However, it is for us, humans. It isn’t a necessary component of diet, at least for all mammals except guinea pigs, fruit-eating bats, the red-vented bulbul bird, and primates—which includes us. All other species make their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThey do this by converting glucuronic acid derived from glucose into ascorbic acid (C6H8O6). Three enzymes are required to make this conversion; one of these enzymes, or part of the enzyme system, is missing in primates. Irwin Stone proposed, in 1965, that a negative mutation may have occurred in these species to lose the ability to produce vitamin C. In primates, this is thought to have occurred in the region of 25 million years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnlike other vitamins, vitamin C is required in large amounts, which could only be supplied by a tropical diet high in fruit and other vegetation. If sufficient vitamin C could be obtained from such a diet, the quantity of glucose normally used to synthesize vitamin C could be channelled towards energy production. This could conceivably have been an advantage for primates or other species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhile a mere 60 mg a day can prevent scurvy, the deficiency disease first identified by Dr. James Lind in 1753, it would be illogical to assume that this is the optimal dose. A survey of doctors in the US found that those who were healthiest consumed at least 250 mg of vitamin C per day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is valid to infer from this brief history of evolution, a comparison with other species, and average excretion rates, that optimal vitamin C levels are probably above 1 000 mg, with plenty of room for individual variation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat about “hard evidence”? What levels are required to ensure maximum function of enzymes and body systems dependent on vitamin C? A quick review of some of vitamin C’s hundreds of biochemical roles will help us here. Vitamin C is required for the synthesis of collagen, our intercellular glue that keeps skin, lungs, arteries, the digestive tract, and all organs intact. It is a potent antioxidant protecting against free radicals. Energy cannot be made in any cell, brain or muscle, without adequate vitamin C. The adrenal glands have a high concentration of vitamin C, which is essential for stress hormone synthesis. Vitamin C is so central in so many chemical reactions in the body that, without it, life is simply not possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__use\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product__use__title expandable-menu__cta\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDIRECTIONS OF USE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__use__content expandable-menu__content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdults:\u003c\/strong\u003e Take 1 tablet daily or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDuration of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Consult a health-care practitioner for use beyond 2 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__warn\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product__warn__title expandable-menu__cta\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWARNINGS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__warn__content expandable-menu__content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eContains no:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gluten, soy, wheat, eggs, dairy, yeast, preservatives, artificial flavour or colour, starch, or sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCautions and warnings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Consult a healthcare practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breast-feeding; or if you are taking any prescription medication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKnown adverse reactions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hypersensitivity\/allergy to Rosa canina, rose hip dust, its constituents, or members of the Rosacea family has been known to occur; in which case, discontinue use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKeep out of reach of children.
