Ward off colds with Vitamin C

yep. It works. studies (i'll cite some at some point) show that taking vitamin C and some b12 at the start of a cold can shorten the cold's duration and severity. Most colds can take up to a full 7 days to leave your system. But the vitamin C added (500 mg twice a day) plus a b12 (500-1000 mcg) added can help boost your immune system and shorten the cold... keeping you focused.

I only blog about things I do myself -- and when i feel a summer cold coming on (or a cold in the fall, as may be the case now) i take extra vitamin C and a b12 and it works for me.
