Testing Vitamin C

Описание: Did you know your Vitamin C supplement can perform a magic trick?
Here’s a super simple science experiment that shows the powerful antioxidant properties of Vitamin C — the Vitamin C Betadine Test!

In this test, we mix a small amount of Betadine solution (which contains iodine and is brown in color) with water. Then comes the fun part: we add a Vitamin C supplement (either in powder form or a crushed tablet) into the mix.

Watch closely — as the Vitamin C dissolves, it starts reacting with the iodine in the Betadine, and the brown color disappears right before your eyes!
This is because Vitamin C reduces iodine to iodide, neutralizing it and removing the color. It’s a cool and clear demonstration of how Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant, fighting oxidative substances in the body.

While this isn’t a medical test, it’s a fun, visual way to see the science behind what Vitamin C does for our health.
