Get Back Your Vitamin C

Vitamin C is known for the invaluable role it plays in boosting the immune system. Alcohol blocks absorption of this necessary vitamin, but have no fear; there is a long list of foods that can replace what your body needs to recuperate. Some of the best sources of vitamin C include papaya, mango, bell pepper, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, strawberries, oranges and cauliflower. For a morning re-charge, whip up a Mango-Berry Smoothie and for dinner, Stir-Fried Beef with Broccoli and Bell Peppers provides a filling, vitamin C-rich meal.
