Nutritionists and dietitians work in food service settings such as hospitals, schools, long-term care facilities, and restaurants to ensure the provision of nutritious and safe food. They plan menus, oversee food preparation processes, manage food budgets, and ensure compliance with food safety regulations.

Nutritionists and dietitians conduct research to advance knowledge in the field of nutrition and dietetics. They may investigate the effects of dietary patterns, nutrients, and bioactive compounds on health outcomes, explore innovative nutrition interventions, and contribute to evidence-based practice guidelines.

Nutritionists and dietitians work with athletes and sports teams to optimize performance, enhance recovery, and prevent injuries through nutrition strategies. They provide guidance on pre- and post-workout nutrition, hydration, supplements, and weight management tailored to the specific needs of athletes.

Inflammation is the first step of the beginning of chronic diseases. Left unaddressed, chronic inflammation can damage healthy cells, tissues and organs, and may cause internal scarring, tissue death and damage to the DNA. Ultimately, this can lead to the development of potentially disabling or life-threatening illnesses, such as heart attack, cancer, stroke, autoimmune diseases and Type-2 diabetes.

Vitamin C may be underappreciated for the role it plays in psychiatric health.

There is a prima facie case for recognizing vitamin C as a contributor to psychiatric health. Research shows that the brain, relative to other organs, possesses high concentrations of vitamin C. Neurons are among the cells in the body with the highest concentrations of vitamin C. Additionally, it has been suggested that 1/3 of vitamin C in the body can be found at the sites of catecholamine (dopamine, norepinephrine. epinephrine) synthesis (e.g., the adrenals - not situated in the brain but considered "neuroendocrine tissue"). Vitamin C is needed in converting dopamine to norepinephrine by the enzyme beta-dopamine hydroxylase (vitamin C keeps copper in a reduced state so that the enzyme can use it as its primary cofactor).

Animal models demonstrate that vitamin C content in neurons is more than tenfold that of glial cells. This makes sense as heightened oxidative metabolism in neurons increases their vulnerability to oxidative stress.

Additionally, reactive oxygen species, prevalent in vitamin C-rich brain areas including the hippocampus, hypothalamus, amygdala, and cerebral cortex, play a physiological role as second messengers in synaptic plasticity mechanisms. This might highlight vitamin C's function in maintaining redox balance.

Vitamin C seems to influence glutamatergic neurotransmission, and the distribution of glutamatergic NMDA receptors is notably higher in regions with substantial vitamin C concentration, such as parts of the cortex, the amygdala, and the hippocampus.

These findings collectively suggest the potential impact of vitamin C on neuropsychiatric conditions and cognitive function.
