Vitamin C has many roles in wound healing, and a deficiency of this vitamin has multiple effects on tissue repair. Vitamin C deficiencies result in impaired healing and have been linked to decreased collagen synthesis and fibroblast proliferation, decreased angiogenesis, and increased capillary fragility. Also, vitamin C deficiency leads to an impaired immune response and increased susceptibility to wound infection.
Vitamin C is a safe and effective adjunctive therapy for acute and chronic pain relief in specific patient groups.
But what form of Vitamin C should you take?
Ascorbic Acid, Sodium Ascorbate, or Liposomal Vitamin C?
