Vitamin C is an Antioxidant and Essential Nutrient that has many, many functions! For example, it helps produce collagen, reduce oxidative stress, and enhance wound healing.
Vitamin C cannot be stored in the body, so you need it in your diet every day.
Unfortunately, the Vitamin C content in fruit and vegetables is influenced by the seasons, transport routes, type and duration of storage, the method of preparation and the possible chlorination of the drinking water. Vitamin C is further destroyed by cutting, crushing, heating or when in contact with copper or iron, as well as preparation in the (slightly) alkaline range. When cooking in boiling water, the valuable vitamin is not only flushed out, but mostly also poured out with the cooking water.
