Immune Support

Vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, elderberry and garlic - what people reach for through the winter. Vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc all contribute to the normal function of the immune system.

Natures Aid, Higher Nature, Biocare and Solgar cover most of this range, with Allicin Max on the garlic side. Immunity is the wider category, and vitamin C and vitamin D have their own.

Allicin Max are the name in stabilised allicin - the compound that makes garlic what it is, and which ordinary garlic capsules mostly lose. Biocare formulate in the UK with practitioners.

Higher Nature and Natures Aid cover the everyday end, and Solgar have been going since 1947. Between them they do the job without stocking six versions of the same thing.

From October to March the sunlight in the UK is too weak for skin to make vitamin D, which is why official advice is to consider a daily 10 microgram supplement over those months.

It is fat-soluble, so take it with a meal containing some fat. Many products pair it with K2, which is worth knowing about at higher doses.

Zinc contributes to normal immune function and is a sensible winter addition. It also has an upper limit worth respecting - taking a lot long-term can interfere with copper.

Add up what is already in your multivitamin before adding a separate zinc on top. More is not better here.

FAQ

How much vitamin D should I take?

Official UK advice is to consider 10 micrograms daily through autumn and winter. Higher doses are available and best taken on advice rather than by guessing.

Does garlic really need to be stabilised?

Allicin is fragile and most garlic capsules lose it in processing. Stabilised allicin products are made specifically to retain it, which is what you are paying for.

Can I take vitamin C and zinc together?

Yes, and many formulas combine them. Just add up the totals if you also take a multivitamin - zinc in particular has an upper limit.

When should I start?

Most people begin as the clocks change. Vitamin D in particular is taken right through autumn and winter rather than started once you already feel run down.
