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.

Wonderful! I am not allergic to it! My body did not tolerate other vitamin C brands; they always caused a red, itchy rash. This vitamin C didn’t cause any allergies, and I’m very pleased. I recommend it to anyone with similar issues; it may work for you.

This vitamin has become essential for my family. We take it at the first signs of a cold—one capsule every three hours and one daily for prevention. Neither the children nor adults have experienced allergies, and there are no stomach issues. It's truly an excellent product.

I recommend buying this vitamin! Initially chosen for rosacea, it unexpectedly alleviated my long-standing allergies—skin rashes, runny nose, conjunctivitis—since I started taking it three months ago. I haven’t required anti-allergic medication since. Vitamins break down well without irritation.
