What multivits ?

[hammerman]

I keep getting colds....3 heavy nasty ones in the past 3 months and it's been suggested that i take multivits in order to boost my immunity a bit more.

is there anything you'd recommend....i'm a 44 year old bloke, over weight, non smoker, moderate ale drinker, good eater and im on blood pressure tablets. I have an active job as head gardener and im pretty happy and fit in other ways.

What do you think would benifit me ?

I eat plenty of fresh fruit, red and orange peppers and haven't had a cold now for the last 3 years

Don´t buy multivites..........keep your money in your pocket.

I heard that zinc helps boost your immune system, so I take vitamin C and zinc tablets.

I have said this before on AB and it works for me. At the very very first signs of a cold, a sore throat etc. or if someone near you sneezes or has a runny nose or you think you could catch something ... take Echinacea. I get mine from Holland and Barrett . Just take two the first day, then one a day for a week. You mustn't take them all the time. Its not worth taking them if you are ill already, it will be too late. Maybe in between your colds if you feel you are getting another one !
