Usage: It is recommended for both males and females. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. It can be beneficial for those who have difficulty meeting their requirements through food alone. Vitamin C supplements can be taken with or without food, but taking them with a meal can help enhance absorption and minimize stomach discomfort for those who may be sensitive to acidic substances.

Risk Factors: Vitamin C supplements, while beneficial, pose certain risk factors:

1. Excessive Intake: Overconsumption of Vitamin C supplements can lead to adverse effects, including diarrhea, nausea, and stomach cramps.
2. Interactions: Vitamin C supplements may interact with certain medications, such as blood thinners and chemotherapy drugs. It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before starting a vitamin C supplement, especially if you are taking other medications.
3. Iron Absorption: High doses of Vitamin C can enhance the absorption of non-heme iron (plant-based iron) from food. This may pose a concern for individuals with iron overload conditions.
4. Kidney Stones: Individuals with a history of kidney stones should exercise caution with Vitamin C supplements, as large doses may increase the risk of stone formation.

Before incorporating any new supplement into your routine, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional to ensure it aligns with your individual health needs and to address any potential risks or concerns.
