If you want to fight flu, you should take Vitamin C. In a recent study, it’s found that Vitamin C can effectively prevent flu.

The study led by Gorton HC and Jarvis K and published in Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics involved 252 students aged 18 to 30 as study subjects and 463 students aged 18 to 32 as controls.

It was found in the study that those who took 1000 mg of vitamin C three times a day were 85 percent less likely to have flu or more likely to reduce flu symptoms.

Studies have found that taking vitamin C boosts immune responses. Cold symptoms were also reduced and relieved in the vitamin C group.

The researchers found that reported flu cases in the study group decreased 85 percent compared to the controls after administration of high doses of vitamin C.
