From this health blog we him keep on turning to the quantities of nutrients that our organism needs in the laborious task of every day. In this occasion we have wondered: how many vitamin C do we need? After knowing the quantities of iron, calcium and magnesium, it touches him the shift to this important vitamin essential for our development.

One of the myths most honored on the vitamin C is that the orange is the food with more proportion of this type of vitamins. Without entran, to value, nor to discuss this affirmation, what yes is true is that as the orange, there is other food with a big vitamin quantity C in his composition. In this sense we have to stand out, over the rest, to the pepper.

But: how many vitamin C do we need? The answer we might appraise it in 110 milligrams a day. This is an approximate quantity, since also you can find other places in which they speak to you of 80 takes ó 90 mg. Of course, the vitamin ingestion C should be done of form distributed throughout the day. On the other hand, since we have seen earlier, both the fruit and the vegetable are the principal vitamin sources C.

Namely an ideal menu of ingestion of vitamin C might be composed by 1/4 of pepper and the same of grapefruit, 50 grams of canons, half a lemon and a pair of raspberries. An orange juice also has consistency sufficient to use himself.

Defeat of the vaccine against the flu A

Everything seems to indicate that the prevention campaign against the awesome flu A has not stayed any more than in that: a campaign. The big psychosis that they have put to us in the body with the problems that might generate the flu A, finally has been that: psychosis. Eye, from this health blog we do not mean that it is a pantomina, but the facts speak themselves: defeat of the vaccine against the flu A.

And that thing about the vaccine is only an example of many other aspects that have formed the campaign of the flu A. A strong deployment of means that finally, and for fortune, has not been for so much. There is great Community Autonomous that, in Spain, already have deactivated the special prevention campaign against the flu A.

But the really significant thing that thing about is the vaccines. Of the 37 millions of vaccines that they were acquired (a drove of donkeys), it was anticipated that 10 millions would be needed. Well, in the first five weeks (from November 16 until December 20) that the vaccination campaign has lasted against the flu A almost two million dose have been used in Spain. This means that if it continues the current vaccinations rhythm, at the end of the campaign nearly three million vaccines will have put themselves.

What means this, something very simple: defeat of the vaccine against the flu A. Of the 37 millions of acquired vaccines, three millions will be necessary only. One of the errors that have been committed is that it was thought, when there were bought the vaccines, which would need two doses for patient. Another error is that vaccines wanted to be bought to cover 60 % of the population, instead of 40 % initial (and that that the high-risk groups are less than 20 % of the population). But the worst thing of everything is that any more than 45 % of persons of the high-risk groups has not been vaccinated.

Therefore, it seems clear that something one has harmed. And the question now is: What will be done by 34 million vaccines that have not put themselves?
