Get your fill of vitamin C, especially when the temperature starts to dip. Researchers continue to explore the potential benefits of vitamin C for combating the common cold. A recent study suggests it may be beneficial only in extreme cold. In studies of people under physical stress in very cold weather, vitamin C reduced the incidence of colds by 50 percent and symptom days by 8 percent.
Getting 1,200 milligrams of vitamin C per day from food and supplements can make your real age as much as 1 year younger.
