Can
vitamin C prevent colds?
This
has been the subject of debate for years and several
studies have been conducted on the effects of vitamin
C. The bottom line is that there is no definitive
proof that vitamin C can prevent the onset of a cold. However,
some studies have shown evidence that vitamin C can reduce
the duration of a cold. The theory is that vitamin
C is thought to strengthen the cell membranes, thereby
preventing cold/ flu viruses from entering the interior
of the cell.
In addition to the possibility of preventing colds,
vitamin C plays an extremely important role as a key
antioxidant. While you can find good sources of
vitamin C in fruits and vegetables, most Americans do
not eat enough of these essential food groups.
