Abstract Objective: To examine the impact of Vitamin C supplementation on skin health, focusing on collagen production and skin elasticity.

Context: Vitamin C plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis, which is vital for maintaining skin structure and elasticity. This study aims to determine whether Vitamin C supplementation can improve skin health by enhancing collagen production.

Methods Used: A controlled trial was conducted with 150 participants aged 30-50 years, divided into two groups. One group received 1,000 mg of Vitamin C daily, while the other received a placebo for 10 weeks. Skin elasticity, hydration, and collagen levels were measured at the beginning and end of the study.

Researchers' Summary of Findings: The Vitamin C group showed a significant improvement in skin elasticity and collagen levels compared to the placebo group. Additionally, participants in the Vitamin C group reported better skin hydration and reduced signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles.

Health Implications: Vitamin C supplementation may promote skin health by boosting collagen production and improving skin elasticity. These results suggest that Vitamin C can be a valuable addition to skincare routines, especially for individuals seeking to maintain youthful and resilient skin.
