Vitamin C is obtained in all
fresh fruits, vegetables and their juices. There are few unconventional high
sources of vitamin C in nature such as rosehips, Indian gooseberry, etc. When
it comes to the best vitamin C supplement, there is no one-size-fits-all. The
nutrient can be derived from a variety of sources.
Vitamin C is a “scavenger
antioxidant,” which means it destroys free radicals circulating in the body. This
helps to protect cells against oxidative damage. Vitamin C helps make collagen,
which in turn helps the body produce strong connective tissues and heal wounds.
In case of a minor vitamin C deficiency, a person faces the following: - bleeding
gums, feelings of lethargy, cracked nails, brittle hair, skin that is easily
bruised, or experience muscle or joint pain. The sources of natural vitamin C
include amla, citrus fruits, strawberries, potatoes,
tomatoes, etc.
The permitted dose of vitamin C depends on
a person’s age and other factors. The daily recommended allowance of Vitamin C
for adults is about 40 mg. Researchers have found that a person absorbs about
70- 90% Vitamin C when one consumes 30–180 mg a day. At higher doses of above
one gram a day, absorption falls to less than 50%. The rest gets excreted in
your urine.
Amla
& Vitamin C
Indian gooseberry (amla) is a rich source
of natural vitamin C, with a concentration of 600 mg- 1800 mg of ascorbic acid
in every 100 g. Amla contains substances that partially protect the vitamin
from being destroyed during heating or drying process. Amla juice, is highly
acidic in nature and prevents loss of vitamin C. According to a research,
naturally occurring vitamin C in amla is better absorbed by the body than the
synthetic form of the vitamin due to the presence of bioflavonoids, which aid
absorption.
Vitamin C supplements containing amla are
considered to be one of the best.
