A member asked:
Instead of taking vitamin c supplement, couldn't you just eat a few oranges a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oranges & Vitamin C: Oranges are good for you and contain vitamin C, however vitamin C tablets contain more. Tablets last about 12 hours in your body so if you take one in the a.m. and one in the p.m. you know that you are covered all day. Peace and good health.
