Vitamin C and zinc affect our body’s defence by maintaining the normal function of the immune system. In a complex immune system body’s white blood cells (WBC) play a significant role in defending against viruses and bacteria. Different types of WBC kill bacteria, others produce antibodies against viruses. Vitamin C level is high in white blood cells. When WBC defend against viruses and bacteria in common cold, vitamin C level in cells collapses. The level can be returned to original level in about a week by taking a higher amount of vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to maintain the normal function of the immune system also in sportsmen during and after intense physical exercise.
Vitamin C is also an antioxidant by protecting cells from oxidation stress caused by smoking, intense exercise and pollutants. Sufficient intake of vitamin C contributes to reduce tiredness and fatique.
A food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
