Getting Ready for Fall’s Three Cs: Colds, Coughs, and Vitamin C

While today’s 91 degrees, in fact this entire week’s weather, is no indication that Fall in the Seattle area is on its way, it will surely arrive.   And, it will bring all of its normal attacks on our immune systems including coughs, colds and flu.  One of the most critical elements in a healthy body, Vitamin C, is well-known for its immune-supporting properties.

I am often asked what C product I use.  I’m glad to share that it’s Shaklee’s Sustained Release Vita-C.  For many years, this has been my choice because it not only includes healthy doses of antioxidants specifically paired with vitamin C to best protect  against germs and illness.  It also has the clinical studies to demonstrate its claims.  This unique formula offers an all-day supply of vitamin C by slowly releasing small doses for several hours instead of a single blast.  Our bodies have no natural means of storing vitamin C.  Shaklee’s revolutionary Sustained Release Vita-C compound uses only natural ingredients.

It was the fact that friends and associates regularly asked me what I used for nutritional supplements and  Shaklee’s commitment to producing products in harmony with nature that finally pushed me towards starting my own home based health and wellness business.
