    Not sure as a frugal ozbargainer I would go for "just in case" supplements. All you need is 45mg/day which should be already in your food?

    • Not if you’re an elite skier or ultra marathon runner. These are the only two groups shown in studies to benefit from vitamin C supplementation. 200 mg a day seems to halve the incidence of colds.

      • Ive observed that.
        I usually get a bad flu around feb and this time of the year
        Got nothing in feb
        Got a mild flu in late april but was literaly not noticable while my wife and kids had a cough and runny nose.
        I also noticed that im less sore and recovery time is faster post workout. If its the vit C, then i would theorise its due to its anti-inflamatory effect.

        So im going to continue high does vit C

  • 3.4. The effect of vitamin C on immune cells activity and cytokines production
    The role of vitamin C as a modulator of immune response is well documented. It has been shown that vitamin C can modulate multiple immune cells functions and therefore might exert beneficial effects in the context of cellular immunotherapy. In vitro and in vivo studies reported that vitamin C promotes regulatory T cells (Tregs) functions through TET-dependent demethylation of the fork headbox P3 (FoxP3) regulatory elements [66], [67]. Thus, the induction and activation of TET enzymes in Tregs by vitamin C might be an attractive method for Tregs-mediated adoptive immunotherapy. It has also been shown that vitamin C increases in vivo and in vitro the proliferative capacity of human natural killer (NK) cells [68]. Interestingly, a recent study has demonstrated that vitamin C enhances the activation and differentiation of human Vγ9Vδ2 γδ T cells [69]. Therefore, vitamin C treatment can be considered as a novel strategy to optimize the in vitro generation of effective NK and Vγ9Vδ2 T cells for adoptive transfer for cancer patients. Moreover, vitamin C was shown to stimulate dendritic cells (DCs) to secrete more interleukin-12 (IL-12) and thereby drive naïve CD4 + T cells to differentiate into T helper 1 cells (Th1) [70]. Finally, treatment of mouse bone marrow-derived DCs with vitamin C led to an enhanced CD8 + memory T cell production in vivo [71].
