Vitamin C (also known as ascorbic acid) is an essential organic micro-nutrient that protects tissues from 
oxidative stress and plays an important role in the growth and repair of tissues in the body. It is water 
soluble found in watery components of food and a powerful antioxidant that may help prevent 
or delay some types of cell damage.
