Fun fact: most mammals produce their own Vitamin C internally. Notable exceptions: humans, fruit bats, primates, capybaras and of course, guinea pigs.
These species must get their Vitamin C from fruits and vegetables. Which is why veggies, along with hay, form the cornerstones of a healthy guinea pig's diet. Young, pregnant, nursing, and recovering cavies require extra.
