FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Does Vitamin C really help against colds?

According to several meta-analyses, regular Vitamin C intake does not seem to prevent the common cold in the general population, but it can help reduce the duration and severity of symptoms. In individuals under high physical stress (athletes, soldiers, marathon runners), a preventive effect has been observed.

How much Vitamin C is needed daily?

The daily requirement of Vitamin C varies from 80 to 100 mg in adults, but during periods of greater demand (cold, stress, smoking, intense sport) it may be useful to increase intake through food or supplements.

Is Camu-Camu better than other sources of Vitamin C?

Camu-Camu naturally contains high concentrations of Vitamin C, together with other antioxidant phytonutrients. This makes it one of the most powerful and complete sources compared to other fruits.

Scientific studies on Vitamin C and colds

Scientific research has long explored the link between Vitamin C and the common cold:

• The Cochrane Review 2013 (Hemilä & Chalker) concluded that Vitamin C does not prevent colds in the general population but can reduce their duration and severity.
• A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition highlighted that high doses of Vitamin C (≥ 200 mg/day) are associated with better recovery from flu and cold symptoms.

These findings suggest that Vitamin C supplementation, especially from natural sources such as Camu-Camu, can support the body during periods of greater exposure to colds and seasonal infections.
