SARS-CoV-2 virus was found to be targeted cells may be located in the lower respiratory tract, COVID-19 infection can cause mild, moderate to severe symptoms. The main symptoms that appear are fever (> 38oC), cough and difficulty breathing. Vitamin C treatment has an antiviral effect. Clinical trials have shown that administering high doses of vitamin C has a beneficial effect against colds. As a nurse, one of the roles as an extension agent can be carried out in handling Covid-19 patients, namely providing communication, information, and education about health to the community. The role of nurses in providing education to the community is very necessary because it can make people who are given education understand the information conveyed. In this Community Service activity, the focus is on teenagers as one of the preventive efforts against the transmission of the Covid-19 virus through the provision of Health Education on the importance of consuming vitamin C according to the needs of the adolescent body.

Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) has been known as an antioxidant for most people. However, its physiological role is much larger and encompasses very different processes ranging from facilitation of iron absorption through involvement in hormones and carnitine synthesis for important roles in epigenetic processes. Contrarily, high doses act as a pro-oxidant than an anti-oxidant. This may also be the reason why plasma levels are meticulously regulated on the level of absorption and excretion in the kidney. Interestingly, most cells contain vitamin C in millimolar concentrations, which is much higher than its plasma concentrations, and compared to other vitamins. The role of vitamin C is well demonstrated by miscellaneous symptoms of its absence—scurvy. The only clinically well-documented indication for vitamin C is scurvy. The effects of vitamin C administration on cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and infections are rather minor or even debatable in the general population. Vitamin C is relatively safe, but caution should be given to the administration of high doses, which can cause overt side effects in some susceptible patients (e.g., oxalate renal stones). Lastly, analytical methods for its determination with advantages and pitfalls are also discussed in this review.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant associated with the prevention of the common cold and is also a cofactor of hydrolases that participate in the synthesis of collagen and catecholamines, and in the regulation of gene expression. In cancer, vitamin C is associated with prevention, progression, and treatment, due to its general properties or its role as a pro-oxidant at high concentration. This review explores the role of vitamin C in cancer clinical trials and the aspects to consider in future studies, such as plasmatic vitamin C and metabolite excretion recording, and metabolism and transport of vitamin C into cancer cells. The reviewed studies show that vitamin C intake from natural sources can prevent the development of pulmonary and breast cancer, and that vitamin C synergizes with gemcitabine and erlotinib in pancreatic cancer. In vitro assays reveal that vitamin C synergizes with DNA-methyl transferase inhibitors. However, vitamin C was not associated with cancer prevention in a Mendelian randomized study. In conclusion, the role of vitamin C in the prevention and treatment of cancer is still an ongoing area of research. It is necessary that new phase II and III clinical trials be performed to collect stronger evidence of the therapeutic role of vitamin C in cancer.

The purpose of this community service activity scheme for the Regional Superior Product Development Program is to overcome the problem of the Malay tapai partner since 2008, namely the texture of the prouduk that hardens before expiration, the processing process is still conventional and the packaging process is inefficient and ineffective. This greatly affects the efforts of PPPUD partners in advancing their business. The methods used are training, mentoring and activity evaluation. The result of this activity is that the texture of the tapai Malay diamond is softer and more durable using Stabilex BR. The processing process is more efficient because partners use a crystallization evaporator which can save 3 hours with the same quantity of dough. The packaging of tapai malay diamonds has undergone a more contemporary change and shortens the time in the packaging and consumption process in the minds of consumers. This PPPUD activity is very beneficial for partners, it is proven that the problems faced by PPPUD partners can be resolved properly, this is the important role of academics in advancing SMEs.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) plays an important physiological role in numerous metabolic functions. It is also a cofactor in the synthesis of important substances, in particular catecholamines and vasopressin. A decrease in the level of ascorbic acid has been noted in various diseases, often accompanying the severity of the patient’s state. The aim of this article is to review the current knowledge on the physiological role of vitamin C and the experimental evidences of its use in critically ill surgical patients. The pharmacodynamics of ascorbic acid, the possibility of using high doses of vitamin C are also considered. MEDLINE database on the PubMed platform was used to search for the literature sources with key words: vitamin C, sepsis, shock, trauma, burns.
