Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that delivers antioxidant benefits by quenching free radicals.?1 Vitamin C further supports the immune system in its important roles in white blood cell production and function as well as other immune system cells.2
-
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that consists of active vitamin A (or retinol) as well as carotenoids – precursors that convert to active vitamin A in the body. Beta-carotene is the most common of these carotenoids. Vitamin A also helps control cellular processes in the immune system and contributes to the growth and development of immune cells.?
-
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has been primarily studied for its role in bone health. More recent studies have shown vitamin D plays an important part in immune system health.? Vitamin D receptors are located in almost all immune system cells, where vitamin D regulates and enhances the immune response and is involved in immune cell function.?4
-
Vitamin E is an essential nutrient and antioxidant.? In addition to helping neutralize free radicals, studies have shown that vitamin E improves the activity and reproduction of some immune cells.?5
-
Zinc plays an important role in hundreds of different processes throughout the body, including the immune system, which relies on zinc for normal development and function of immune cells.?6 Zinc is also required for certain antioxidant enzymes and protects cells from susceptibility to oxidative damage.?7

Some food sources of immune support nutrients include:
-
Vitamin C - Fruits, fruit juice and vegetables are rich sources of vitamin C. Oranges, orange juice, red bell peppers, strawberries and broccoli are some examples of fruits and vegetables that provide excellent amounts of vitamin C per serving.
-
Vitamin A - Eggs, cheese, and fish-liver oil are all good sources of vitamin A. Good sources of beta-carotene, the precursor to vitamin A, include apricots, broccoli, carrots, dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach, and deep orange fruits and vegetables such as sweet potatoes.
-
Vitamin D is found in only a few foods, including fatty fish, cod liver oil, egg yolks, and vitamin D-fortified milk. Sunlight is also a source of vitamin D, however many people do not meet the minimum requirement of sun exposure (without sunscreen) of 5-30 minutes per day/two times per week.9
-
Vitamin E - Some foods containing vitamin E include sunflower seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, peanut butter, and apricots.
-
Zinc can be found in shellfish such as oysters and crab, as well as some animal sources like beef, pork and turkey.
