A study at the University of Alabama suggests that doses of vitamin C may help prevent illness by reducing the production of stress hormones, which tends to suppress the immune system. The study, presented at the national meeting of the American Chemical Society found that stress hormones could be limited by vitamin C, while immune response, often compromised by stress, could be maintained. If vitamin C is able to block the production of stress hormones, then that would also translate into less immunosuppression and less susceptiblity to debilitation and illness because of stressful conditions. The researchers also pointed out that ultramarathon runners who took vitamin C experienced fewer colds and other respitory problems than runners who neglected to take this nutrient.
