Feeling drained or low on energy is common in today’s busy world. While vitamin C is often associated with immune support, it also plays a role in processes linked to energy production.
Vitamin C contributes to the production of carnitine, a molecule that helps the body convert fat into usable energy. When vitamin C levels are low, muscles may have a harder time generating the fuel needed for endurance and vitality. Research suggests that low vitamin C status can be associated with tiredness and fatigue, and improving vitamin C status may help support energy in people starting out low.
Vitamin C supports normal energy metabolism and antioxidant function. Learn when IV nutrients may be considered and what to discuss with your clinician.
