Guest guest Posted May 7, 2000 Report Share Posted May 7, 2000 Tip of the Day Fight Fatigue With Vitamin C Feeling sluggish at the gym? You may be experiencing the effects of vitamin C deficiency. A recent study of adults in an outpatient clinic showed that a whopping 30% of the patients had depleted blood vitamin C levels. One of the first symptoms of vitamin C depletion is fatigue. In a related study, the same researchers studied a group of people with low vitamin C levels. Those who received vitamin C before a workout exercised more efficiently than those who received a placebo. Vitamin C is found in fruits and vegetables such as oranges, sweet peppers, strawberries, and even potatoes. RealAge Benefit: A daily intake of up to 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C from food and supplements can make your RealAge as much as 1 year younger.
