Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is a vitamin found in a great amount of food. However, even when it is present in fruits, and vegetables. The regular diet of a United States citizen doesn't always include things like: broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, cabbage, turnips, tomatoes, and citric like grapefruit, and other fruits. Americans don't eat many fruits and vegetables. Thus, the consumption of vitamin c is very low. Therefore, companies extract it to sell it as an alimentary supplement to counter that underconsumption.
True. Why? Because most people are eating fast food or junk food and not eating healthy or being nutritious and that can cause the vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin A to decrease
