Vitamin C has long been touted for its many health benefits. In addition to being a fantastic immune booster it is also essential in the production of vital regenerative cells within the body. The regenerative power of vitamin C is also responsible for a variety of cosmetic benefits. Research has shown that skin cells respond very favorably to vitamin C therapy, resulting in a reduction of fine lines, age spots, and sun damage. The power of vitamin C is due primarily to its actions on 3 key elements of skin care. These elements are essential to maintaining youthful, radiant skin for decades.
Sailors who were unable to eat fresh fruits during the long journeys from Europe to the Americas would often develop scurvy, a disease which affected the connective tissue of its sufferers.

Collagen is the building blocks of all connective tissue including the skin. Vitamin C is a key component in the body's production of collagen. If there is no vitamin C available, the body will produce only limited quantities which results in a variety of diseases including scurvy. By applying vitamin C to the skin, the user can improve collagen production on the surface which reduced fine lines, wrinkles, and other ailments resulting from a lack of available collagen.
Vitamin C is also vital in the production of antioxidants within the body. Antioxidants protect against free radical damage, and cellular degeneration.
