Natural Care Library Vitamin C: Safe and Effective Self-Care for Preventing Colds, Cancer and Stress

"As children, my mother used to give us vitamin C constantly. I don't remember
a day as a child when I was not munching on some delicious vitamin C chewable vitamin. My mother swore this would cure just about anything...and it seems to have kept me alive this long!

Vitamin C will help to block pollutants, enhance your immunity, repair bone damage, maintain hormone production and generally help you fight infection.

Do I still take it as an adult? You bet! Along with Echinacea in the winter! Please do consult your physician before taking any medications. A Naturopath will be able to tell you what you need. Otherwise, this book is pretty good at explaining Vitamin C in detail.

This book explains what Vitamin C is, where to get it naturally from food, why deficiencies can occur and how to treat various conditions with special doses.

Handy Reference. Just keep drinking your Orange Juice! ;>

A good way to get Vitamin C naturally is to drink fruit smoothies in the morning. That way, you can blend papaya, pineapple, strawberries, kiwi, yogurt and orange juice and really get a good dose, plus most of your fruits for the day. See the Suzanne Somers cookbooks for more information or write me for my favorite recipe. There are also many, many books on Fruit Smoothies out there that are simply wonderful.

The book: "Super Foods for Children" has delicious fruit drinks for children. In the summer, you can keep fruit frozen to make smoothies to beat the heat!

Nice Compact Reference with information you can easily absorb!
