Vitamin C is required for the health of the skin, immune system and bones. Eating vitamin C-rich foods like citrus fruit may decrease the risk of osteoarthritis, cancer, heart disease and hypertension. The vitamin C in Cuties degrades rapidly with exposure to heat, light and air. Maximize the amount of vitamin C you get from Cuties by storing the fruit in a cool, dark location. Use Cuties within three to four days of purchase and consume the fruit as soon as possible after peeling.
Dry and splitting hair due to a Vitamin C deficiency may lead to hair loss or excessive hair shedding. Your daily dose of 2 tablets of Viviscal Extra Strength hair growth supplements contains 118 mg. of Vitamin C, which is nearly twice the RDA for an average adult.
