What kind of vitamins aid in immunity and defense against colds and infections? |
With the winter time and cold weather, I would like to know what I can take that will boost my immunity. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). The naturally occuring one is better than the tablets. Take lots of citrous fruits none really work. zinc might (which is what is in zicam). vitamin C does if youre under a lot of phsyical stress, like if youre an endurance athlete but doesnt help much for the average person. ecchinacea is recommended by a lot of people too, even though its a proven failure Vitamin C , A+E assuming that yr food is good and you are healthy sure other vitamins are important especially B1, B2, B6, B12 advise to take : FORCEVAL which has 24 Vitamins and Minerals U may send e-mail to help u more... regards After years of having been told that "Echinaccia " and " Vitamin C" can help prevent or ease the symptoms of a cold, studies quoted las year here in Australia, apparently show that they have no real affect once you have the cold but they may help with long time use to build the immune system. I also have tried garlic capsules and zinc capsules. VITAMIN C Vitamin C works well for me. I take a supplement along with my multi-vitamin daily. I rarely get sick. The only vitamin that has been shown to help is Vitamin C. If you take large doses of Vitamin C within the first 48 hours of the onset of illness, then studies have shown that the length of the illness will be shortened by 1-2 days. No other vitamins and/or supplements have been shown to help. All you get if you buy those other vitamins is expensive pee. |
