Vitamin C is one of the most ubiquitous vitamins ever discovered. In natural vitamin C most of<br />

the outer electrons are in high quantum energy states, so they play with the light and make the<br />

shimmer.<br />

In synthetic vitamin C the electrons are in lower stats and are photonic duds.<br />

Besides playing a paramount role as an anti-oxidant and free radical scavenger, Vitamin C has<br />

been suggested to be an effective antiviral agent by some very respected scientists. Although the<br />

antiviral properties of vitamin C remain the subject of great debate in some circles, this watersoluble<br />

vitamin remains one of the most popular and important vitamins. Vitamin C is commonly<br />

found naturally in peppers, citrus fruits, tomatoes, melons, broccoli, and green leafy vegetables<br />

such as spinach, turnip, and mustard greens. The primary function of vitamin is to assist in the<br />

production of collagen, although it is becoming rapidly identified as a key player in detoxifying<br />

the body from foreign substances. Other reported uses of vitamin C are healing wounds and<br />

burns, accelerate healing after surgery, decreasing blood cholesterol, reduce blood clotting, offer<br />

protection against cancer agents, and extend life.<br />
