FUNCTIONS
Vitamin C has numerous biological functions. Foremost, it is
essential for the synthesis of collagen and glycosaminoglycans
which are the building materials of all connective tissues,
such as skin, blood vessels, tendons, joint cartilage, and
bone. Vitamin C is the required coenzyme for two groups of
enzymes that catalyze the crosslinking of collagen fibers. As
such, Vitamin C is essential for normal wound healing and
capillary health. It also participates in the biosynthesis of
carnitine, serotonin, and certain neurotransmitters, including
norepinephrine.
Vitamin C is among the most powerful antioxidants in
humans and animals. It is a water-soluble, chain-breaking
antioxidant that reacts directly with superoxide, hydroxyl
radicals, and singlet oxygen. Laboratory studies show that
Vitamin C completely protects lipids in plasma and LDL
against atherogenic peroxidative damage. In addition,
Vitamin C interacts with glutathione and alpha-lipoic acid and
regenerates vitamin E. The antioxidant functions of Vitamin
C appear to have clinical significance in providing protection
from free radical damage to the eyes, lungs, blood and the
immune system.
Vitamin C is absorbed in the small intestine by a sodium
dependent transport process that is intake dependent. At
higher intakes, absorption becomes less efficient. Absorption
efficiency and Vitamin C utilization may be greatly enhanced
during conditions of physiological stress, such as trauma or
infection.
