Q: Does vitamin C protect against COVID and flu?

A: It strengthens immunity and helps your body handle infections better, but it's not a vaccine and doesn't prevent infection 100%. It shortens the duration and reduces symptoms.

Q: Is regular vitamin C or Ester-C better?

A: Ester-C is gentler on the stomach and stays in the body longer. If your stomach is sensitive, Ester-C is better. If normal, regular 1000mg is sufficient and appropriate.

Q: Can vitamin C accumulate in the body and cause harm?

A: Vitamin C is water-soluble and excreted in urine — it doesn't accumulate like fat-soluble vitamins. Excess only causes diarrhea or stomach irritation.
