The role of vitamin C in the prevention and treatment of numerous illnesses and disorders has been documented for millennia. It is quite useful in the fight against microbiological infections. It has a wideranging effect on microorganisms. It combats harmful germs found in food. It has the ability to stimulate lymphocytes and natural killer cells, thus aiding in the battle against microorganism-caused disorders. As a result, it has pleiotropic physiological effects linked to a variety of disorders, including the common cold, sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and, most importantly, COVID-19. It has a complex pharmacokinetic profile. Absorption and elimination are highly dose-dependent and primarily regulated by a collection of saturable sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters (SVCTs). Genetic polymorphisms, environmental influences, and lifestyle decisions all influence its homeostasis. Vitamin C dietary dose depends on different age groups, health condition and lifestyle of anybody.
