Instant C, D, Zinc Immunity Effervescent - Watermelon

Vitamin C is an important antioxidant when it comes to a healthy immune system! Not only is it renown for helping fight off a common cold or flu, but vitamin C also plays a role in our skin health, including wound healing, and helping reduce severity of chronic illnesses. However, many common factors can actually reduce our body's vitamin C load including stress, smoking, poor gut health and use of oral contraceptives.

The addition of the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D, both aids in our body's ability to absorb calcium to support our bone health, as well as reducing our susceptibility to infection. It is important to choose products that use vitamin D3, which is best absorbed and utilized by our body. Those who live in colder climates with reduced exposure to sunlight benefit greatly from additional vitamin D supplementation.

 Zinc is another antioxidant with well-known immune supportive and anti-inflammatory benefits with reported benefits of reducing the length of the common cold. It can also aid in wound healing. Similar to vitamin C, zinc levels in the body may be depleted by stress and oral contraceptives, along with alcohol use and those following a vegetarian diet.
