Vitamin C Deficiency Symptoms
Vitamin C deficiency can lead to scurvy, characterized by fatigue, swollen gums, joint pain, and easy bruising. It impairs immune function, increasing susceptibility to infections and delaying wound healing. Additionally, it can cause skin issues, such as dry skin and poor collagen synthesis, along with dental problems like gingivitis. Mood changes, anemia, and impaired growth in children may also occur. Long-term deficiency may increase the risk of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular issues. To prevent deficiency, it is essential to consume adequate vitamin C through fruits and vegetables or supplements if necessary.
