How Does Vitamin C Help Prevent Colds?
Vitamin D may help people avoid getting a cold this fall and winter, a new study suggests. A study of 164 male military recruits found that those who took a dose of vitamin D throughout the darker months of the year were slightly less likely to miss work due to respiratory illness. Experts say study on an appropriate dose is still needed before they can recommend that vitamin D does lower the risk of respiratory infections.
