The Linus Pauling Institute « To Extend the Healthspan – Micronutrient Research for Optimum Health

For decades we have been trying to understand the effects of vitamin C on the immune system, especially since Linus Pauling wrote Vitamin C and the Common Cold in 1970, with only limited success. Our best and most comprehensive analysis of the data at hand, collected from decades of research studies, shows that vitamin C has very limited effects on the frequency and duration of the common cold in the general population. This has led many to conclude that taking vitamin C to ward off a cold just isn’t worth it.

Does this mean we can now close the book on vitamin C and colds? Far from it.
