Another year has come, which means it's a chance to make a fresh start. After the unhealthy lifestyle during the holidays, our immune system is just starting to recuperate and get back to normal. How do we do it? One sure way to speed up its recovery is to take optimum levels of Vitamin C.
But did you know, that when taking Vitamin C, we have to be careful of several factors such as the type and quality of Vitamin C because not all vitamin C are the same!
The most common type of Vitamin C is ascorbic acid. This kind of vitamin C has been by far, the cheapest form of Vitamin C, but did you know that when taken at higher quantities, ascorbic acid is not exempted from harmful side effects. Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach Cramps, Headache, Hyperacidity, Hot flushes, and Heartburn are just some of the symptoms of taking too much ascorbic acid.
