The right answer is vitamin C—citric acid.


Vitamin C or ascorbic acid protects against cellular aging, is essential for the immune defenses and increases the assimilation of iron of plant origin.


Citrate is a biological molecule found in all living organisms because it is involved in the Krebs cycle (or citrate cycle) to produce energy.
