Hello to all,
I have been doing oral mega dosing of VC- by capping sodium ascorbate in "000" caps- about 2 grams each, taken at each hour, and 1 hydrochloric acid (HCI) 500mg at each half hour. No bowel distress, unless I eat a lot of carbohydrates. Protein seems to be the better ingrediant with vc. This is working very well against hep c.
I also did huge amounts of iv vc for a month -this made a huge difference against shortness of breath, and liver pain.
Lately, I am adding lots of antioxidants and flavonoids, after reading several articles that state that flavs make the vc even more effective, by squelching even more free radicals, and re-cycling the vc, or "saving" it, and also, the flavs are said to complete synthetic VC.
Of course, natural flavs are always best, but green tea extract, ginko, milk thistle, grape seed ext., rutin, quercitin, NAC, lemon peel -(dried in the sun, and powdered, added to the vc powder)
are all boosters.
R-lipoic acid is said to be a better form if alpha for an anti-ox. that recycles c.
I got in the habit of eating a whole watermelon each day for the last couple summers and noticed a big difference then as well.
Also, lately I have been doing the castor oil packs each night. I believe that the oil "moves" fluid, as they say, and this moves toxins out, and the good stuff in. I do notice a difference from it.
