Ascorbic acid Description
Vitamin C, vital to humans, is not synthesized by the body itself. That is why it is important that it comes in sufficient quantities from external sources. It can be obtained from foods or supplements. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is involved in almost all processes of life. Its deficiency leads to a weakening of the immune system, so a person is more susceptible to colds.
