Daily vitamin C has long been associated with good health - ever since the days that sailors discovered the potent effect of citrus fruits in combating the perils of scurvy on long sea voyages. Science has now provided us with a whole list of other benefits derived from this most famous of all vitamins. • It is a powerful antioxidant, forming part of the body's defence system against the harmful effects of free radicals. Research is continuing into the possible role of vitamin C in the prevention of heart disease and cancer. Vitamin C is a truly beneficial supplement for the skin, as it increases the formulation of intercellular collagen. Vitamin C is necessary for the maintenance of healthy connective tissue. Vitamin C is water soluble, and is secreted from the body. Since humans are among the few animals that are unable to make their own vitamin C, they must therefore get it from their food, drink and other supplements. The need for adequate levels of vitamin C is very evident. Science reports that one cigarette destroys 25mg of vitamin C. Stress, medication and environmental factors all heavily deplete the body of this vitamin.

  Deficiency soon results in bleeding, especially from small blood vessels (capillaries) under the skin and from the gums, and wounds heal more slowly. Oat bran is a soluble fibre found in unrefined oats. It acts like a sponge, absorbing water in the stomach and small intestine, slowing down the digestion process and giving a feeling of satisfaction. Research shows that soluble fibre can also help reduce cholesterol levels in the bloodstream.
