Details

Vitamin C is a powerful vitamin and antioxidant. While it is a natural compound, the body cannot make its own, so getting enough vitamin C from the diet is essential. Vitamin C is sometimes considered the “go-to” supplement as it has a wide range of benefits in the body. It is most commonly used to strengthen immunity and prevent the cold and flu, but it also improves wound healing time, boosts immunity, reduces inflammation, and promotes skin health, strong bones, clear blood vessels. It is noted that IBD (Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis) patients suffer from a shortage of Vitamin C, and that supplementation improves the condition and gut symptoms overall, including diarrhea. Hence, indications also include IBS. 

Vitamin C is a potent anti inflammatory compound and antioxidant, protecting the body from disease and aging and even helping recycle other antioxidants such as vitamins A and E, glutathione and lipoic acid, making them more effective. Due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-histamine effects, vitamin C is also effective for allergy relief, and at high doses it can act as a gentle laxative for occasional constipation, hence working as a favorable treatment the constipation variant of IBS (IBS-C).  Vitamin C is needed for the synthesis of adrenal hormones, making it an important nutrient for combating the negative effects of stress.
