Vitamin C is mainly associated with supporting immunity. According to the latest research, it can:
– reduce infection time by an average of 8% in adults and by an average of 18% in children
– reduce the risk of catching a cold in people exposed to intense exercise.
Vitamin C is provided by many products, such as vegetables and fruit. A properly composed diet allows you to meet the demand for this ingredient without the need to use vitamin preparations. Nevertheless, we know how it is, sometimes thinking about a healthy diet is beyond our strength. Then it is worth reaching for the supplementation of this vitamin, especially if we are:
– in the period of reduced immunity
– in the group of people who perform intense physical exertion
– during the recovery period after infectious diseases.
