We conducted a thorough evaluation of how vitamin C, when combined with pleuran, impacts asthma control and respiratory issues in children suffering from perennial asthma. The study was meticulously designed as a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 230 children aged 7 to 17 years. This means that neither the participants nor the researchers knew who was receiving the active treatment or the placebo, ensuring the findings were reliable.
The results were promising, especially for children under 12 years. They showed significant improvements in asthma control compared to those receiving only the placebo treatment. Meanwhile, older children (12 years and above) experienced fewer respiratory infections with the combination treatment. Overall, by the end of the 48 weeks, a majority of children on the pleuran and vitamin C treatment reported better asthma control compared to those on the placebo.
While the combination of pleuran and vitamin C was indeed beneficial for managing asthma, we must note that the study did not specifically isolate the effect of vitamin C alone on allergies or asthma. Thus, it is hard to draw definitive conclusions about vitamin C's effectiveness independently from pleuran. However, the approach suggested that using these supplements together could offer a helpful boost in managing asthma symptoms.

Nice, tasty gummy vitamins! I bought them for my school-aged child, who previously wouldn’t eat vitamins. We take one each day, and thankfully, there has been no allergy.

Vitamin C enhances NK cell proliferation
We explored the effects of vitamin C on natural killer (NK) cell activity in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Our research involved isolating NK cells from 29 CAD patients and treating them with various stimulatory factors, including ascorbic acid—better known as vitamin C.
What we found was quite interesting: when NK cells were treated with ascorbic acid, there was a significant increase in their ability to proliferate. This meant that the NK cells were more active and potentially more effective in responding to threats in the body, which is vital for those dealing with heart conditions.
Furthermore, we measured serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, discovering a negative correlation between LDH and NK cell activity. Higher LDH levels seemed to indicate lower proliferation capability in NK cells influenced by interleukins.
Overall, our study suggests that vitamin C could play a positive role in enhancing immune function in CAD patients by promoting NK cell proliferation. However, it's important to note that while vitamin C shows promise, further research is needed to fully understand its impact on cardiovascular health and immune regulation.

Best vitamin C; it does not irritate the stomach and is similar to gummies. At the onset of cardiovascular disease, I took one every three hours, and by the next day, the illness had disappeared.

Effectiveness of Vitamin C on Colds
We explored the effects of vitamin C on the common cold and pneumonia by examining a range of studies. Interestingly, research on animals suggests that vitamin C may have protective effects against infections. However, when it comes to preventing colds in the general population, taking more than 1 gram of vitamin C per day didn’t show significant benefits.
But there's a twist! Participants engaged in heavy physical activities saw their cold incidence reduced by half with vitamin C supplementation. Additionally, regular intake of 1 gram or more daily was linked to a 15% decrease in cold severity. While some therapeutic trials showed inconsistent results when vitamin C was taken after cold symptoms appeared, two studies did indicate that larger doses (6-8 grams per day) could effectively shorten the duration of colds compared to lower doses.
Our investigation also looked into pneumonia, but the studies were conducted in unique settings, such as a boarding school and military recruits. This makes it hard to generalize the findings to the wider population. Yet, some trials suggested benefits for pneumonia patients. Finally, the role of vitamin C in treating COVID-19 and sepsis remains unclear, with mixed results.
Given that vitamin C seems to alleviate symptoms and shorten the duration of colds, while being safe and affordable, it might be worth considering a dose of 6-8 grams per day to see if it helps at an individual level.

Excellent product! I repeatedly buy it due to its noticeable orange flavour. I take it regularly, and on days when I feel a cold coming on, I double the dosage, which makes symptoms disappear quickly. Without doubt, this has been a very successful remedy for me.
