Tower's CardioAde powdered drink mix provides 5,000 mg of ascorbic acid and 5,000 mg of lysine daily. The amino acid L-lysine inhibits the proliferation of viruses and together with vitamin C helps in preventing and eliminating viral infections.
Since vitamin C protects lysine in the body, lysine with vitamin C has a much stronger anti-virus effect than if either is used separately.
NOTE: With consistent dosing of 500-1,000 mg per hour, vitamin C and lysine can also aid in more rapid recovery from viral illness.

Flu Virus Outbreaks
The outbreak of disease in people caused by a highly contagious new influenza virus continues to grow in the United States and internationally. On April 29, 2009 the Center for Disease Control reported additional confirmed human infections, hospitalizations and the first human fatality in the United States from this outbreak.
The more recent illnesses and the reported deaths suggest that a pattern of more severe illness associated with this virus may be emerging in the U.S. Most people will not have immunity to this new virus and, as it continues to spread, more cases, more hospitalizations, and more deaths are expected in the coming days and weeks.
Research on Vitamin C, Viruses and Immune Function
When your body’s immune system operates properly, it protects against bacteria and viruses and keeps you well. Research has revealed important data on the beneficial effects of vitamin C on certain parts of the immune system. Scientific experiments have been conducted to determine whether quantitative evidence could be found to support the theories of Linus Pauling and others about the benefits of vitamin C in preventing viruses such as the common cold and flu viruses. The findings have shown that vitamin C supplementation raises the blood concentration of IgG, (Ig is an abbrevlatlon for immunoglobulin), IgA, IgM, and the C3 complement component - the key members of the immune system.
The Immune System and its Functions
To understand the importance of these results, some background in the functions of the immune system is necessary. This system is the body’s self defense force. It patrols the body like a mobile army, protecting against foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses. It will either attack these invaders directly or utilize “mercenary troops” to aid in their disposal.
There are several parts to the immune system, each with a different function. Three of the most important immunoglobulins are IgA, IgM, and IgC.
IgA antibodies are found mainly at the surfaces of the openings of the body. Moist surfaces such as the mouth are covered with IgA antlbodies that are ready to attack invading bacteria or viruses and prevent them from entering your system through these openings.IgM antibodies are the first to respond to the intrusion of antigens (the enemy cells which trigger the antibody response) and serve as the means of activating additional parts of the immune system to join in the fight.IgG antibodies make up the largest percentage of antibodies in the blood, about 70%, and they are very effective at protecting the body from viral infections such as the swine flu. IgC is the most important class of antibodies that crosses the placenta from an immunized mother to her fetus and thus provides early antibody protection for the newborn infant until the baby can produce his own antibodies.The complement system with nine components labeled Cl through C9 is activated by the presence of other immunoglobulins and is very important in the destruction of antigens. C3 is one of the most important of the complement components.What Does All This Mean?
In summary, scientific studies have found that supplementation with high dose vitamin C significantly increases serum IgG, IgA, IgM, and C3 levels, thereby strengthening the most important parts of your body's own immunological system.
As new flu strains emerge and outbreaks continue, vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and extremely effective at the levels that Linus Pauling recommended for prevention and optimal health.
