Mostly found in citrus fruits like orange, lemon, and kiwi, vitamin C promotes the development of body tissues, maintains the strength of cartilage, bones, and teeth, and helps in wound healing. The wonders of ascorbic acid don’t end here – did you know that it also contains nutrients that can bring back the youthfulness of your skin?
A group of researchers published a study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition about the dietary nutrient intakes and skin-aging appearance among middle-aged American women and formed a conclusion that a higher vitamin C intake means a lower likelihood of wrinkle formation and skin dryness. This is because it contains antioxidant properties that protect the skin from the harmful effects caused by toxic chemicals and free radicals.
Here are the other ways the skin benefits from the consumption of vitamin C:
Prevents Skin from Aging
Reduces the Visibility of Sun Damage
Lightens Dark Spots
Hydration
Protects the Skin from Diseases
Wound healing is one of the most beneficial effects of vitamin C. Skin inflammation is said to be painful and itchy – a condition that can be alleviated with an intake of the vitamin. Since it helps in the formation of the skin barrier, it is effective in maintaining overall skin health.
