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.

Miracle vitamin C

After two years without getting sick, I switched to a generic vitamin C brand and subsequently fell ill. I once suffered from cold sores frequently, but after taking Ester-C daily, I noticed a significant decrease. I went months without an outbreak, and even when I had the flu, a sore didn’t develop. I felt as though I had recovered from a terminal condition. This vitamin also alleviated my frequent allergies and colds. While my flu recovery was lengthy, it showed me the benefits of vitamin C, suggesting it may help others as well.

Our recently rescued Irish Wolfhounds, Piper and Finnegan, suffered from digestive and skin issues due to allergies. These problems are commonly evident as "ears and rears". The main concern was food allergies, which became quite a challenge to manage. Before embarking on eliminating foods, I sought advice from a friend who breeds champion IWHs. She suggested adding 1,000 mg of Ester-C to their meals. I started incorporating this supplement and also gave them a Benadryl pill at night to ease their symptoms. After about a week, their messiness and itching markedly reduced. Now, as seen in the attached picture, they are smiling happily.
