Vitamin C helps to produce Collagen
Vitamin C is required to produce collagen, a protein that
plays a critical role in the structure of our bodies. Collagen is the framework
for our skin and our bones, and without it, we would quite literally fall
apart.
This is exactly what we see with severe vitamin C
deficiency, or scurvy. People who have this condition lose teeth, bleed easily,
and lose the strength of their bones.
