How to use vitamin C in a sentence?

1. Pina LoGiudice:

   Studies show that the more sleep you get, the better your immune system will be, i would also recommend a small dose of vitamin C when a woman has a cold. You don’t want to take too much of it because it can induce contractions, so I usually keep it at anywhere less than 500 mg. I love Neti pots, especially if there is a sinus infection. And doing saltwater gargles if you have a sore throat.

2. Andrew Taylor:

   You can’t quit food, but I wanted to get as close as possible and wondered if there was one particular food i could eat and potatoes came up best, you literally get everything you need from potatoes. Everybody knows they’ve got lots of carbs but they have enough protein and fat and potatoes are really good for fiber, vitamin C and iron.

3. Carol Haggans:

   For most people, taking vitamin C supplements regularly does not reduce the risk of coming down with a cold.

4. Andrew Smyth:

   We were interested in looking at this particular group who have a high risk for cardiovascular disease because they are also going to have a high risk of cognitive decline, previous research has suggested that a Mediterranean diet -- rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, and healthy fats -- is associated with reduced risk of cognitive impairment. We've also seen preliminary research suggesting that eating vitamin C and folate-rich vegetables like spinach and broccoli may slow cognitive decline. Other research has suggested that blueberries may boost memory, and that a high intake of saturated and trans fats can have negative effects. So it's no surprise that to me that the healthiest eaters in this study fared the best in terms of their cognitive health.

5. Jennifer Harris:

   Most of the sweetened drinks say,' good source of vitamin C' or' 100 % vitamin C' but they have no or little juice, a lot of them say' low sugar,'' less sugar.' But they don't say it's because there's added low-calorie artificial sweeteners in there. It's just very confusing.
