Humans cannot synthesize their own Vitamin C, so it must be consumed through dietary sources. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and cannot be readily stored in the body. An adequate amount of Vitamin C should be consumed on a daily basis. However, many of us don’t consume sufficient amounts of Vitamin C daily from foods such as fruits and vegetables. Vitamin C is also sensitive to heat, so cooking methods may deplete Vitamin C content in foods.
There are multiple factors, including age, gender, stage of life, and smoking status, that affect the amount of Vitamin C a person needs each day. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for men and women 19 years and older is 90 mg and 75 mg per day respectively.
The main source of Vitamin C in foods we eat are fruits and vegetables. Foods such as citrus fruits, strawberries, cantaloupes, vegetables, and broccoli are all rich sources of Vitamin C. Unfortunately, national survey data shows that Americans are not meeting recommendations for daily fruit and vegetable intake.2 resulting in inadequate Vitamin C intake 3 if you are not getting enough vitamin C from your daily diet, Kirkland Signature Vitamin C 250 mg gummies can help.
SUGGESTED USE: Chew two gummies daily, preferably with a meal.
