Diabetics need additional amounts of ascorbic acid compared to other categories of people. This is due to the fact that vitamin C can compensate for the reduced level of insulin in the blood, which is involved in normal conditions for the absorption of the vitamin by cells. Ascorbic acid has a lot of useful properties: it maintains a normal concentration of cholesterol in the blood; prevents cataracts; eliminates infections by stimulating the immune system.
