Growth and development and repair of body tissues, Iron absorption and collagen production name a few of Vitamin C benefits in our bodies.
Vitamin C is vital for us to survive.
Remember stories from history of people suffering from Scurvy to anaemia, debility, exhaustion, spontaneous bleeding,
and sometimes ulceration of the gums and loss of teeth!
Thank God its history and in the modern world we have plenty of vitamin C rich foods from fresh fruit and vegetables to fermented products!
However, this is not as easy as it sounds!
Recommended daily dose of vitamin C is actually quite high and to get enough vitamin C
you should eat 10 strawberries,1 apple,1 orange and use 1 lemon with your water daily!
Chances are high – you are not eating enough vitamin C.
But how to eat healthy you might want to ask?
Let’s stop guessing game-simply go to https://cronometer.com/ and sign up!
By using this programme for 3 days you will already see where to improve and can you get everything you need from food you eat.
(I am not advertising the app-I simply love options this app offers!)
I always believed – best way of getting any vitamin or mineral is from natural source, as close to natural as possible!
You can choose from some vitamin C foods like:
Kiwi and strawberries, broccoli, peppers and tomatoes, kale, Black current, cranberries, pomegranate
lemons and other citruses, pineapple, cabbage, cauliflower, parsley and spinach and list can go on and on.
Eat them fresh in salad, or on its own, fermented or in freshly squeezed juices-it’s up to you and after 30 days you will see how your skin will glow in health and happiness!
And you might lose some kg or pounds too – would be great side effect?
Enjoy your food and be healthy.
With love,
