Description

Vitamin C and ascorbic acid are synonyms of each other. If we want to grow, develop, and maintain the tissues of our body then, we require Vitamin C or ascorbic acid. If there is a need to repair our tissues and to fight infection then there comes Vitamin C. It is found in fresh fruits like kiwi, oranges, and lemons. Excessive Vitamin C leads to diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, abdominal bloating and cramps, headache, insomnia, and kidney stones. The test used to determine deficiency and excessive Vitamin C intake is termed the Vitamin-C-ascorbic-acid test.
