates and a few other organisms. In the body, vitamin C is an antioxidant because it can protect the body from the threat of oxidants. Vitamin C is also a coenzyme.
Vitamin C exists in various fresh vegetables and fruits. It is easily soluble in water and can be quickly oxidized into dehydroascorbic acid in the air, which has a citric acid-like sour taste. It is a strong reducing agent and gradually turns into light yellow to varying degrees after long-term storage.
Benefits of Vitamin C:
--Promote the biosynthesis of collagen, which is conducive to faster healing of tissue wounds.
