Pharmacology
Ascorbic Acid, a form of Vitamin C, is essential as it cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained through diet or supplements. It plays crucial roles in tissue growth and repair, adrenal gland function, immune enhancement, and maintaining healthy gums. As an antioxidant, it protects against pollution and infection, reducing cellular damage. It also acts as a coenzyme necessary for wound healing, drug metabolism, and cholesterol and folic acid metabolism, supporting overall health including skin and hair health.
