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.

Effective vitamin C

A life saver for people with allergic rhinitis! I suffered for years until I discovered that Vitamin C was the remedy for me. I prefer drinking freshly squeezed orange or grapefruit juice, but it’s impractical every day. When my nose starts to feel stuffed, I take a couple of Vitamin C tablets and feel better the next day. If I have a terrible sinus headache, I take 3 or 4 tablets at night and wake up headache-free. This vitamin was incredibly helpful during our January trip to Switzerland.

My mum appears stronger, and I feel the same. We usually suffer from allergies, particularly runny noses in the morning and before bed. Since taking C-1000, we feel fresh and have no more runny noses. I believe it also aids in skin brightness. Highly recommend the sustained release formula.

They really work. Even though these tablets are large for my liking, they absorb well. I’m not sure how the absorption process works, but after taking them for about a month, I’ve definitely noticed my skin glowing and I usually suffer from bad sinuses or allergies around this time of year, yet I'm feeling quite well so far. I feel a strong immune system with no signs of getting ill at all. I also want to thank this company for refunding a price drop without hesitation.
