What is your opinion on "emergen-c" vitamin powder supplement? do you think it actually boosts the immune system? is it good to drink a packet a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vitamin C has a: half-life of about 12 hours, that's how long it stays in the body. Whatever form of it you take, take it in the a.m. and in the evening for round the clock help w/immunity. Peace and good health.
