Vitamin C - Where To Get This Face Wrinkle Removing Vitamin
In the previous article we discussed the role of Vitamin C in neutralizing free radicals. Recall that free radicals seriously damage living human cells. Vitamin C as an antioxidant scavenges (neutralizes) free radicals. This means that Vitamin C reduces the aging that free radicals bring on.
Vitamin A Products
Free radicals destroy collagen that is a major component of healthy skin. Without proper collagen, skin can be wrinkled or flabby.

Vitamin C Supplements
There are numerous sources of Vitamin C supplements in your local metropolitan area and online (Internet). When you are shopping for Vitamin C supplements, be aware of the products that have only the Ascorbic acid in some binder/filling and the products that have a whole food, natural form of Vitamin C.
The whole food natural form of Vitamin C will be significantly more expensive but many people prefer this form of Vitamin C since they believe that it is more easily used by the body since it is in its completely natural state, in other words directly from nature.
Vitamin C Derivatives
There are various derivatives of Vitamin C that are found in various skin care products. Vitamin C is a bit of a delicate darling, in that it is easily destroyed or rendered ineffective by exposure to air (oxygen) exposure to heat, etc. The idea of the derivatives is that they can produce a similar effect in the area of skin care, wrinkle prevention, etc. and be more stable than Vitamin C itself.
Two popular derivatives that you will see on the ingredient list of some topical skin care products are: ascorbyl palmitate and magnesuim ascorbyl phosphate. Ascorbyl palmitate can be dissolved in fat. Magnesuim ascorbyl phosphate can be dissolved in water. How the substance can be dissolved is important in its use, transport and reaction with the human tissues.
Research continues on these substances and other derivatives. Some folks are interested in these derivatives, which we could call, "man made chemicals". while others would prefer to stay with an all natural, whole food Vitamin C product that has been manufactured by Mother Nature.
