Well, remember when sailors with no vitamin C would die of scurvy? I heard that the body can not make its own vitamin C. So that makes vitamin C even more important.
I was telling a guy that I am 60 years old. He thought that I was younger than 60 years old. I did tell him of people that I know that were the same age as me, but they did look older, but that I try to do things that are anti-aging.
Well, I try to take vitamin C a lot. Did you know that vitamin C is an anti-aging vitamin? Yes it is true. Well, one thing that does a lot of aging to the body is a lot of oxidants to the body. That is one good thing about vitamin C is at vitamin C is an antioxidant.
Well, also I don't drink or smoke cigarettes. I was telling this person that I don't drink or smoke cigarettes, then he told me that he wanted to quit cigarettes, but then life would get too boring.
Well, maybe one might get bored, but I don't find myself bored even when I am by myself. Of course they are not trying to write a blog every night.
It would be hard to write a blog every night if I am smoking and drinking with the boys. Well, I am glad that I don't smoke. The reason that I don't smoke is that as a child I tried to smoke a cigarette butt and I didn't think much of it. So I didn't try after that.
Even when I used to hang out with smokers in high school and they would always offer me cigarettes, but I told them that I don't smoke.
I did tell the guy that even if one would smoke that if one would take vitamin C one would be age a little slower than a smoker that doesn't take vitamin C at all.
Now if one didn't want to take some vitamin C like in the picture. In the picture it is powdered vitamin C where it has a little scoop that is equal to 1000 mg of vitamin C. So the other thing one can do for vitamin C is to drink lemon peel tea.
I have a friend that always asks me over to pick of her lemon tree. She doesn't like lemons that much and neither does her husband. So I go there and pick their lemons.
One way to preserve the lemons is to peel and freeze them. I also save the peel too. Yes, I freeze the peel of the lemon too and later I can make a lemon peel tea that has vitamin C also.
There are some people that think that vitamin C will help them that have asthma. Well if one has asthma I would think that it would be a good idea to take it as people have died because they did not have access to it, as in sailors before they knew that the lack of vitamin C was causing their scurvy.
So I would take the vitamin C, if I did have asthma, but then again I am no doctor, so one would have to study the matter out if one would want to take vitamin C or not.
Of course vitamin C from food is better, and I take both.
Let's end with a scripture, For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. 1 Timothy 4:8.
