Most of the copper in the diet comes from the green buildup in cold water copper pipes. The antioxidant value of vitamin C is an exceedingly poor 2.2 - no vitamin is a valuable antioxidant. So there's real value in synthetic and commercial vitamin C. For those allergic to corn and citrus sources, synthetic vitamin C may be their only source of vitamin C.

It boosts the immune system, protects the cells from free radical damage and it also smooths out the texture of the skin when used topically. I see to eat that i get my daily Vitamin-C from natural fruits juices plus ascorbic acid supplements. Ascorbic acid does a lot of things inside and outside the body.
