In the late 1920s, Albert Szent-Györgyi discovered an unknown substance in the adrenal glands. He determined its composition (C6H8O6) which was first named hexuronic acid, and later received the name ascorbic acid. At that time, he identified it as Vitamin C. Today, Vitamin C is the most well-known and most used vitamin.
Later in Szeged, he discovered how to produce this organic acid in larger quantities.
Ascorbic acid = A- former + scorbuticus (meaning: scurvy)
C-vitamin = L-ascorbic acid, whether extracted from fruits or produced in the laboratory, we obtain the same compound.
Ascorbic acid is a very fragile compound, for example, it decomposes quite rapidly when exposed to heat. Therefore, if we cook or bake vegetables and fruits, we practically destroy their vitamin C content.
