Daily Toxic Exposures Cause Free Radicals
Our bodies are bombarded daily with toxins from pesticides, traffic exhaust pollution, cleaning chemicals, airconditioning in buildings, cigarette smoke (including 2nd hand smoke), alcohol, plus chemicals in the foods we eat, the water we drink and products we put on our skin and in our hair. We even encounter bacteria and viruses every day that our bodies have to deal with.
All these toxins need to be processed by the liver to prevent them getting around the body and doing damage to our cells. Still, even with the liver doing such an amazing job, some toxins still get out and circulate around the body – causing oxidative damage in their wake.
This is where Vitamin C does a brilliant job of neutralising these free radicals and preventing further oxidative stress, damage and premature aging.
Where To Get Your Vitamin C Fix
So how can we get more Vitamin C? Eating plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables is a great start, they’re full of vitamins and nutrients to nourish our bodies from the inside. To further boost internal Vitamin C you can take a supplement in tablet or powder form. Especially during times of illness be sure to up your intake of Vitamin C with supplements.
Externally, especially for the face, neck and chest, a moisturiser and serum with Vitamin C can be applied topically to target specific skin areas and help with lines, wrinkles and fade pigmentation. Vitamin C in skin care often gets packaged with other beautiful skin ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins A, B and E, essential oils and CoQ10 for additional skin rejuvenating and hydrating benefits.
