Vitamin C is the main of the three ingredients in Linus Pauling's patented cure for heart disease, the other two being the amino acid lysine and nicotinic acid (a form of Vitamin B3).
Vitamin C is the most widely taken nutritional supplement and is available in a variety of forms from tablets and drink mixes to pure ascorbic acid crystals in capsules or as plain powder.

Vitamin C also functions as an essential cofactor for the enzymes involved in the synthesis of collagen — the chief structural protein in connective tissues such as bones, cartilage and skin.
Although vitamin C is well absorbed, the percent absorbed from supplements decreases with increasing dosages and optimal absorption is achieved by taking several small doses (about 200 mg per dose) throughout the day (for a total daily intake of 200-1000mg).
