Protein formation
Vitamin C may also play a role in protein synthesis, which is a significant function. Vitamin C aids in the production of collagen, which is essential for protecting our skin against wrinkling. Consuming adequate quantities of vitamin C strengthens and firms the skin, thereby delaying the onset of ageing. Hydroxyproline, one of the amino acids, is synthesised in the presence of vitamin C and aids in the formation of collagen.
