Post by: Actomik on Dec 24, 2017 Your friend has been taking vitamin C supplements throughout February so that she won't get sick before heading off to Daytona Beach for Spring Break. What should you tell your friend about vitamin C's ability to prevent the common cold?

However, placebo-controlled studies have not found that vitamin C supplements prevent colds more than placebos, particularly in well-nourished people.
