Vitamin C isn’t just what you find in your fruit and veg, it’s actually a powerful antioxidant that can help you look and feel better.
Not only is it good for the immune system, but it also reduces fatigue, fights off inflammation, and promotes collagen production, which leads to brighter, plumper skin.
Sounds good right? But don’t worry, you don’t have to gorge on oranges to feel the benefit.
