There’s nothing I love more than an unexpected deal, and this October Amazon Prime Day does not disappoint. While sifting through the absolute best Amazon Prime Day deals, I spotted this 90-pack of Emergen-C
— the nectar of life that sustains me through cold and flu season — down to just $21.
Emergen-C is an excellent addition to your pantry any time of year, but it moves to a daily necessity during the winter, when my 3-year-old daughter brings home every single virus known to man. During Prime Big Deal Days, this 90-pack is a whopping 30% off (only $21!), which is exactly enough to get me through the winter (unless my husband finds it).

What does Emergen-C actually do?
Emergen-C is basically a superdose of Vitamin C, which can support your immune system and help prevent those nasty winter viruses from taking hold.
Is it guaranteed to stave off illness? Absolutely not; if there were a super supplement that could actually claim this, someone would have multiple Nobel Peace Prizes already. But it can help, especially when paired with a well-balanced diet and exercise during the cold and flu season.
Your best bet to keep sickness at bay this season is regular hand washing and avoiding people who are already sick. But for those of us who live with toddlers who spend their time sneezing then sticking their hands in your mouth, an OTC supplement like Emergen-C can provide just a bit more support to your immune system than you’d normally have.
As with any new medicine or supplement, you should consult with your doctor before adding it to your daily routine.
