Welcome healthy friends! In today's episode, I dive deep into the role of vitamin C in the body, challenging the conventional perspective most of us have always believed. We'll explore how vitamin C helps to detoxify and cleanse the body, rather than just boosting the immune system.

Join me as we unravel the truth behind vitamin C, its sources, and its actual impact on our health. Whether it's from food or high-quality supplements, understanding the right kind of vitamin C can make a significant difference. Let's rethink vitamin C together!
