It also helps white blood cells function more effectively, strengthening your defence system. It also helps prevent infection, promote recovery from illness, and accelerate wound healing.
Stress and illness are known to deplete vitamin C levels.
People who have pneumonia tend to have lower vitamin C levels.
Supplementing with vitamin C has been shown to shorten recovery time.
Daily supplementation with vitamin C can help improve iron absorption from your diet.
Vitamin C promotes the conversion of poorly absorbed iron (such as plant-based iron) into a more easily absorbed form.
Consuming just 100mg of vitamin C may improve iron absorption by 67%, which may help reduce the risk of anaemia in people prone to iron deficiency.
Vitamin C supplementation reduces tiredness and fatigue by aiding in iron absorption, essential for oxygen transport and energy production. Iron is a critical component of haemoglobin, the molecule responsible for carrying oxygen in the blood to tissues and cells.
By enhancing iron uptake, vitamin C ensures efficient oxygen delivery to muscles and organs, optimising energy metabolism and reducing feelings of tiredness and fatigue.
Additionally, vitamin C is an antioxidant, combating oxidative stress that can contribute to fatigue. Its role in synthesising neurotransmitters in energy regulation further supports its fatigue-reducing effects.
Overall, vitamin C supplementation promotes vitality and combats fatigue through its multifaceted mechanisms in the body.
Heart disease is a leading cause of death worldwide.
Many factors increase the risk of heart disease, including high blood pressure and high levels of cholesterol.
Studies show that vitamin C may help reduce these risk factors and the risk of heart disease by 25%.
Vitamin C supplements have been found to lower blood pressure in healthy adults and those with high blood pressure.
Vitamin C supplementation plays a crucial role in promoting the production of new collagen, a structural protein essential for the health of ligaments, bones, teeth, and skin. Here's how it contributes:
- Collagen Synthesis: Vitamin C is required for the enzymatic reaction to convert proline and lysine into hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine. These hydroxylated amino acids are essential for the stability and structure of collagen molecules. Without sufficient vitamin C, collagen synthesis is impaired, leading to weakened connective tissues in ligaments, bones, teeth, and skin.
- Cross-linking of Collagen Fibres: Vitamin C also plays a role in the cross-linking of collagen fibres, strengthening collagen network structure. Cross-linking enhances the stability and resilience of connective tissues, improving their ability to withstand mechanical stress and reducing the risk of injury or damage.
- Antioxidant Protection: Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant, scavenging free radicals that can damage collagen molecules and impair collagen synthesis. By neutralizing oxidative stress, vitamin C helps preserve the integrity of collagen fibres and supports their healthy production.
- Enhanced Wound Healing: Collagen is essential for wound healing, providing the structural framework for tissue repair. Vitamin C supplementation accelerates wound healing by promoting collagen synthesis at the site of injury, facilitating the formation of new tissue and minimizing scar formation.
- Maintenance of Skin Health: Collagen is abundant in the skin and contributes to its strength, elasticity, and hydration. Vitamin C supplementation supports the production of new collagen in the skin, helping maintain its youthful appearance, reducing the formation of wrinkles, and improving overall skin health.
In summary, vitamin C supplementation contributes to new collagen production in ligaments, bones, teeth, and skin by promoting collagen synthesis, enhancing collagen cross-linking, providing antioxidant protection, accelerating wound healing, and maintaining skin health.
Vitamin C supplements bolster the immune system during and after intense physical exercise by enhancing white blood cell function and reducing exercise-induced oxidative stress.
Intense exercise can temporarily weaken the immune system, increasing susceptibility to infections.
Vitamin C supports the production and function of white blood cells, which are crucial for immune defence.
Additionally, its antioxidant properties help mitigate oxidative damage caused by exercise, preserving immune function.
Thus, vitamin C supplementation aids in maintaining a robust immune response during strenuous physical activity, reducing the risk of illness and supporting overall health.

What is Buffered Vitamin C?
Ascorbic acid has an acidic pH of ±2 (a pH of 7 is neutral). When not digesting, the stomach is pH 4-6. This acid level helps eliminate dangerous microbes. Buffered Vitamin C (calcium and sodium ascorbate) is pH neutral (7) and, therefore, less acidic and more gentle on the stomach. Some people may experience stomach discomfort from taking high doses of Vitamin C as ascorbic acid and might want to consider Buffered Vitamin C.
Buffered Vitamin C is the most bioavailable, rapidly absorbed form of vitamin C available. It's gentle on the stomach and perfect for those sensitive to citrus fruits.
How to make your own fresh Buffered Vitamin C (sodium ascorbate):
Combine MojoMe Ascorbic Acid with Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) at a ratio of 2:1 (2 parts Ascorbic Acid to 1 part Sodium Bicarbonate) and mix with ±120ml water (at room temperature to dissolve easily) or fruit juice, stir and drink. (The fizz will recede after a few seconds)
Note: Do not use “Baking Powder” instead of “Baking Soda” because it is not the same.
Suggested Use:
For adults and children older than 9 years.</>
Take 1/4 teaspoon (1000mg) daily (dissolved in water, fruit juice, protein shakes or smoothies) or as recommended by your healthcare provider.
Vitamin C is most effectively absorbed when taken with food. It can easily be stirred into drinks for a sharp refreshing taste similar to fruit acids such as lemons and is particularly useful for those who wish to take large amounts of vitamin C or those who find tablets difficult to swallow.
Benefits of Vitamin C Supplementation for Skin Care
Vitamin C supplementation protects the skin against free radicals by neutralising oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, pollution, and other environmental factors.
As an antioxidant, vitamin C scavenges free radicals, preventing damage to collagen and elastin fibres. Thus, it maintains skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
It also helps repair and regenerate skin cells, promoting a youthful complexion.
MojoMe Vitamin C powder promotes a healthy skin moisture barrier by stimulating the production of ceramides, essential lipids that maintain skin hydration and integrity.
Ceramides form a protective barrier that locks in moisture, preventing water loss and dehydration.
Additionally, vitamin C enhances collagen synthesis, improving skin elasticity and firmness.
By boosting collagen production, vitamin C helps strengthen the skin's structure, further supporting the moisture barrier.
Regular use of vitamin C powder promotes hydrated, supple skin and protects against environmental stressors that can compromise moisture levels.
Vitamin C powder helps minimise fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen synthesis, which is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness.
It also acts as a potent antioxidant, neutralising free radicals that contribute to premature ageing and skin damage.
By protecting against oxidative stress, vitamin C helps prevent the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Regular application of vitamin C powder enhances skin texture, promotes a smoother complexion, and rejuvenates the skin, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
Vitamin C powder brightens skin complexion by inhibiting melanin production, reducing the appearance of dark spots, and promoting an even skin tone.
As an antioxidant, vitamin C neutralises free radicals that can cause hyperpigmentation and dullness, resulting in a brighter and more radiant complexion.
Additionally, vitamin C enhances collagen synthesis, improving skin texture and reducing the visibility of imperfections.
Regular use of vitamin C powder helps diminish discolouration, revealing a luminous and youthful glow while also providing protection against environmental stressors that can contribute to skin dullness.
Vitamin C powder supercharges the body's native collagen production by facilitating the enzymatic reactions necessary for collagen synthesis.
It serves as a cofactor in the conversion of proline and lysine into hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, key components of collagen molecules. By optimising these reactions, vitamin C ensures the efficient production of collagen, essential for skin elasticity and firmness.
Additionally, vitamin C acts as an antioxidant, protecting existing collagen from degradation by neutralising free radicals.
This dual action of promoting collagen synthesis and protecting existing collagen enhances the skin's natural resilience, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.

I have been buying this as a gift for friends and family. I really can’t rate its effectiveness.
Just started using it for about 2 weeks now. So far so good. Dissolves perfectly in my coffee. No taste. Saw a difference in my hair fall, hoping it gets even better by continuing the collagen.
Too early to say, don’t see results yet. Dissolves better than other collagen I have used.
Haven’t used it alot so can’t tell if there’s improvement yet
I haven’t used it for long enough to see results.
