Q1 What happens when someone gets a cold or mild upper
respiratory tract infection?
A1 The common cold can be caused by microbes that infect your
upper respiratory tract (i.e. your nose, sinuses, throat and
ears).
These microbes can be transferred when someone coughs or
sneezes near you. Alternatively, they can be transferred when
you touch a surface with the microbe on it, and then touch
your face. Once in your body, your immune system is triggered
to respond. This can cause the familiar cold symptoms such
as a runny or blocked nose, sore throat, frequent sneezing,
headache and cough.
Q2 How can Garlic help to maintain wellbeing?
A2 Garlic has been used for centuries in Western herbal medicine
to help manage the common cold and other mild upper
respiratory tract infections.
Modern researchers have discovered that Garlic contains
compounds with anti-microbial properties. This may be why
Garlic has been used extensively in many traditional cultures
and why it is still well-known today.
Q3 How does Vitamin C help to maintain healthy immunity?
A3 Vitamin C is a nutrient with powerful antioxidant properties;
and one that plays a wide variety of roles in your body. It
assists collagen manufacture and can help to maintain healthy
skin and connective tissue. It also aids iron absorption.
However, Vitamin C is also often referred to as “the immunity
vitamin”. It can support your immune system in several ways,
playing a vital role in a number of immune mechanisms. In
particular, Vitamin C supports your white blood cells (which
are responsible for fi ghting off microbes).
