Unlike most mammals, humans don't have the ability to make their own vitamin C. We must, therefore, obtain vitamin C through our diet. Vitamin C is the most used supplement in the world. There is a good reason for this as the science behind the many benefits of vitamin C is solid. Dr. Albert Szent Gyorgi, a Nobel Prize winner in physiology/medicine and Dr. Linus Pauling twice awarded Nobel Prize known as the Father of Vitamin C, performed innumerable experiments proving that man, unlike most animals, is dependent upon vitamin C for a healthy existence. Individuals with high blood levels of vitamin C may significantly reduce the risk of stroke. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
