DVitamin C does not need to be replenished regularly.

✓ Correct answer: A. Vitamin C is easily flushed out of your body. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which means it dissolves in water and is not stored in your body for long periods of time. Instead, your body flushes out any excess vitamin C through urine. This is why it is important to consume vitamin C regularly, as your body does not have the ability to store it like it does with fat-soluble vitamins.
