Would taking 2 grams of vitamin C be able to protect you from MRSA?


well besides the ovbouis clean and cover a wound could taking that much vitamin C (which i do) each day be able to prevent it or take care of MRSA if you get it? im guessing it would since people who only get 60 milligrams of vitamin C can fight it off

No it won't. But it won't hurt. If you're keeping it clean and protected, that's the best defense.
