Topical Vitamin C and Skin Care
Vitamin C is naturally found in skin tissue. On the whole, it is a great anti oxidant that slows the aging process. When the skin's supply of vitamin C is depleted--through sun exposure, smoking, or pollution--the skin's ability to repair free radical damage is compromised. The end result for your face is sun damage, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.

The causes for vitamin B12 deficiency could be liver damage caused by excess alcohol intake, gastrectomy (i.e. the surgical removal of part or all of the stomach or removal of the ileum, a section of the intestine) and a poor functioning of the pancreas. Infection with Helicobacter pylori, a common cause of atrophic gastritis and ulcers, can also contribute to adult vitamin B12 deficiency.
