Can just Vitamin C get you through a cold?

What I mean is like, if I don't take any cold medicine, but I take those daily Vitamin C pills, or the Vick's Vitamin C Orange Drops, which tastes good, and some OJ, will I get through my cold just as good?
To waqar khan, the website you posted redirected me to this insurance site: http://answers.0fees.net/ so that didn't really help me.

How can you absorb vitamins better?

Is there any kind of medicine (perscription or anything) that allows your body to better absorb vitamins?

Also, what kind of perscription medications are used to treat anemia? (not aplastic, or sickle cell) I know iron supplements, but any perscriptions, and what do they do?

Has anyone found a vitamin regimen that works for your seizures?

My boyfriend has epilepsy and the Keppra and Lamictal do not work so great. He frequently has moments of complete scatterbrainness. I think that to control these little breakthrough moments, he needs to find vitamins.

Open to any and all alternative ideas and treatments. Done with western medicine.
In response to AngryDoc - I work for a pharmaceutical company, so trust me, I realize that some meds have a lot of benefits, but as I'm sure anyone with Epilepsy can say, getting pushed through the medical system, going to Mayo and the University of Chicago and the University of Iowa, and getting NO results can be irritating.

My boyfriend is an amazing person, and on top of everything else, he is willing to have a job and not spend taxpayers dollars on disability. Instead, he goes to work and often has to leave early because he can't hold a clear thought.

We realize that vitamins are not a cure. But, things do help, his current neurologist has even suggested alternative therapies.

This is why we are DONE with Western medicine, because of the complete arrogance by the people who don't care about anyone or anything other than their wallets. Pushing chemicals through your body and ruining your internal organs is not the way to go.

Why would my mom have prenatal vitamins?

I recently found them in our medicine cabinet. They are new and couldn't have been for my little sister because she is twelve and we have moved several times. She wouldn't use them to grow her hair or nails. She has been taking "One A Day: Woman's Vitamins" so i wouldn't think she'd need extra vitamins. She has gained a little weight, but it isn't her diet. And she has been exercising regularly. My mom is turning forty soon, and hasn't gone through menopause.

Where can you order quality vitamins online?

I have ordered from IHerb and a few other companies, but was wondering if anyone else has found a very good company that carries high-quality - not necessarily cheap - alternative medicine supplements and vitamins. I have discovered with nutritional supplements that you really do "get what you pay for."

Does anyone know the effects of mixing blood pressure medicine and liquor?

My bf takes medicine for high blood pressure, he has an enlarged heart, diabetes and sleep apnea. In his fridge he has two six packs of zimas. He says that they don't have enough alcohol in them to hurt anything. Am I stressing for nothing or is he a complete moron?
