Mostly people have been using vitamin C to
boost their immune systems or to reduce allergies but a new dimension
says that it is also effective in stress management.
Small doses
of Vitamin C supplements can be really helpful in fighting stress. It
can be incorporated as a regular part of your eating habit, as it has no
side- effects. It need not always be a 'prescription only' kind of drug.
It is present in citrus fruits and fresh vegetables in large amounts.
When in the Alarm stage, a hormone called cortisol prepares the
body to fight against it. But too much exposure to stress can lead to
wear and tear of the mind and Vitamin C can help replenish this vital
faculty. Thus it can be used to fight light day-to-day stress, as well
as after the exhaustion stage to bring back the order of mind.
For
eg.- A professional who has to face stress everyday at his/her workplace
can take regular supplements of Vitamin C to keep his mental state
balanced.
