mentioned before that enhances immunity . Many people will think of the nutritional elements protein . But now all warm fans must know that in addition to supplementing protein, vitamin C is also very important. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient for our human body, and its essence is an antioxidant. Scientific research shows that vitamin C participates in the synthesis of human immune proteins, regulates the body's immune response by promoting the activity of white blood cells and phagocytes, and is the "immune defense minister" of our body!
As for the question of "how to improve immunity " with vitamin C, this has also been mentioned by many experts.
However, although vitamin C supplementation can help resist the virus , the more supplements, the better. When we consume too much vitamin C, the excess vitamin C is not easily absorbed and will be converted into oxalic acid, thereby damaging the kidneys.
There will definitely be warm fans asking, how much vitamin C should I supplement every day?
For ordinary people, a daily supplement of about 100 mg of vitamin C is enough, and it is recommended to supplement vitamin C through food. Not only is it rich in nutrients, it is not easy to overdose.

said which company has the best vitamin C supply capacity? We can eat the following three kinds of fruits every now and then!
Dongzao
Among common fruits, Dongzao’s vitamin C content ranks among the best, as high as 243 mg/100g! Its vitamin C content is almost 81 times that of apples and 24 times that of kiwi fruit! 8 times as much as oranges. As long as we eat 2 to 3 winter dates a day, we can meet the body's daily vitamin C needs.
Simple 2 steps to distinguish saccharin winter jujubes by looking at the color: Winter jujubes soaked in saccharin sodium or sodium cyclamate are almost all red, or the red and green are clearly separated, and the color is very uniform and neat.
Taste: Dongzao soaked in saccharin sodium or cyclamate tastes sweeter only on the skin, and the sweetness can be a bit bitter, while the pulp is dry and astringent.
Kiwi fruit
Although the vitamin C content of kiwi fruit is not as high as that of winter dates, don’t underestimate it. Its vitamin C content is 62 grams per 100 grams, which is 12.4 times that of pears and 20 times that of apples!
At the same time, this fruit also has high dietary fiber content, with 2.6 grams of dietary fiber per 100 grams and 9.67 grams of sugar, both lower than apples. Eating it can also help smooth bowel movements and say goodbye to constipation~
Don’t eat kiwi fruit like this!
Kiwi fruit contains a lot of active protease, and the pH of kiwi fruit is relatively low. If eaten on an empty stomach, it may damage the gastrointestinal tract and may even irritate the gastric mucosa, causing the body to experience stomach pain symptoms.
Oranges
Salt-steamed oranges have become very popular these days, and almost everyone around me has heard of them! Many people feel that their throats are so sore that it feels like "swallowing a razor blade". At this time, eating some salt-steamed oranges is still helpful to relieve sore throat, dry cough and increase appetite. Oranges are a fruit with high water content and are rich in vitamin C. The vitamin C content of oranges per 100 grams is 53.2 mg, which is 2.4 times that of lemons.
