Vitamin C deficit

[willybetts66]

What happens to the body when we dont get enough vitamin C? I wanted to know what kind of things to expect if that’s the case. Does skin take longer to heal ???

Well, you can get old school maladies like scurvy for sure. It takes a while for the symptoms of deficiency to show and there are many of them, including issues with the skin and bruising.

Won’t take long to develop scurvies.

Scurvy - nasty stuff like loose teeth, gum issues and so on

Skin issues, fatigue, slow or impaired wound healing, dry skin.
If your diet is at least somewhat balanced I'd say it's fairly uncommon that you would develop a deficiency.

Extreme case wpukd be scurvy, but if your diet is right and balanced it should be a non issue

If you have any doubts about your vitamin C level i would go and get some bloodwork tested. You can know for sure whats going on.
