Doctor Explains Whether Vitamin C Can Fight Colds on Its Own
Vitamin C is an important element that is necessary for the body.
But some people think that this component will be enough to treat a cold. This is not true. Even a large dose of vitamin C will not cope with the problem.
But it should be remembered that during illness, ascorbic acid helps to start a number of processes in the body that really help recovery.
When you have a cold, you need to take vitamin C, as it will speed up recovery, but the vitamin itself cannot cure a person.
Therefore, it is necessary to approach treatment comprehensively and with the help of a specialist.
This was stated by Doctor Andrey Tyazhelnikov, RIA Novosti reports.
It is important to follow the recommendations and not to overdo it with vitamin C, otherwise there is a risk of negative consequences.
For example, nausea, diarrhea, headaches may occur. Urolithiasis may also develop.
