Summer is not really skin-friendly and so it’s time you do your bit to protect it. The magical nutrient vitamin C is sure to seal your skin against exposure to harsh ultraviolet rays.
Here is why you need vitamin C this summer:
Offers antioxidants – Since vitamin C offers rich antioxidants, it takes complete care of the free radical cell damage often caused due to smoking, environmental pollutants and excess sun exposure. It renews antioxidants like vitamin E to protect the skin.
Protects from sunburns – This is crucial during the summers since we are prone to sunburns. Vitamin C brings with it healing abilities and prevents the dangerous consequences of sun exposure which have chances of leading to skin cancer.
Produces collagen – This nutrient is needed for collagen production as it holds our skin together as well as our joints, cartilage, teeth, blood vessels, bones, eyes and heart. It is also important because it activates the enzymes necessary for initiating the reactions that create collagen in the body.
Gives glowing skin – Vitamin C is simply magical for your skin. It ensures healthier, smoother and younger looking skin. So get your dose of vitamin C and eat up fruits and vegetables with high amounts of this nutrient.
