Unfortunately, today’s food supply does not supply all the vitamins and minerals you need. Emergen-C Vitamin fizzy drink dietary supplement is not only a super non-caffeinated energy booster, it powers up the immune system to fight infections. This review included following 3 people (started with 5) for the better part of a year (two winters) to see how they faired in terms of illness. Hardly a true scientific study but certainly enough evidence to post a thorough review.
Overall, participants suffered substantially fewer illnesses-- even the one who traveled often on planes. This is good news for athletes because nothing is more aggravating that training for something only to get bronchitis a day before the event. This potent blend of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients support healthy metabolic function.
Emergen-C is more than Vitamin C
Emergen-C has1000 mg of Vitamin C as well as 7 mineral ascorbates. 32 Mineral complexes and the B Vitamins. The foundation of Emergen-C is seven mineral ascorbates which include potassium, manganese, sodium, calcium, magnesium, chromium & zinc. This provides your body with 1,000 mg of Vitamin C in a stomach-friendly, non-acidic formula.
Unlike other vitamins, there does seem to be an advantage to drinking your vitamins in liquid form. It also offers an alternative for those who have difficulty swallowing pills. For those with general difficulty tolerating vitamins, Emergen-C works very well.
It works best if you're using it to prevent viral colds by taking it at the first sign of your symptoms. But it still helps in the middle or at the end.
We recommend taking a Calcium supplement with Emergen-C
Or you can take the formula with more calcium. The calcium neutralizes the vitamin in the system to balance the ph. Americans eat far too many acid-producing food resulting in a lot of general feeling of sluggishness and susceptibility to illness. We’d also recommend that you do not take other supplements of Vitamin C. Mega doses of vitamin C will throw your system out of balance.
Emergen-C has many flavors
There are too many to name but this comes in cranberry, pomegranate, orange, lemon. But for viral cold prevention, we'd recommend the Super Orange.
Formulations include those with calcium, glucosamine/chondroitin and electrolyte formulas. Emergen-C may be new to you but it’s been around since 1978. Alacer Corporation introduced this effervescent powdered drink mix as the “champagne of nutritional drinks”. The brand is also a strong charitable supporter with a history of having donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to breast cancer causes to poor nations in need of nutritional supplementation.
The vitamin is best taken in conjunction with a healthy diet.
While ours is not a scientific study, studies involving the effectiveness of Vitamin C in fighting illness have been conducted by Linus Pauling.
