Building up strong immunity is key for making it through cold and flu season in one piece. And the key to a healthy immune system is plenty of antioxidants! Zinc and vitamin C function as antioxidants in the body, which means that they fight back against free radicals. These are cells in the body that can cause inflammation, tissue damage, and illness among other things. Fruits and vegetables are a great source of antioxidants, but we can’t always guarantee they’ll gobble up every bite. So, that’s why we made these chewable zinc + vitamin C bites!
Why take zinc and vitamin C together?
Teamwork makes the dream work! Research has shown that taking these nutrients together is actually best, as vitamin C contains ascorbic acid which makes zinc much easier to absorb. Plus, having both helps the body get better even faster since they both support the immune system, protect cells and fight inflammation. They are both essential nutrients, which means they’re not produced naturally in the body and must be obtained from dietary or supplemental sources.
Why is zinc good for kids?
