Vitamin C contributes to normal immune system function, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and normal collagen formation. Vitamin C helps protect cells from oxidative stress and increases iron absorption. Vitamin C is necessary for the metabolism of amino acids, in particular for the formation of the non-coded amino acids hydroxylysine and hydroxyproline. Participates in collagen synthesis. Therefore, a lack of vitamin C is manifested by a decrease in the strength of the vascular wall, especially capillaries, increased bleeding, and also, as a rule, a decrease in the strength of the fibrous apparatus of the tooth and associated loosening and loss of teeth. In addition, vitamin C is important for tissue respiration. It supports iron absorption, stimulates white blood cell production, bone, tooth and cartilage development, and promotes growth. It is also involved in the antioxidant defense of the cell, since it is able to reduce the tocopheryl radical.
