[Gpdd] HEALTH: Vitamin C Drops

[Megan Gladney]

Hi everyone - I have another health related question today that concerns 
vitamin C drops placed in piggies' water. I have heard several times that 
these drops degrade in the water and can cause more problems than anything. 
I have noticed that Phylo's water bottle becomes reeeeeeeeally smelly and 
cruddy when I use them. I always make sure that his water bottle is washed 
in warm soapy water and rinsed very well on a regular basis, but this did 
not help when using the vitamin C drops. For this reason I was going to 
forgo them altogether. I buy him the vitamin C-enriched pellets that he was 
started on when he was born, and he also gets lots of treats - such as red 
and green pepper and romaine lettuce - throughout the week. However, will 
this be enough to prevent health problems related to vitamin C deficiency 
later on in life? Any information would be great - thanks!

Love and wheeks!

Megan, Jerry, and Phylo
