IN COSMETICS
Vitamin C is essential for the well-being of the skin because it is a powerful anti-oxidant: it fights the effects of free radicals and stimulates collagen, making the skin more elastic and turgid. Furthermore, thanks to its slightly exfoliating action, it accelerates cell turnover and makes the complexion brighter.
This vitamin is also valuable in the treatment and prevention of skin spots.
GENERAL INFO, HISTORICAL NOTES AND CURIOSITIES
Ascorbic acid (also known as vitamin C and antiscorbutic principle) is an organic compound present in nature with antioxidant properties.
The first evidence in which the food deficiency-disease relationship of scurvy was clinically and experimentally correlated took place in May 1747 by a Royal English Navy surgeon, Dr. James Lind.
