VITAMIN C
Ascorbic Acid
Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, has several important functions. These include: helping to protect cells and keeping them healthy. maintaining healthy skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage. During the menopause oestrogen levels decline and the first signs of skin ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles and a drop in skin tone could start to emerge. Vitamin C helps to take up the slack and works extra hard to maintain collagen production and compensate for the lack of oestrogen.
