Laroscorbine also affects hemoglobin formation and red blood cell development. Ascorbic acid is necessary for the metabolism of Protid, Lipid, and Glucid, contributing to the synthesis of substances in the body such as catecholamines and adrenocortical hormones. Vitamin C combines with Vitamin A and vitamin E in anti-oxidants by neutralizing free radicals generated by metabolic reactions in the body. Since then, the cell membrane is protected intact.
