In the winter, it's important to consume vitamins D, C and zinc, said Holly Zokkolan, a holistic nutrition coach, writes Express.
The doctor named vitamin D a naturally occurring nutrient obtained from sunlight. During the winter months when people are deficient in sunlight, it should be taken as a supplement. This vitamin strengthens the immune system. It is found in fatty fish, organ meats, cheese, egg yolks.
Zinc, like vitamin C, helps fight colds in winter. The latter is also important in the restoration of body tissues.
Earlier, therapist Lyudmila Lapa said that vitamins D and C can help strengthen the immune system in the autumn-winter season of respiratory diseases. Food supplements should be consumed in moderation, as hypervitaminosis can lead to intoxication of the body, and it will be difficult to treat it. Before purchasing vitamins, it is recommended that you visit your doctor to find the correct dosage.
