The role and efficacy of VC infusion

If you find that your physical fitness has declined, you must find ways to improve it, otherwise you will only develop some diseases. At this time, you can actually give yourself a VC infusion, which can achieve many effects and functions. The most common one is that it can promote the synthesis of collagen on your skin, making your skin look better than before.

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, can treat scurvy, fight viruses, promote tissue cell repair, resist oxidation, and fight cancer. It is widely used as an auxiliary medicine and is beneficial to the recovery of diseases.

⑴Promote collagen synthesis. When vitamin C is deficient, collagen synthesis is impaired, leading to scurvy.

⑵ Promote the synthesis of neurotransmitters (5-hydroxytryptamine and norepinephrine).

⑶ Promote steroid hydroxylation. Patients with high cholesterol should supplement adequate amounts of vitamin C.

⑷ Promote the hydroxylation and detoxification of organic matter or poisons. Vitamin C can increase the activity of mixed function oxidase and enhance the detoxification (hydroxylation) process of drugs or poisons.

Reduction effect. Vitamin C can exist in the body in either an oxidized or reduced form, so it can act as a hydrogen donor or a hydrogen acceptor, playing an important role in the redox process in the body.

⑴ Promote antibody formation. High concentrations of vitamin C help reduce cystine in food protein to cysteine, which in turn helps synthesize antibodies.

⑵Promote iron absorption. Vitamin C can reduce the difficult-to-absorb trivalent iron into easily absorbed divalent iron, thereby promoting the absorption of iron. In addition, it can also make the sulfhydryl group of ferrous chelating enzymes and other enzymes in an active state so that they can play their role effectively. Therefore, vitamin C is an important auxiliary drug for the treatment of anemia.

⑶ Promote the formation of tetrahydrofolate. Vitamin C can promote the reduction of folic acid to tetrahydrofolate and then exert its effect, so it also has a certain therapeutic effect on megaloblastic anemia.

⑷Maintain the activity of sulfhydryl enzymes.

Other Features

⑴Detoxification. Supplementing the body with a large amount of vitamin C can alleviate the toxic effects of heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic on the body.

⑵Prevent cancer. Many studies have shown that vitamin C can block the synthesis of carcinogens N-nitroso compounds and prevent cancer.

⑶ Eliminate free radicals. Vitamin C can eliminate free radicals such as supernegative oxygen ions (O2-), hydroxyl free radicals (OH·), organic free radicals (R·) and organic peroxyl radicals (ROO·) in the body by gradually donating electrons to convert into semi-deoxyascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid; it can reduce tocopherol free radicals back to tocopherol, and the ascorbic acid free radicals generated by the reaction can be reduced to ascorbic acid by the action of NADH2 system enzymes under certain conditions.
