Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) & Folic acid (also known as Vitamin B9) are water-soluble vitamins. Vitamin D is fat-soluble. Ascorbic acid helps integration & cohesiveness of cells by synthesizing collagen which is also known as biological glue. It is also a powerful antioxidant in the aqueous media. Vitamin D is also known as antirachitic and sun-shine vitamin which displays its roles like a hormone (pro-hormone). Vitamin D spares calcium in the body by reducing excretion and enhancing calcium absorption.

It aids in the production of DNA and RNA, the body's genetic material, and is especially important during periods of high growth, such as infancy, adolescence and pregnancy.
