Vitamin C molecule
Vitamin C. Computer model of a molecule of ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Atom are represented as spheres and are colour-coded; carbon (grey), hydrogen (blue) and oxygen (red). Vitamin C is an essential vitamin that is found in fruit and green vegetables. It is needed for the growth and maintenance of bones, teeth, skin and blood vessels. It is also a powerful antioxidant. Deficiency in vitamin C leads to scurvy, which causes bleeding gums and anaemia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Vitamin C molecule, also known as ascorbic acid. The computer-generated model presents each atom as vibrant spheres, color-coded to represent carbon in grey, hydrogen in blue, and oxygen in red. Vitamin C is an indispensable nutrient that can be found abundantly in fruits and green vegetables. Its significance lies in its role for the growth and maintenance of bones, teeth, skin, and blood vessels. Beyond its structural importance, this essential vitamin possesses remarkable antioxidant properties. Acting as a powerful shield against harmful free radicals within our bodies, it helps protect our cells from oxidative stress. However, when there is a deficiency of vitamin C present within our system, scurvy may develop - a condition characterized by bleeding gums and anemia. This stunning illustration not only highlights the chemical composition of this vital compound but also serves as a reminder of the crucial role it plays in maintaining our overall health. As we marvel at this biochemistry masterpiece created through computer artwork by Science Photo Library's talented team, let us appreciate the wonders of molecular science that contribute to our well-being on both microscopic and macroscopic levels.
