Healthy Nature

One day, you decide to consult a beautician.

They hand you a bottle of vitamin C, and say,”Take these every day. Make oranges a large part of your diet. Thanks for coming. Have a nice day.”

How would you react?

Would your jaw be hanging open as you stare in disbelief at this person?

That story’s a bit off-the-wall. But, you get the point: adding vitamin C to your diet to improve how you look isn’t the least bit crazy.

Why?

Find out when you read these vitamin C factoids:

• Reduce Lines and Wrinkles
  The powerful antioxidants in vitamin C combat the development of lines and wrinkles because they stimulate collagen production. This actually fills in those lines and wrinkles.
  It can do such an excellent job that it rivals the ability of any cosmetic surgeon.
• You Get Protection from Sun Damage
  Vitamin C’s antioxidant properties strengthen your skin and help it to repel damage of any kind, including potential harm from the sun. Now don’t be foolish and think you can take vitamin C instead of sunscreen, bake outside all day, and come inside just fine.
  It’s not like that. But it functions as an additional layer of protection from the sun in addition to sunscreen and limiting your time in UVA and UVB rays.
• Vitamin C Heals Minor Blemishes
  Remember your favorite hero as a child? Instead of popping a can of spinach, Popeye slams some vitamin C. Instead of pizza, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles drink vitamin C serum. Or Barbie comes along with her own purse loaded with vitamin C.
  Vitamin C speeds up your body’s natural healing processes. So small cuts, acne scars, and other minor blemishes can be hidden with its regular use.
• Makes You Look Younger
  You already learned how vitamin C increases collagen production to fill in lines and wrinkles. Well, it also gives your skin the same tone throughout your entire body and brightens your complexion too.
  Cool.
• Moistens Your Skin
  Dry, crackly skin may not bother men. Does anything? They’re quite simple folk.
  If you’re a woman, dry and flaky skin drives you nuts. Topical vitamin C moistens and hydrates your skin so that doesn’t happen.

Yeah, Vitamin C Does All That

After reading this, vitamin C probably sounds like an amazing miracle breakthrough. But there’s nothing miraculous about it.

Vitamin C truly does all this. Just make sure you use or apply it in the right form to get the benefits you want.

And enjoy the results!
