What I don't know is if this is medically supported, or if it's just my body fighting the cold that causes a flare up and taking immune boosting medicines isn't making it any worse.
research supported on supplements, and immune system is limited or lacking. since supplements are not regulated, they sometimes arnt tested for efficacy.
i looked at the emergen-c, definition, it seems to contain quite alot of b12,b6, and vit c. POSSIBLY the megadose of the b6 could be causing the flareup
