Cold & Immune Support

Fruits and vegetables can help to support the normal functioning of the immune system, thanks to their vitamin content.

Citrus fruits such as grapefruits and oranges are high in vitamin C, and broccoli is packed full of vitamins and minerals, as well as containing vitamins A, C and E, fibre and antioxidants.

Vitamin C has a number of important functions in the body. It helps to maintain normal skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage.

You can take a vitamin C dietary supplement to help top up your vitamin C levels.

Immunity is the ability of an organism to resist a toxin or infection.

You can support your immune system by ensuring that you are getting the right nutrients, through both your diet and by taking supplements.

You can take a vitamin-specific supplement if there is one you feel that you are deficient in, or else, an all-round immune support supplement.
