The immune system is fuelled by Vitamin C.
When ill (or under the weather because illness is about to overtake us), taking 4 or 5 effervescent Vit. C tablets in water (not 5 at once, but taken individually at different times during the day/night), apparently halves the duration of colds etc.
No point taking Vitamin C supplements when we are in good health though. Our bodies get enough of it from food to keep our immune systems ticking over.
