Emergen-C

By Allison Sass

As a post grad starting a new career, the last thing you want is to come down with a horrible cold during the first few months you are working, especially if you don't have paid sick days! Emergen-C packets are vitamin supplements that work wonders for me. They are so easy to use:

1. pour glass of water

2. empty packet into water

3. stir and drink!

Easy enough? The trick with Emergen-C is to use the packets before a full-fledged cold actually hits. If I'm feeling a little under the weather or start to experience signs of a common cold, I take one of these packets right away. They provide you with 1,000 mg of Vitamin C per serving along with tons of antioxidants and electrolytes.

Check for Emergen-C in the vitamin aisle of your local grocery store and be sure to stay healthy!
