Humans, and other primates are one of the very few species that don't create their own Vitamin C in the form of Ascorbic Acid. We're missing one of the enzymes, so we have to get it in our diet.

So when an animal fasts, I guess their bodies will be getting vitamin c during the fasting process. But what happens with us? How can our tissues regenerate when Vitamin C is involved in so many of those processes? We don't store it as it is a water soluble vitamin and not fat soluble, it should be completely gone within a day or two.

So how can humans fast for weeks without it, and do we get the same benefits from fasting that an animal would when the animal would be generating lots of vitamin c?
