5-HTP inhibits thyroid cold response
Effects of drugs that modify brain biogenic amine concentrations on thyroid activation induced by exposure to cold.
We delved into the effects of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) on the thyroid's response to cold exposure. Our observations indicated that 5-HTP markedly inhibited the thyroid's reaction to cold, highlighting its potential impact. The study showed that other substances influenced this response in various ways, but 5-HTP stood out in its effectiveness. Despite the promising results, it’s important to note that alterations in the thyroid’s responses were closely linked to changes in brain chemistry, rather than direct hormonal influences.

I have been using vitamins for the past month, and I can confirm they work! My back and neck aches are gone. I felt a cold wind, but after taking vitamins, I didn't even notice it. Recently, my knees were throbbing so badly I had to go to hospital! My friends also said they noticed a difference.

Lysine aids cold adaptation mechanisms
Cold exposure accelerates lysine catabolism to promote cold acclimation via remodeling hepatic histone crotonylation.
We set out to uncover how certain amino acids, particularly lysine, help with cold acclimation. Over three months, 20 men were monitored for physiological changes after being exposed to cold.
We found that continuous exposure led to faster cold-induced vasodilation and improved finger temperature. Notably, lysine was the only amino acid that significantly changed and positively correlated with these improvements in cold response.
In mouse trials, lysine supplementation helped maintain core body temperature during cold exposure, indicating its role in supporting metabolic adjustments to the cold.

MPM performance in cold environments
Effect of fly ash and curing temperature on the properties of magnesium phosphate repair mortar.
We examined how incorporating fly ash into magnesium phosphate repair mortar (MPM) influences its effectiveness in cold environments. Our investigation revealed that fly ash modifies the microstructure of the MPM, enhancing its performance without affecting the setting time or fluidity significantly.
We discovered that adding 10% to 15% fly ash improves the mechanical strength, adhesion, water resistance, and stability of the mortar. Notably, we found that the curing temperature plays a critical role; as the temperature rises, compressive strength increases, while properties like flexural strength decrease.
Interestingly, even when cured in icy conditions at -20°C or 0°C, MPM with fly ash retains good early strength and strong adhesion properties. This suggests magnesium phosphate repair mortar modified with fly ash is suitable for emergency repairs in cold weather, showcasing its potential for use in challenging environments.

Zinc’s effects on colds
Zinc for prevention and treatment of the common cold: Summary of a Cochrane review.
We explored how zinc might help in treating and preventing the common cold. The study focused on zinc's effects, isolating it from other treatments to understand its true impact on cold symptoms. By doing this, the researchers aimed to clarify whether zinc could genuinely shorten the duration of a cold or alleviate its symptoms.
The findings were intriguing but showed that zinc might not yield significant benefits for everyone. While some individuals reported a slight reduction in cold symptoms, the evidence did not strongly support zinc as an effective treatment overall.
This means that, for those seeking relief from a nasty cold, zinc alone might not be the go-to solution we hoped it would be. It’s essential to consider this information when deciding on a cold treatment plan and to approach zinc with realistic expectations.

This magnesium is excellent and of high quality. I have consumed it for a short time and have already noticed a boost in my immune system. I fell ill with a viral infection, likely the prevalent virus of 2020, but I recovered almost without noticing. A slight stuffy nose and general weakness were my symptoms, which faded in just 2 days! Previously, my colds lasted longer. I did increase my zinc intake during these days, and as soon as I could, I went straight back to my gym, discovering that my strength hadn’t diminished and there was no lingering weakness! I’m unsure if it’s a coincidence, but overall, I’m happy with this supplement.

N-acetylcysteine protects cold platelets
The effect of modulating platelet reactive oxygen species by the addition of antioxidants to prevent clearance of cold-stored platelets.
We explored the impact of N-acetylcysteine, an antioxidant, on the preservation of cold-stored platelets. The study focused on understanding how this treatment might reduce the harmful effects caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during cold storage.
Platelet concentrates were categorized into three groups: those stored at room temperature, those kept cold, and those cold-stored with added N-acetylcysteine at varying concentrations. After five days of storage, we measured ROS production, lipid peroxidation, platelet activation, and other quality indicators.
Our findings highlighted that N-acetylcysteine effectively diminished the production of ROS, thus protecting the cold-stored platelets from damage and premature clearance by the immune system in both lab settings and live models. Importantly, using the right amount of N-acetylcysteine significantly improved the survival of these platelets in circulation.
Overall, this study sheds light on the potential benefits of incorporating antioxidants in platelet storage practices to enhance their functionality and longevity.

Melatonin mitigates banana cold injury
Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals the reactive oxygen species metabolism involving in melatonin-alleviated chilling injury in postharvest banana fruit.
We explored how melatonin treatment affects chilling injury in bananas during cold storage. The study revealed that bananas treated with 500 μmol L of melatonin significantly reduced the signs of chilling injury compared to untreated control fruits during 96 hours of storage.
We observed notable changes in the activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism. The melatonin-treated bananas showed lower rates of ROS production while also displaying higher levels of beneficial compounds like ascorbic acid and glutathione. Furthermore, the treatment helped maintain the activity of key antioxidant enzymes that typically decline under cold stress.
A thorough analysis of gene expression found 1858 differentially expressed genes, indicating how melatonin influences various biological pathways in the fruit. Interestingly, melatonin seems to boost the expression of antioxidant enzyme genes while inhibiting the expression of a gene responsible for ROS production.
Overall, these findings provide valuable insights into how melatonin can effectively mitigate cold-related injuries in bananas, helping preserve their quality during storage.

Inositol enhances rapeseed cold tolerance
Inositol Improves Cold Tolerance Through Inhibiting and Increasing Ca Influx in Rapeseed ( L.).
We explored the impact of inositol on cold stress in rapeseed, an essential oilseed crop affected by low temperatures. Notably, we found that inositol plays a significant role in enhancing cold tolerance in these plants by boosting calcium ion (Ca) influx.
Our study involved identifying various genes associated with inositol and analyzing their expression under cold conditions. Interestingly, inositol appeared to inhibit the expression of calcineurin B-like genes, which are involved in regulating calcium flow, suggesting a unique pathway through which inositol aids in cold resilience.
Additionally, when we overexpressed certain genes linked to calcium flux, we noted a stronger response to cold stress, further emphasizing the importance of the inositol-Ca pathway in facilitating cold tolerance in rapeseed. These findings not only deepen our understanding of how rapeseed copes with cold conditions but also present a potential strategy for enhancing crop resilience in the face of climate challenges.

Vitamin A's key role in thermogenesis
Intact vitamin A transport is critical for cold-mediated adipose tissue browning and thermogenesis.
We explored how vitamin A affects our body’s response to cold, specifically looking at its role in transforming white fat into brown fat, a process known as browning. This transformation is significant, as it can help reduce obesity and improve metabolic health.
In our investigation, we conducted cold exposure studies involving both mice and humans. We observed that exposure to cold led to an increase in circulating vitamin A, also known as retinol, and its transporter protein, Rbp. However, in mice lacking this protein, we found that their ability to adapt to the cold and promote thermogenesis—essentially, generating heat through fat—was severely compromised.
Interestingly, we also noted that stimulating human fat cells with retinol heightened the expression of genes associated with thermogenesis and boosted mitochondrial activity, which is vital for burning fat. In humans, the rise in vitamin A during cold exposure hinted at improved fat utilization.
Overall, our findings revealed that not only are vitamin A levels responsive to cold, but effective transportation of this vitamin is crucial for cold-induced fat browning and the body's ability to generate heat.

Vitamin D3 aids cold recovery
Intake of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 Reduces Duration and Severity of Upper Respiratory Tract Infection: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Comparison Study.
We explored how 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD), a form of vitamin D, influences upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), commonly known as colds. In a carefully designed clinical study, we followed 428 participants aged 45 to 74 over a 16-week period. They were randomly assigned to receive either 10 μg of 25OHD daily or a placebo, all while maintaining a double-blind setup to ensure accurate results.
Our findings revealed that those who took 25OHD had reduced duration and severity of their cold symptoms. Participants reported improvements in their overall quality of life during the bouts of URTI. By tracking the health of the participants through surveys designed to measure cold symptoms, we gathered valuable data that indicates vitamin D3 could play a helpful role in managing colds.
This suggests that incorporating vitamin D3 into our diets may be beneficial when we catch a cold, potentially leading to a quicker recovery. It’s a promising avenue for anyone looking to ease the discomfort and duration of these frustrating infections.

I'm very pleased with these vitamins! As my child was under a year old, I carefully looked for suitable options. The composition delighted me, so I decided to try them. Although my child didn't favour the taste on its own, I noticed the benefits! My child faced colds with ease or didn’t get sick at all, while older children struggled. I highly recommend these!

I bought this for my three-year-old son, especially appreciating the liquid form. Previously, he was often ill and missed a lot of kindergarten. For the second year, we've been boosting his immune system with these products. We rarely fall ill now, and if we do, it’s usually mild. At the first sign of a cold, I give a triple dose. Vitamin C certainly strengthens his immune system, and he enjoys the sweet and sour taste.

This excellent vitamin C for children is great from six months onward. If there are no allergic reactions to citrus, it’s a worthy preventive measure and beneficial during illness to support immunity. My children enjoy the pleasant orange taste, and as soon as I see the first signs of a cold, I provide vitamin C immediately. It effectively prevents them from getting sick. I keep this in our first aid kit during cold season.

Efficacy of garlic against colds
Interventions for preventing influenza: An overview of Cochrane systematic reviews and a Bayesian network meta-analysis.
We examined the effectiveness of garlic as a treatment to prevent cold symptoms based on a comprehensive review of systematic reviews. This analysis included various studies that compared garlic and other preventative interventions against a control group receiving no treatment or a placebo.
Our findings indicated that garlic demonstrated notable advantages in reducing instances of influenza, a key player in the spectrum of cold-like illnesses. However, we also learned that the evidence surrounding garlic specifically for cold prevention isn't robust enough to make definitive claims.
It's essential to note that while garlic showed potential, vitamin C did not present any significant benefits in this context. Ultimately, the effectiveness of other interventions remains to be convincingly validated with strong scientific evidence.

An elixir of longevity with a thousand-year history of use. You can list the beneficial properties of garlic for a very long time, but the main obstacle for me has always been its smell, until I discovered this drug. The result for my husband has been a decrease in elevated cholesterol levels to the upper limit of normal and the normalisation of blood pressure after about 5.5 months. A significant "side" effect is that no one in our family has been seriously ill with viral infections or colds during the year of using this drug. If someone did fall ill, the illness passed quickly and easily. Undoubted effects and benefits! The manufacturer is reputable, so I have no desire to switch to cheaper alternatives, hence we stock up on large packages for future use.

Vitamin A's key role in thermogenesis
Intact vitamin A transport is critical for cold-mediated adipose tissue browning and thermogenesis.
We explored how vitamin A affects our body’s response to cold, specifically looking at its role in transforming white fat into brown fat, a process known as browning. This transformation is significant, as it can help reduce obesity and improve metabolic health.
In our investigation, we conducted cold exposure studies involving both mice and humans. We observed that exposure to cold led to an increase in circulating vitamin A, also known as retinol, and its transporter protein, Rbp. However, in mice lacking this protein, we found that their ability to adapt to the cold and promote thermogenesis—essentially, generating heat through fat—was severely compromised.
Interestingly, we also noted that stimulating human fat cells with retinol heightened the expression of genes associated with thermogenesis and boosted mitochondrial activity, which is vital for burning fat. In humans, the rise in vitamin A during cold exposure hinted at improved fat utilization.
Overall, our findings revealed that not only are vitamin A levels responsive to cold, but effective transportation of this vitamin is crucial for cold-induced fat browning and the body's ability to generate heat.

Melatonin mitigates banana cold injury
Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals the reactive oxygen species metabolism involving in melatonin-alleviated chilling injury in postharvest banana fruit.
We explored how melatonin treatment affects chilling injury in bananas during cold storage. The study revealed that bananas treated with 500 μmol L of melatonin significantly reduced the signs of chilling injury compared to untreated control fruits during 96 hours of storage.
We observed notable changes in the activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism. The melatonin-treated bananas showed lower rates of ROS production while also displaying higher levels of beneficial compounds like ascorbic acid and glutathione. Furthermore, the treatment helped maintain the activity of key antioxidant enzymes that typically decline under cold stress.
A thorough analysis of gene expression found 1858 differentially expressed genes, indicating how melatonin influences various biological pathways in the fruit. Interestingly, melatonin seems to boost the expression of antioxidant enzyme genes while inhibiting the expression of a gene responsible for ROS production.
Overall, these findings provide valuable insights into how melatonin can effectively mitigate cold-related injuries in bananas, helping preserve their quality during storage.

Zinc’s effects on colds
Zinc for prevention and treatment of the common cold: Summary of a Cochrane review.
We explored how zinc might help in treating and preventing the common cold. The study focused on zinc's effects, isolating it from other treatments to understand its true impact on cold symptoms. By doing this, the researchers aimed to clarify whether zinc could genuinely shorten the duration of a cold or alleviate its symptoms.
The findings were intriguing but showed that zinc might not yield significant benefits for everyone. While some individuals reported a slight reduction in cold symptoms, the evidence did not strongly support zinc as an effective treatment overall.
This means that, for those seeking relief from a nasty cold, zinc alone might not be the go-to solution we hoped it would be. It’s essential to consider this information when deciding on a cold treatment plan and to approach zinc with realistic expectations.

It's indispensable during winter. I struggled to find this particular form of zinc as it sells out rapidly. Thank you for keeping me healthy!

Zinc’s effects on colds
Zinc for prevention and treatment of the common cold: Summary of a Cochrane review.
We explored how zinc might help in treating and preventing the common cold. The study focused on zinc's effects, isolating it from other treatments to understand its true impact on cold symptoms. By doing this, the researchers aimed to clarify whether zinc could genuinely shorten the duration of a cold or alleviate its symptoms.
The findings were intriguing but showed that zinc might not yield significant benefits for everyone. While some individuals reported a slight reduction in cold symptoms, the evidence did not strongly support zinc as an effective treatment overall.
This means that, for those seeking relief from a nasty cold, zinc alone might not be the go-to solution we hoped it would be. It’s essential to consider this information when deciding on a cold treatment plan and to approach zinc with realistic expectations.

With numerous health issues such as primary immunodeficiency and dermatitis, I frequently need to use medicine, especially during winter when viruses are rampant. I prefer the chelated form of zinc, which has shown positive effects. The recent illness was milder and without complications, and my skin condition improved as well. Zinc helps make cold symptoms much more bearable and speeds recovery. However, it's vital to note the compatibility of zinc with other supplements. I truly recommend this manufacturer.

Excellent lollipops! They contain nearly 20 mg of zinc. My husband switched to two daily when cold symptoms appeared and combined it with 6 pills of vitamin D and 2000 mg of vitamin C. The following morning, he felt well again! Zinc deficiency can lead to various health issues, including immune system disorders and complications during pregnancy.

Inositol enhances rapeseed cold tolerance
Inositol Improves Cold Tolerance Through Inhibiting and Increasing Ca Influx in Rapeseed ( L.).
We explored the impact of inositol on cold stress in rapeseed, an essential oilseed crop affected by low temperatures. Notably, we found that inositol plays a significant role in enhancing cold tolerance in these plants by boosting calcium ion (Ca) influx.
Our study involved identifying various genes associated with inositol and analyzing their expression under cold conditions. Interestingly, inositol appeared to inhibit the expression of calcineurin B-like genes, which are involved in regulating calcium flow, suggesting a unique pathway through which inositol aids in cold resilience.
Additionally, when we overexpressed certain genes linked to calcium flux, we noted a stronger response to cold stress, further emphasizing the importance of the inositol-Ca pathway in facilitating cold tolerance in rapeseed. These findings not only deepen our understanding of how rapeseed copes with cold conditions but also present a potential strategy for enhancing crop resilience in the face of climate challenges.

Nattokinase aids cold recovery
A single dose of oral nattokinase accelerates skin temperature recovery after cold water immersion: A double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study.
We conducted a study to explore how a single dose of nattokinase (NK) influences recovery of skin temperature after exposure to cold water. This double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study involved nine healthy men who took either NK or a placebo before submerging their hands in ice-cold water at 10 °C for one minute.
Our findings showed that participants who took NK experienced a quicker recovery of skin temperature in their middle finger, palm, and back of the hand compared to those who took the placebo. Although cold exposure initially caused a significant drop in skin temperature, the NK appeared to accelerate the warming process afterward.
Interestingly, we did not observe any changes in heart rate, cardiac output, or sympathetic nervous activity as a result of taking NK. This is noteworthy because it suggests that while NK may help with temperature recovery, it does not impact certain cardiovascular responses typically associated with cold exposure.
Overall, our study highlights the potential benefits of nattokinase, especially for individuals who are more sensitive to cold, such as women and the elderly. It could offer a new avenue for managing cold sensitivity and minimizing excessive vasoconstriction during chilly conditions.

I bought this for my husband's cold left foot, which he couldn't feel for years. Within 24 hours of taking it, he regained feeling, and it felt warm again! He had thought he would suffer forever. Now, he’s active and claims he has his life back—his hands are warm too. He takes one capsule in the morning and another before dinner. We ordered multiple bottles to keep this up. We're incredibly grateful for this product!

I tried this combined drug after taking Serrapeptase separately for five months. After a month of using it, I feel fantastic. I previously had chronic headaches and allergies, but most importantly, I experienced no symptoms of a cold. The combination of this drug with other medications and proper nutrition appears to have improved my metabolism, reducing swelling and stabilising my weight. I will continue taking it regularly.

I've battled chronic rhinitis since childhood and decided to try serrapeptase. I'm currently using a dosage of 120,000 units, taking two tablets a day. Throughout nearly four months, I've not been sick at all! Previously, I was perennially ill with colds, but now I've noticed only two one-day runny noses that resolved independently. It's quite miraculous, although I have gained weight during this period, despite minimal dietary changes.

Effectiveness of Vitamin C on Colds
Vitamin C for the common cold and pneumonia.
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.

At the first sign of a cold or SARS, I take 3-4 capsules per day. I start feeling normal within 2-3 days. In winter and during respiratory disease season, vitamin C is crucial for health. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

Effectiveness of Vitamin C on Colds
Vitamin C for the common cold and pneumonia.
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.

Vitamin C during the cold season is essential! Unfortunately, you need to consume a lot of tangerines and oranges to achieve the required dose, increasing the risk of citrus allergies. I purchase numerous products from this brand, and I am pleased with this vitamin C—my second purchase. With 250 tablets per jar, it’s quite affordable and lasting. Rosehip in the ingredients also serves as an excellent antioxidant. We take one tablet daily and increase to two during illness; they really do help prevent colds. Highly recommend!

For a year now, my husband and I have been taking these vitamins. Our immunity and mood remain stable. When the first signs of a cold appear, we each take two pills, and after a few hours, everything clears up! We’ve tried it on friends, and they recovered just as quickly. We definitely recommend it.

I'm buying for my one and a half-year-old daughter, as the adult dosage had little effect. I give her one teaspoon a day during cold spells, and it lasts for a month without any issues. I’ve started administering it again at the first signs of sneezing or coughing, a couple of times daily, and the cold doesn't escalate. The liquid is well absorbed. Personally, I prefer the orange flavour, while my daughter enjoys both the orange and tangerine tastes.

Take it, you won't regret it! This excellent quality vitamin has a sustained release, with half absorbed immediately and half entering the body over 12 hours. One capsule per day is standard, but during colds, you can take up to six capsules daily for the first few days to enhance immunity. Symptoms improve quickly, and I felt better by the second day without severe illness. It’s non-allergenic, which is a relief for someone like me who previously reacted to Russian vitamin C. This option is also significantly cheaper than what’s available locally. Please click "thumb up" if you find this useful!

A fantastic choice for vitamin C. I typically purchase various types, but I particularly favour those with bioflavonoids. Not all ascorbic acid is effective, yet this one with bioquercetin clearly shows results. If I feel a cold coming on, taking a loading dose of this vitamin C can halt the onset of illness. My herpes clears up within a day. The tablets are small and easy to split. If you appreciate reviews or enjoy contributing to others, you can earn rewards for new purchases on iHerb, providing extra savings.

Vitamin E mitigates respiratory damage
A molecular toxicological study to explore potential health risks associated with ultrafine particle exposure in cold and humid indoor environments.
We investigated how exposure to ultrafine particles (UFPs) in cold and humid environments impacts respiratory health. Using a controlled study with male Balb/c mice, we found that exposure to carbon black nanoparticles worsened lung function and increased inflammation and oxidative stress.
Notably, the combination of UFPs and cold-humid conditions intensified these adverse effects. However, when we administered Vitamin E, it helped reduce these harmful impacts. This suggests that Vitamin E could be a potential protector against indoor air pollutants, offering insights for healthier living spaces.

We investigated whether a daily vitamin C supplement could reduce the risk of catching colds. Over two months, 168 people took either the supplement or a placebo. Results showed that those taking vitamin C experienced significantly fewer colds and shorter durations of severe symptoms compared to the placebo group.
This supplement was well-tolerated with minimal side effects, and participants were notably satisfied with it. Overall, it seems that vitamin C may not only help prevent colds but also assist in faster recovery from them.

Effectiveness of Vitamin C on Colds
Vitamin C for the common cold and pneumonia.
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.

I started taking vitamin C regularly after dealing with herpes outbreaks for three years. Despite taking various medications, they only provided temporary relief. However, upon my pharmacist's advice, I tried vitamin C with zinc, and it worked wonders! For three years, I have had no herpes outbreaks. Not only that, but it's become an essential remedy at the first sign of a cold for my whole family. We follow a specific dose, and remarkably, my children have never missed school in 2 years, only experiencing minor colds or sore throats. My husband, who previously relied on antibiotics for tonsillitis, has also stopped needing them. I additionally take vitamin C to boost my vascular health, and it has significantly improved my bruising.

Vitamin A's key role in thermogenesis
Intact vitamin A transport is critical for cold-mediated adipose tissue browning and thermogenesis.
We explored how vitamin A affects our body’s response to cold, specifically looking at its role in transforming white fat into brown fat, a process known as browning. This transformation is significant, as it can help reduce obesity and improve metabolic health.
In our investigation, we conducted cold exposure studies involving both mice and humans. We observed that exposure to cold led to an increase in circulating vitamin A, also known as retinol, and its transporter protein, Rbp. However, in mice lacking this protein, we found that their ability to adapt to the cold and promote thermogenesis—essentially, generating heat through fat—was severely compromised.
Interestingly, we also noted that stimulating human fat cells with retinol heightened the expression of genes associated with thermogenesis and boosted mitochondrial activity, which is vital for burning fat. In humans, the rise in vitamin A during cold exposure hinted at improved fat utilization.
Overall, our findings revealed that not only are vitamin A levels responsive to cold, but effective transportation of this vitamin is crucial for cold-induced fat browning and the body's ability to generate heat.

Inositol enhances rapeseed cold tolerance
Inositol Improves Cold Tolerance Through Inhibiting and Increasing Ca Influx in Rapeseed ( L.).
We explored the impact of inositol on cold stress in rapeseed, an essential oilseed crop affected by low temperatures. Notably, we found that inositol plays a significant role in enhancing cold tolerance in these plants by boosting calcium ion (Ca) influx.
Our study involved identifying various genes associated with inositol and analyzing their expression under cold conditions. Interestingly, inositol appeared to inhibit the expression of calcineurin B-like genes, which are involved in regulating calcium flow, suggesting a unique pathway through which inositol aids in cold resilience.
Additionally, when we overexpressed certain genes linked to calcium flux, we noted a stronger response to cold stress, further emphasizing the importance of the inositol-Ca pathway in facilitating cold tolerance in rapeseed. These findings not only deepen our understanding of how rapeseed copes with cold conditions but also present a potential strategy for enhancing crop resilience in the face of climate challenges.

Quercetin boosts grape cold resistance
VvbZIP22 regulates quercetin synthesis to enhances cold resistance in grape.
We observed that quercetin, a powerful antioxidant, plays a significant role in helping grapes withstand cold temperatures. In our study, we found that grapes exposed to low temperatures accumulate more quercetin, which in turn enhances their cold resistance.
By applying exogenous quercetin, we noted a marked improvement in the grapes' ability to endure low-temperature stress. Our research revealed that a key gene, VvFLS1, responsible for quercetin synthesis is upregulated when grapes experience cold conditions.
We also discovered that VvbZIP22, a protein that binds to the VvFLS1 promoter, is crucial for mediating this process. When we overexpressed VvbZIP22 in grapes, it resulted in higher levels of quercetin and improved cold resistance, further confirming its pivotal role in the plant's adaptation to harsh environments.
Through these findings, we highlighted the importance of quercetin in enhancing grape survival during cold spells, showcasing a vital link between plant biology and climate resilience.

Folate improves cold agglutinin anemia
Coexistence of Cold Agglutinin and Cryoglobulin in a Patient With Severe Anemia Following COVID-19 Infection.
We explored the intriguing case of a patient battling severe anemia after a COVID-19 infection. This patient exhibited both cold agglutinin and cryoglobulin, revealing some interesting findings when we examined their direct antiglobulin test results.
We noted that the test showed C3d positivity while being immunoglobulin G negative, indicating that the patient did not have evident hemolytic anemia or thrombosis. Interestingly, there was no clinically significant IgM monoclonal gammopathy reported, which suggests that the situation might not be as dire as it seems at first glance.
Treatment involved folic acid supplementation, which led to a noticeable improvement in the patient's anemia. Alongside this, we observed a decrease in the cold agglutination titer, and the direct antiglobulin test turned negative, hinting that folate may play a role in managing cold agglutinin-related issues, though it’s essential to view this within the broader context of other influences.
Despite the persistent cryoglobulinemia, the patient did not experience thrombosis or any significant complications. This case prompts us to carefully consider the use of immunosuppressive therapies for cold-related hematologic disorders following COVID-19, particularly as many factors may be at play in affecting patient outcomes.

Vitamin C improves cold tolerance
Application of Exogenous Ascorbic Acid Enhances Cold Tolerance in Tomato Seedlings through Molecular and Physiological Responses.
We explored the effects of ascorbic acid, commonly known as vitamin C, on cold tolerance in tomato seedlings. In our study, we discovered that applying vitamin C significantly boosts the seedlings' ability to handle cold stress.
By enhancing the antioxidant defense system, vitamin C treatment increased the enzyme activity in the seedlings' leaves. Additionally, it raised levels of important compounds such as proline, sugar, and abscisic acid, all of which play crucial roles in plant stress responses.
Our observations showed that vitamin C also protects the photosynthesis system of tomato seedlings. This implies that it helps maintain chlorophyll function, which is critical for the plant's overall health, especially under cold conditions.
Moreover, we found that vitamin C treatments led to increased expression of genes linked to antioxidant enzymes and cold response mechanisms. Overall, our findings suggest that exogenous vitamin C is a beneficial approach to improve cold tolerance in tomatoes and may provide helpful insights for farmers looking to cultivate hardier varieties during colder months.

Wheat germ oil is fantastic; this is my second purchase. It's incredibly beneficial, as I take it with pleasure. After starting, my immunity improved, and my metabolism returned to normal. It’s packed with vitamins and minerals, making me feel energised and less hungry. I apply it to my skin, and it nourishes and moisturises effectively. My children also take it; their illnesses seem milder and pass quickly. I prefer natural vitamins and frequently alternate oils. When I ran out, I felt a decline in energy and started to gain weight, but I was thrilled to have ordered it again, opting for two bottles this time. I also purchased cod liver oil to alternate with it. If you take it with the intention of benefitting, it certainly delivers.

Vitamin E mitigates respiratory damage
A molecular toxicological study to explore potential health risks associated with ultrafine particle exposure in cold and humid indoor environments.
We investigated how exposure to ultrafine particles (UFPs) in cold and humid environments impacts respiratory health. Using a controlled study with male Balb/c mice, we found that exposure to carbon black nanoparticles worsened lung function and increased inflammation and oxidative stress.
Notably, the combination of UFPs and cold-humid conditions intensified these adverse effects. However, when we administered Vitamin E, it helped reduce these harmful impacts. This suggests that Vitamin E could be a potential protector against indoor air pollutants, offering insights for healthier living spaces.

I find this selenium supplement effective. When I feel the onset of a cold, I take it alongside zinc and vitamins C and D in higher doses, and by morning, I already feel well. Iodine needs selenium as a cofactor, which is beneficial for overall health.

DHA enhances calf growth, reduces inflammation
Effects of fat source in calf starter on growth performance, blood fatty acid profiles, and inflammatory markers during cold season.
We investigated how different fat sources in calf starter diets influence growth, health, and inflammation, particularly during cold weather. Our study involved 48 Holstein calves, divided into four diet groups: one without added fat, one with calcium-salts of soybean oil (Ca-SBO), another with calcium-salts of fish oil (Ca-FO), and a mix of both.
We found that calves fed the Ca-FO diet, which contains DHA and other beneficial fats, had significantly better growth performance and higher final body weights compared to the other groups. In fact, these calves showed enhanced feed efficiency and increased average daily gains, suggesting that DHA, often found in fish oils, plays a crucial role in improving growth in challenging cold conditions.
Furthermore, the calves on the Ca-FO diet exhibited lower levels of inflammatory markers compared to their counterparts, which indicates a potential of DHA in reducing inflammation, a common issue in cold environments. In contrast, the Ca-SBO group had higher levels of certain fats and inflammation markers, pointing to the advantages of including DHA in calf diets during cold seasons.
Overall, our findings suggest that enriching calf diets with DHA not only supports better growth in cold climates but also helps in managing inflammation.

We take omega as a family. For adults, we specifically opt for this company's omega. The dosage is good, as it is convenient to take one capsule daily. Previously, we frequently fell ill, but since we started taking omega and D3, we have forgotten what a cold is, or we only experience it mildly. One jar lasts us three months. The price and quality match well.

Effectiveness of Vitamin C on Colds
Vitamin C for the common cold and pneumonia.
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.

Elderberry reduces cold duration
Elderberry Supplementation Reduces Cold Duration and Symptoms in Air-Travellers: A Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial.
We explored whether elderberry could help reduce the duration and severity of colds for economy class passengers traveling internationally. In a well-structured randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 312 participants, we looked at how a standardized elderberry extract affected respiratory health during air travel.
Participants tracked their cold episodes, duration, and symptoms in daily diaries, using a scoring method to quantify their experiences. They also completed surveys about their upper respiratory symptoms and quality of life at different points: before traveling and four days post-travel.
While we noted that the group taking the placebo experienced more cold episodes, the difference wasn't statistically significant. However, those taking elderberry had a significantly shorter duration of cold days and a lower average symptom score overall, suggesting that elderberry may significantly lessen the impact of colds during air travel.
Further research is essential to validate our findings and to better understand the broader health benefits of elderberry, both physical and mental.

My entire family takes elderberry as preventive care and when unwell. The syrup is given to my child, whilst I take the capsules. It has a sweet and sour taste. As soon as I start taking elderberry, all initial signs of a cold vanish immediately. Although the illness persists, it does not progress further. Elderberry is a staple in my first aid kit, and since it became part of our household, my child has fallen ill less frequently. I highly recommend this remedy as it is far more beneficial for the body since it is natural and plant-based.

Vitamin D3 aids cold recovery
Intake of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 Reduces Duration and Severity of Upper Respiratory Tract Infection: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Comparison Study.
We explored how 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD), a form of vitamin D, influences upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), commonly known as colds. In a carefully designed clinical study, we followed 428 participants aged 45 to 74 over a 16-week period. They were randomly assigned to receive either 10 μg of 25OHD daily or a placebo, all while maintaining a double-blind setup to ensure accurate results.
Our findings revealed that those who took 25OHD had reduced duration and severity of their cold symptoms. Participants reported improvements in their overall quality of life during the bouts of URTI. By tracking the health of the participants through surveys designed to measure cold symptoms, we gathered valuable data that indicates vitamin D3 could play a helpful role in managing colds.
This suggests that incorporating vitamin D3 into our diets may be beneficial when we catch a cold, potentially leading to a quicker recovery. It’s a promising avenue for anyone looking to ease the discomfort and duration of these frustrating infections.

Vitamin D reduces cold severity
Influence of Vitamin D Supplementation by Simulated Sunlight or Oral D3 on Respiratory Infection during Military Training.
We explored the connection between vitamin D levels and upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) among military recruits during their training. This observation spanned across different seasons and included over 1,600 recruits. Our aim was to understand how achieving sufficient vitamin D levels could potentially impact the frequency and severity of colds among physically active individuals.
In an additional phase of the research, we conducted a randomized controlled trial with 250 male recruits. They received either a placebo, simulated sunlight exposure, or oral vitamin D3 supplements during winter. This comparison allowed us to see if these methods effectively increased vitamin D levels to a sufficient status of 25(OH)D at 50 nmol/L or higher.
Notably, our findings showed that only 21% of recruits had adequate vitamin D during winter, yet those who did were 40% less likely to suffer from URTIs. Furthermore, both vitamin D supplementation strategies similarly helped nearly all participants achieve sufficient levels. Vitamin D supplementation notably reduced the severity of URTI symptoms by 15% and the number of days with URTIs by 36% compared to placebo.
While the supplementation strategies did not significantly alter other immune factors, such as salivary secretory immunoglobulin A, the overall reduction in respiratory infections indicates a beneficial effect of maintaining vitamin D sufficiency during military training.

Folate improves cold agglutinin anemia
Coexistence of Cold Agglutinin and Cryoglobulin in a Patient With Severe Anemia Following COVID-19 Infection.
We explored the intriguing case of a patient battling severe anemia after a COVID-19 infection. This patient exhibited both cold agglutinin and cryoglobulin, revealing some interesting findings when we examined their direct antiglobulin test results.
We noted that the test showed C3d positivity while being immunoglobulin G negative, indicating that the patient did not have evident hemolytic anemia or thrombosis. Interestingly, there was no clinically significant IgM monoclonal gammopathy reported, which suggests that the situation might not be as dire as it seems at first glance.
Treatment involved folic acid supplementation, which led to a noticeable improvement in the patient's anemia. Alongside this, we observed a decrease in the cold agglutination titer, and the direct antiglobulin test turned negative, hinting that folate may play a role in managing cold agglutinin-related issues, though it’s essential to view this within the broader context of other influences.
Despite the persistent cryoglobulinemia, the patient did not experience thrombosis or any significant complications. This case prompts us to carefully consider the use of immunosuppressive therapies for cold-related hematologic disorders following COVID-19, particularly as many factors may be at play in affecting patient outcomes.

Vitamin B12 shows cold pain relief
The effects of vitamin B12 and diclofenac and their combination on cold and mechanical allodynia in a neuropathic pain model in rats.
We explored the potential effects of vitamin B12 on cold sensitivity in a study using rats with induced neuropathic pain. The focus was to see whether vitamin B12, both alone and in combination with the pain reliever diclofenac, could alleviate cold and mechanical allodynia—a condition where non-painful stimuli are perceived as painful.
In our approach, we administered vitamin B12 in varying doses over ten consecutive days following nerve injury. What we discovered was quite telling. Higher doses of vitamin B12 (50, 100, and 200 µg kg(-1)) led to a reduction in cold sensitivity. However, when using a lower, subanalgesic dose (25 µg kg(-1)), vitamin B12 did not significantly impact pain responses when paired with low doses of diclofenac.
As we adjusted the vitamin B12 dosage to a more effective level (100 µg kg(-1)), we noticed an improvement in pain relief compared to diclofenac alone. These findings suggest that vitamin B12 could have a positive effect on alleviating cold-related pain in neuropathic conditions, especially when used at appropriate doses.

After taking one capsule daily, the pain in my neck and shoulder blades eased within a month, and the numbness in my fingers vanished. Most notably, the feeling of cold also disappeared! I’m gradually returning to my pre-illness condition, and I plan to continue this treatment.

Vitamin B12 shows cold pain relief
The effects of vitamin B12 and diclofenac and their combination on cold and mechanical allodynia in a neuropathic pain model in rats.
We explored the potential effects of vitamin B12 on cold sensitivity in a study using rats with induced neuropathic pain. The focus was to see whether vitamin B12, both alone and in combination with the pain reliever diclofenac, could alleviate cold and mechanical allodynia—a condition where non-painful stimuli are perceived as painful.
In our approach, we administered vitamin B12 in varying doses over ten consecutive days following nerve injury. What we discovered was quite telling. Higher doses of vitamin B12 (50, 100, and 200 µg kg(-1)) led to a reduction in cold sensitivity. However, when using a lower, subanalgesic dose (25 µg kg(-1)), vitamin B12 did not significantly impact pain responses when paired with low doses of diclofenac.
As we adjusted the vitamin B12 dosage to a more effective level (100 µg kg(-1)), we noticed an improvement in pain relief compared to diclofenac alone. These findings suggest that vitamin B12 could have a positive effect on alleviating cold-related pain in neuropathic conditions, especially when used at appropriate doses.

After surgery for neck stenosis, my hands and feet became numb and easily turned cold. However, after taking two tablets of Vitamin B12 1000mc daily, my condition began to improve within two to three days. I want to continue taking this.

Vitamin D reduces cold severity
Influence of Vitamin D Supplementation by Simulated Sunlight or Oral D3 on Respiratory Infection during Military Training.
We explored the connection between vitamin D levels and upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) among military recruits during their training. This observation spanned across different seasons and included over 1,600 recruits. Our aim was to understand how achieving sufficient vitamin D levels could potentially impact the frequency and severity of colds among physically active individuals.
In an additional phase of the research, we conducted a randomized controlled trial with 250 male recruits. They received either a placebo, simulated sunlight exposure, or oral vitamin D3 supplements during winter. This comparison allowed us to see if these methods effectively increased vitamin D levels to a sufficient status of 25(OH)D at 50 nmol/L or higher.
Notably, our findings showed that only 21% of recruits had adequate vitamin D during winter, yet those who did were 40% less likely to suffer from URTIs. Furthermore, both vitamin D supplementation strategies similarly helped nearly all participants achieve sufficient levels. Vitamin D supplementation notably reduced the severity of URTI symptoms by 15% and the number of days with URTIs by 36% compared to placebo.
While the supplementation strategies did not significantly alter other immune factors, such as salivary secretory immunoglobulin A, the overall reduction in respiratory infections indicates a beneficial effect of maintaining vitamin D sufficiency during military training.

This calcium has been a game-changer for my sensitive tooth enamel. For years, I found that various toothpastes had no effect. Following local reviews, I chose this specific product, and I'm delighted with the outcome; it lessened my reaction to cold, hot, and sour foods by the third day! I've stocked up on it and feel incredibly satisfied. I've also noticed improvements in my restless legs syndrome after taking two capsules daily.

A surgeon recommended this calcium after I broke my leg, and it has worked wonders. My bones healed within a month, and I'm no longer sensitive to hot or cold food. The merits are clear! The packaging is convenient, and I've trusted this brand for a long time. It's an excellent supplement, best used in a course as advised by my doctor.

Acetyl-L-carnitine's mixed effectiveness
Acetyl-L-carnitine effect on pituitary and plasma beta-endorphin responsiveness to different chronic intermittent stressors.
We examined how acetyl-L-carnitine affects stress responses in rats exposed to cold swimming. Over ten days, we compared the effects of two stress types and found that cold-swimming significantly increased beta-endorphin levels in both the pituitary and plasma. Notably, acetyl-L-carnitine treatment appeared to offset these changes induced by cold stress. However, it’s essential to highlight that while there were improvements observed with acetyl-L-carnitine, the overall effectiveness for treating cold-related symptoms remains uncertain based on these findings.

Recommend! The order was delivered promptly. I have been taking VITAMIN D3 from SOLGAR for a long time. 5000 IU is a very convenient dosage for me (240 capsules). The capsules are tasteless and easy to swallow. Vitamin D3 effectively supports the immune system—I've stopped falling ill with colds. It helps maintain a healthy skeletal system due to calcium absorption. I am very pleased.

After regularly taking vitamin D3, I’ve noticed that both my child and I rarely catch a cold. My daughter used to attend kindergarten without a break from October to February, but now, she’s far healthier. I generally feel more cheerful as well. When I stop taking vitamin D3, I often experience discomfort in my back, but as soon as I resume, the pain disappears almost immediately. This improvement truly delights me.

I have been taking Vitamin D supplements for the past few months, and I cannot express how much of a difference it has made to my overall well-being. Living in a region with long winters and limited sunlight, I often felt fatigued. After consulting with my doctor, I decided to give Vitamin D a try. Within weeks, I noticed a significant boost in my energy levels and mood. My immune system seems stronger; I’ve avoided colds that typically would have knocked me out during the season! I appreciate the quality of this brand—it's non-GMO, soy-free, and carefully formulated.

This observation spanned across different seasons and included over 1,600 recruits. Our aim was to understand how achieving sufficient vitamin D levels could potentially impact the frequency and severity of colds among physically active individuals.
In an additional phase of the research, we conducted a randomized controlled trial with 250 male recruits. They received either a placebo, simulated sunlight exposure, or oral vitamin D3 supplements during winter. This comparison allowed us to see if these methods effectively increased vitamin D levels to a sufficient status of 25(OH)D at 50 nmol/L or higher.
Notably, our findings showed that only 21% of recruits had adequate vitamin D during winter, yet those who did were 40% less likely to suffer from URTIs. Furthermore, both vitamin D supplementation strategies similarly helped nearly all participants achieve sufficient levels. Vitamin D supplementation notably reduced the severity of URTI symptoms by 15% and the number of days with URTIs by 36% compared to placebo.
While the supplementation strategies did not significantly alter other immune factors, such as salivary secretory immunoglobulin A, the overall reduction in respiratory infections indicates a beneficial effect of maintaining vitamin D sufficiency during military training.
Preventing illness
Most Useful Review
For several years, vitamin D has been our preferred supplement during the off-season. Adults take courses of 5000 IU, whilst children take 2000 IU. We can hardly remember the last time we suffered from colds, and our family has entirely avoided the well-known illness that is often discussed. All good health! Vitamin D is our favourite!

Shortens duration of summer colds
Effects of lactoferrin on infectious diseases in Japanese summer: A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial.
We explored how lactoferrin (LF) affects infectious diseases, including summer colds, through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Healthy adults received either a placebo or 200 mg or 600 mg of LF for 12 weeks.
While the prevalence of illnesses didn't change significantly, we found that those taking LF experienced a shorter duration of infections. In fact, the 600 mg group had a notably reduced duration of summer colds compared to the placebo group.
Overall, lactoferrin seems beneficial in hastening recovery from cold symptoms during summer.

Elderberry reduces cold duration
Elderberry Supplementation Reduces Cold Duration and Symptoms in Air-Travellers: A Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial.
We explored whether elderberry could help reduce the duration and severity of colds for economy class passengers traveling internationally. In a well-structured randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 312 participants, we looked at how a standardized elderberry extract affected respiratory health during air travel.
Participants tracked their cold episodes, duration, and symptoms in daily diaries, using a scoring method to quantify their experiences. They also completed surveys about their upper respiratory symptoms and quality of life at different points: before traveling and four days post-travel.
While we noted that the group taking the placebo experienced more cold episodes, the difference wasn't statistically significant. However, those taking elderberry had a significantly shorter duration of cold days and a lower average symptom score overall, suggesting that elderberry may significantly lessen the impact of colds during air travel.
Further research is essential to validate our findings and to better understand the broader health benefits of elderberry, both physical and mental.

Iron improves cold tolerance
Dihydroporphyrin iron (III) enhances low temperature tolerance by increasing carbon and nitrogen metabolism in .
We investigated how dihydroporphyrin iron (DH-Fe) acts as a plant growth regulator, particularly in enhancing cold tolerance. Our research focused on plants that are usually sensitive to low temperatures, finding that DH-Fe plays a vital role in helping these plants cope with cold stress by using different concentrations of this treatment.
Through our study, we applied varying levels of DH-Fe to see how it impacts carbon and nitrogen metabolism, as well as oxidative stress responses, when plants were exposed to low temperatures. Notably, we observed that DH-Fe significantly reduces oxidative stress and other harmful effects associated with cold exposure. For instance, it reduced certain sugars while simultaneously boosting the activity of enzymes crucial for sugar breakdown and nitrogen assimilation.
Among the various findings, we noted that a concentration of 20 μg·L of DH-Fe was particularly effective, improving the overall health and resilience of the plants against low temperatures. This suggests that by applying the right amount of iron, we can potentially mitigate the negative effects of cold weather on sensitive plant species, providing a fresh perspective on how to enhance cold tolerance through nutrient management.
Overall, our findings shine a light on how incorporating iron into agricultural practices might be a practical strategy for improving plant resilience to cold stress.

Astragalus-root shows mixed effects
Effects of Chinese herbal medicine and cold exposure on plasma glucose, leucine and energy metabolism in sheep.
We conducted an experiment to evaluate the effects of a traditional Chinese herbal medicine mixture, including astragalus-root, when sheep were exposed to cold temperatures. The study involved feeding four sheep either a mixed hay diet or hay supplemented with 2% of the herbal mix over two periods, during which they experienced a controlled cold exposure for five days.
While we observed some benefits of the herbal treatment, specifically regarding nitrogen balance and energy metabolism, the results showed that the metabolism of plasma leucine—important for protein synthesis—remained unchanged in cold conditions. Although plasma glucose and energy metabolism improved with both the herbal diet and cold exposure, the herbal mixture alone did not significantly enhance the sheep's ability to cope with cold stress in terms of leucine metabolism.
Overall, while astragalus-root mixed with other herbs seems beneficial for certain metabolic processes, it did not provide clear advantages in terms of cold adaptation for the sheep in our study.

I highly recommend these vitamins for joints. I suffered from a cold leg for a prolonged period, which led to knee pain. Doctors prescribed chondroprotectors, but they did nothing and even worsened my condition. However, an athlete suggested a regimen that worked wonders. My knee pain stopped entirely, and I feel great. Although doctors diagnosed me with arthritis and arthrosis, I suspect they were mistaken.

After ordering these capsules, I didn't take any pharmacy pills. The cold passed in 2-3 days. It's important to consume 2 capsules as soon as I feel unwell, typically starting with nasal discomfort. Within 20 minutes, my nose clears up, yet it may flow again. I simply repeat the dosage. In 2-3 days, the cold vanishes. Note: avoid taking on an empty stomach as it may irritate. I’ve shared a large supply with family and colleagues and will order more for next winter.

Value for money! I have appreciated these antioxidants for a long time and take them throughout winter. I also add vitamin C from here. Colds have avoided my family for years because we take 1-2 tablets daily. Recently, I purchased a second jar. The composition is not just good, it's EXCELLENT, as it's suitable for daily use. This product is a real godsend for me - great value! I highly recommend it; it’s a profitable purchase and most importantly, the dietary supplement works 100%.

An excellent choice for the cold season and mild Covid-19 prevention! These capsules contain essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, C, E, calcium, zinc, and selenium, which help the immune system fight off viruses. I bought it for myself and as gifts for family, ensuring their health. One jar lasts nearly the entire cold season, and I’ll definitely buy more due to its cost-effectiveness.

Great complex! I have been taking these wonderful vitamins for about 1.5 years, and the effect is definitely noticeable! During autumn/winter, fatigue, despondency, and depression are much less. The lack of sleep is not as tormenting, and unequivocally, it works! My hair falls out significantly less, and it has a clear positive impact on my nails, which no longer break or peel. My skin is in perfect condition this winter, unlike previous years. Those problems are now gone! My mother, sister, and mother-in-law also take these vitamins, and I recommend them to everyone wanting to improve their health, skin, hair, and nails. They are an excellent help during periods of viruses and colds - I've tested this on myself and loved ones!

For immunity - irreplaceable! Delicious and effective supplement for all ages! For five years, my family has supported our immunity with syrup or gummies during seasonal colds. While we have experienced illness, our colds have been milder and shorter. Often, when children catch a cold, we quickly use Elder + ECHINACEA and they recover in three days! I highly recommend this for your first aid kit! It is certainly better than any pharmacy vitamins and other immune drugs! Natural is best! Maintain your health properly 🙏🏽 Photos of my favourites included! If my review was helpful, I’d be very grateful 👍🏽

This is the best way to prevent colds. I bought it in the US previously, and it worked wonders. It boosts the body's immunity with a high vitamin C and zinc content.

Excellent! I increased my dosage from 2000 to 10,000. Previously, winter exposure would lead to skin issues, but since increasing the dosage, I haven’t encountered that discomfort.

Even while my family caught Covid, I remained in good health (without vaccination). My mother has also noted fewer colds since she started taking it.

Everyone ought to try this! I adore the Amazing Grass green superfood line. My kids and I enjoy the berry flavour, and I’ve heard that superfoods might aid in combating COVID.

Effective cold prevention
Most Useful Review
Works brilliantly! I'm an advocate for taking fish oil throughout the year, especially in cold weather. Omega-3 is perfect for meeting the body's need for polyunsaturated fatty acids. It has a long shelf life and comes in a great jar for storage at a reasonable price. Proper dosage is essential; take it with fatty foods and monitor how you feel. By following the guidelines, side effects are avoidable, and positive results are noticeable by the end of the course. I have personally experienced significant improvements in my hair health. I highly recommend it.

A must-have for everyone! I purchase a large bottle for my family, particularly this brand due to its excellent price and concentration. There’s no fishy taste or burps, even for my sensitive stomach. My hair, skin, and nails have improved remarkably, and I believe just one pill a day suffices. I also take it with other supplements to enhance immunity and avoid viruses. Thanks to this, my family and I have not had any colds or viruses, likely due to this fantastic immunity booster.

It’s hard to ascertain its effect on heart health as I have no issues there. However, this omega definitely supports skin, nails, and hair during the cold season.

I adhered to the recommended dosage of two capsules daily with meals, and so far, I’m very satisfied with Natrol’s omega supplements. Highly recommended!

This supplement is my all-time favourite; I can't get through winter without it. When it gets colder, my old injuries, like ruptured tendons, would usually cause pain.

I appreciate the change in my skin; the wrinkles are not entirely smoothed out, yet it feels smooth and even. Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome.

Alleviates cold symptoms
Most Useful Review

Taking Vitamin B5 has significantly helped my adrenal glands, providing a calming influence during cortisol surges. After a couple of weeks of evening intake, I fell asleep faster. I found it effective in reducing the "aching" sensation in my kidney area during the cold season and alleviating the general feeling of cold hands and feet. My overall sense of well-being improved too. I recommend taking it with or after an evening meal since cortisol secretion peaks at night. Pantothenic acid is essential during stress and physical exertion for cellular recovery and health. It’s affordable, often discounted. If this post has been informative, please support it!

My salvation during the cold season. I stock up on elderberries each autumn and consume them until spring for the third consecutive year.

The smell is light and acceptable. He began using it today, and I will return to update you on my experience, but I was delayed due to cleaning with thyme oil and probiotics. Yesterday, I tried my first pill when I had a cold and a runny nose. I swear I slept without feeling anything, and my nose cleared up. This is the first time I’ve slept without hearing the noise from the street. I will share the results soon. Please like if my comment helps you.

Moisturises in cold
Most Useful Review
This product is ideal for combined to oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin, being free from harmful ingredients. Initially, I had reservations, but it has proven to be of excellent quality. I follow the recommended usage frequency on the packaging. The clean ingredients make it suitable for all ages. I've noticed benefits after just one day's use; it has a smooth texture that moisturises straight away, particularly during the cold and dry season, with a pleasantly mild scent. Gentle cleansing even works for mascara.

It should definitely be in every first aid kit.

An essential thing to have on hand at all times! Every time I’ve used echinacea at the earliest symptoms of a cold, I’ve avoided getting sick without exception. The key is to start using it right at the onset; missing that window won’t yield results. I follow the intense dosage on the bottle. This is my favourite brand, always fresh and incredibly effective.

It was effective for my cold with runny nose and sneezing! After drinking a few glasses of water and resting, the next morning, the sneezing and runny nose stopped. I could return to work without time off. Normally, such symptoms last about a week, but I managed with just a mild nasal voice remaining. The effects of echinacea are astonishing!

I'd be in trouble without this. In summer, when it is warm, I often wear light clothing. When I wear trousers, I don't experience any cystitis symptoms, but in a skirt, I feel cold, even if it's hot outside, which triggers cystitis-like symptoms. In such instances, taking two tablets immediately alleviates my condition.

THE BEST VITAMINS! NOW ALWAYS WITH ME I don't have a specific deficiency in B vitamins, but I consume these twice a year (spring, autumn) and notice distinct changes! 1) Skin, hair, nails - all thanks to biotin! 2) Improved sleep and recovery. I am a night owl; waking me is quite a task. However, since taking this vitamin, managing my mornings has become considerably easier! 3) I suffer from chronic dermatitis. While on this vitamin, my spots became significantly smaller, disappearing entirely, only to return 4-5 months after stopping. 4) I have fallen ill with colds less often, which used to be about six times a year. With this formula, I limit it to 1-2 times a year :) I wholeheartedly recommend it!

I am delighted! This miracle water has worked wonders! I used it calmly with my two children. The first had 4 packs, while the second consumed 7 bottles. It's convenient to use—my little ones see the pipette and immediately open their mouths, knowing it will help. In winter, I took it with me, enabling us to stroll for 3 hours in the cold. Whenever he woke up every 40 minutes, I'd administer it, and he would drift back off to sleep. Nights have become calmer, and evenings have improved too! I am truly grateful for this water! Thank you very much for your response!

As a mother of three, I can say that every one of my children had colic. However, with the third, I discovered this miracle remedy that truly helps! It’s fantastic because: 1. There’s no need to administer it before every feeding. 2. It doesn’t have to be refrigerated, so I don’t give the baby a cold remedy. 3. One application per day suffices! My child sleeps well, passes gas without trouble, and has regular bowel movements, making mum calm and happy!

Calmed my skin
Most Useful Review

This oil has been a game changer for my oily skin and large pores. In just five days, I've seen a major difference. Not only does it calm my sebum production and dry patches from the cold weather, but it also improves the tone and texture of my skin! After applying it post-cleansing, I let it sit for hours, and now my face glows. Importantly, it does not cause breakouts and has significantly reduced my oiliness.

This oil is a fantastic source of vitamin E that many people lack. It effectively calms my sebum production and dry patches from cold weather while improving my skin's tone and texture. I have before and after photos from just two days, showing a major difference! The bottle is large enough to last at least two years. After washing my face with a gentle cleanser like baby wash, I apply a thin layer for five hours and wash it off before bedtime. My face now has a lovely glow, and this oil does NOT cause breakouts! This moisturiser also closes my pores, making me less oily than before!

Soothes stiffness

This product is effective for stiff shoulders and neck! With the colder weather lately, my chronic stiffness has worsened, prompting me to buy it on sale. The stylish solid bottle exceeded my expectations in size and seems durable. It warms more than massaging without any product. Using it in the bathroom was relaxing due to its pleasant aroma. Even a quick massage is effective, likely because a dry cloth works better than just using my hands.

Be sure to take rutin when you have a cold; it aids in removing toxins and viruses from the blood more quickly, leading to faster recovery. It should ideally be consumed alongside vitamin C.
Strengthened immune system
Most Useful Review
I have been taking this supplement for a short while and have already noticed an improvement in my immune system. When I caught a common virus in 2020, I recovered nearly unnoticed; I experienced only a slight stuffy nose and weakness for two days, which is much quicker than my usual colds. I doubled my usual dosage during this time, and noticed no residual weakness afterward. I'm pleased with the supplement's quality and ingredients.

Useful magic for hair and skin. There is no smell, and I prefer to use it for my curly hair instead of regular hair gel. My mother suffered from severe burns, and I applied it immediately after the burn; the effect lasted for three days and relieved her pain. I also use it as a daily moisturiser for my oily skin, and it provides sweet hydration with quick absorption. I keep it in the refrigerator for a cold application.

Initially skeptical, I found tea tree oil effective during a severe cold. I used it directly on my neck, feeling a pleasant coolness.

Most Useful Review

Echinacea's most notable property is its ability to strengthen the immune system, aiding the body against pathogens. Using the plant during a cold allows utilisation of its rich composition, enhancing resistance to microorganisms, including viruses. Research indicates that regular echinacea extract intake can reduce cold instances by 55%. I consume it from September to May, brewing a litre jar with one tablespoon daily for my family. For the children, I use more drops of ChildLife Echinacea, Natural Orange flavour. Just ensure there are no allergies.

Clear difference noted
Most Useful Review
10 people found this helpful
Best! Very satisfied 👍 I don't think there's a product like this during such a difficult time due to COVID-19. I noticed a clear difference when I took it compared to when I didn't. When I have a cold with a sore throat or runny nose, I take 4 tablets – 2 each morning and evening on an empty stomach. In the morning, I eat it with lactic acid bacteria, which enhance its effects. Evenings are before bed. I regret the day I forgot to take this, as I felt unwell. I wish I'd discovered it sooner. The egg-sized tablets are easy to swallow, with no strange odour. Good quality at a low price; I bought 6 bottles and will definitely repurchase after finishing them. I highly recommend it!

It's more economical than buying energy drinks, allowing me to just take taurine. My husband used to catch colds frequently with fevers, but since starting taurine, he hasn’t had a cold, and I feel energetic even on busy workdays. While there are often out-of-stock items, I believe it’s worth the effort.

Ginkgo Biloba is my go-to. I regularly take 60 mg daily in three-month courses, sometimes increasing to 120 mg. I've noticed enhanced brain activity, particularly with simultaneous tasks, and my cold feet issue has vanished. Previously, I wore woollen socks year-round, but after several courses of ginkgo, the problem disappeared. I have hypotension, and ginkgo does not affect my blood pressure negatively. This supplement is simply magical for me.

Very good quality! I love it! This is my second purchase. I tried another brand once, but this one is undoubtedly more effective for the prevention and treatment of colds. This winter, whenever I had cold symptoms, I felt fine the following day after taking it—and I also consume Brazilian propolis. I used to be highly susceptible to colds, with each illness lasting about a week, but now with olive leaves, I don’t fear catching a cold.
