emergenC packets

[Vandy]

What are your takes on those EmergenC packets found at Whole Foods or Wild Oats?

They are expensive, don't seem to make a difference and I'm wondering if they are raw. Use to use them before raw so never bothered to check w/ manufacturer.

They work for me. I like to put two or three in my water.

Hi ren,

How do they help you?

[ren]

I can buy them easy because I work at Whole Foods. Being a cashier, I come into contact with lots of people. I notice more endurance and feel a little better with a spring in my step. I have to take two at least to get the effects I want.

They are my substitute for Gatorade actually. I tend to take one after I have been depleted from strenuous exercise or if I am feeling a bit tired or dehydrated (they seem to get me drinking water). Not sure if they are 'raw', but I myself am not 100 percent raw (more in the 90 percent range).

I seem to absorb the vitamin C in them better than if I take it in capsule form...I can keep 'bugs' at bay this way too :) They are nice for traveling as well...
