It is a habit for me to take vitamins everyday but sometimes because of busy schedules, I always forget to take. Instead, I will get some fruits outside rich in vitamin C as a replacement. Vitamin C will protect us from being sick especially now that swine flu is widespread all over the world, nobody is safe, therefore, taking vitamins can at least protect us from any diseases. Do you also take vitamins daily or you take other vitamins aside from vitamin C. I also like this Vitamin C produced by Germany where you can pour the tablet into the water and it will taste like a cola with orange flavor.

Certain vitamins have certain usage and help in our body. Since you say that you work graveyard shift, then you can actually take Iron. But to take vitamin C once in a while can also help your protect from any other diseases. Have a nice day. Happy Mylotting

Yes I take Vitamin C almost daily. But I get it from juices such as pineapple juice, C2 green tea and FirstVitaplus juice. FirstVitaplus is my main source of Vitamin C. One of its nutrients is the vegetable "Malunggay" which is very rich in Vitamin C. I have to maintain taking vitamin C to strengthen my resistance particularly against AH1N1. Vitamin C is also good in lowering blood pressure. It is also helpful in preventing eye cataract and brain diseases. Vitamin C is one of the most versatile vitamins that exist.

Hi there. Pineapple is really good. I also like green tea because it can actually helps us clean our internals plus it can help us maintain a good blood circulation. I have tried malunggay when i was in Philippines. It was cooked with Chicken and it was called Tinola. I really want to try it again if I will be given the chance to come to Philippines again. Hopefully next year. Thank you very much for the best information you have shared. Have a nice day. Keep posting.
Happy Mylotting,

Hi there new responder. Your mother is very sweet. She reminds you of taking vitamins. Same as my mom even if we are far away, when I call her, she always mention that I must not forget taking vitamins. I am scared of that swine flu and I do hope that I will not get it. I am having fever right now, I think because of the problem in my throat. I was with the doctor yesterday and I was advice to be back next week. I just hope, all is fine.
Keep posting. Happy mylotting. Have a nice day.

Nah,ever since i've learned that I'm suffering from hyperacidity, I stopped taking vitamins especially Vitamin C because it contains high amount of acid that's been bad for my health. I also do believe that vitamins can cause severe liver damage as well so the thing is you just have to eat healthy foods and maintain your figure so you won't even ever need vitamins.

Hehe. In your case, then you should stop taking this vitamin. But for sure, there are lots of alternatives you can take to prevent you from getting sick. Well, I will disagree with you that it can cause liver damage. History does not show anything like that. There have been no studies proven that vitamins can damage internal part of the body. In the first place, companies will stop producing such medicines when it really has bad effects to our system. Eating healthy foods is not really enough. It has to be supported by some vitamins. Just my opinion dear. Take care. have a nice day. keep posting.

I take vitamins everyday, but I've always believed that vitamin c is the most important of them all. If you only take one vitamin, vitamin c is a good choice! But the more you build up your immune system, the better your chances of fighting flus, etc.

First of all, thank you for wring a response to my discussion. Yes, you are right. Vitamin C is one of the most important that we need. Especially now that there are a lot of viruses coming. We have to be prepared and the best is to take Vitamins, not only vitamin C. Have a nice day. Keep posting. Happy mylotting.

I take Vitamin C but sometimes I forgot to take it. Eating citrus fruits well also do but it is much better when you take the tablet form because the amount of Vitamin C there is enough. The only reason why I took it is because of my health condition and also for protecting myself in flu and swine flu. Now it is the season of flu here in the Philippines many got sicks including my family. I'm only one in our family don't got sick with flu because I think Vitamin C works for me to boost my immune system.

Yeah me too, sometimes I really forget or sometimes I am just so lazy. Yes, tablets is actually processed and it contained much vitamins. This vitamin is good to protect us from sickness like fever and flu. You just mentioned swine flu. Our country is suffering from this illness and I do hope that in due time, people will be cured, of course not because of vitamin c, but because they know how to take good care of themselves. Everything start to self by making oneself clean all the time and aware what is happening to prevent getting the flu and pass it to other.
Keep posting. happy Mylotting.
