More lies!!

https://www.fitandwell.com/features/what-vitamins-should-not-be-taken-together

s. “Vitamin C and Vitamin B12 are another pair of vitamins that may be best taken apart as Vitamin C reduces the absorption of Vitamin B12.


This phony research by Victor Herbert was debunked as long ago as 1986, when Pauling wrote HOW TO LIVE LONGER AND FEEL BETTER.


And today was a two-fer for BS. Here is another deliberately deceitful article

In almost all cases,vitamin and mineral supplements are not helpful
https://www.kpcnews.com/columnists/arti ... 71546.html

Among the lies is this widely reported, false news story, about beta carotene and cancer.

Taking extra beta carotene is associated with an increase in the risk of CVD death, as well as an increased incidence of lung cancer in smokers and those with occupational exposure to asbestos.


The real story is that a YALE group reevaluated the same Finish data, and came to the OPPOSITE conclusion as the original researchers. In other words the fear of beta carotene has been debunked by some of the best scientists in the world. This was never published widely by the mainstream media.

article with more untruths..

Does vitamin c cause chest pain?
https://www.dane101.com/does-vitamin-c-cause-chest-pain/


and this article referring to a flawed study should be changed to taking LOW DOSES of vitamin C did not alter the course of COVID.

What the researchers found was patients taking 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C saw no change in the course of their infection, compared to those taking a placebo.

Propagating the Vitamin C "can't treat sepsis" BIG LIE throughout the medical profession...

Who are those guys? This web site never gives up... Probably worth a deep dive to determine who owns it...

I'm a Doctor and This Vitamin is the #1 Worst Waste of Money
https://www.eatthis.com/these-vitamins-are-the-worst-waste-of-money/

Dr. Curry-Winchell tells us, "Vitamins are important, but they can cause harm. Your body naturally makes most vitamins such as D and K — so taking extras can put your health at risk. Most often people take too many vitamins to improve their health and/or treat a condition leading to more harm than good. It's important to note, vitamins are not regulated by the FDA for their safety and effectiveness or marketing practices before they are placed on store shelves."


Total BS! Supplements are HIGHLY regulated, so much so that a single error on a supplement label can lead to a fine of hundreds of millions of dollars. Pauling genius informed us that generally, taking too many vitamins is harmless (unlike minerals).

Dr. Curry-Winchell emphasizes, "Vitamin C is a huge part of your diet. Taking extra doses can cause several adverse effects such as headache and vomiting."


If the "huge part of the diet" were only true. And why do competent authorities say that more than 40% of the population is vitamin C deficient (show signs of scurvy?)

That's a good one, pity she didn't provide any citations :(

Anyway I took the bait and had to look her up to see what she stands for...

Thanks. Basically they are hiding behind a privacy wall.

Inspiration. Maybe we should create a "fact checking" organization, on the order of the Foundation, but devoted to the real science of nutrition? I'll add it to our list :-)

Great question. Per their conclusion

Vitamin C supplementation is associated with accelerated early atherosclerosis measured by carotid IMT compared to a protective association with vitamin C from food. T


Either Linus Pauling was wrong, or there is something wrong with this study (which we analyzed and wrote about back in 2012).

The carotid IMT measure is the problem. Collagen production that makes the artery healthier can also increase IMT.

Thank you I will look up carotid IMT. I did a search on "Differing Relations to Early Atherosclerosis" on this forum, and got nothing. I'd like to read that discussion from 2012.

Unfortunately, the forum is pruned, but I may have written an article about this... When I find it, I will post the link. TODO LIST

This looks like a rehash of the "study" that has already been debunked.
Vitamin C infusion does not stave off death, organ dysfunction in ICU-admitted patients with sepsis
https://specialty.mims.com/topic/vitamin-c-infusion-does-not-stave-off-death--organ-dysfunction-in-icu-admitted-patients-with-sepsis

People with sepsis don't die on vitamin C, only after it has been stopped.

A man in Australia lost his ability to walk after taking 70 times the recommended amount of vitamin B6


A man in Australia lost his ability to walk after consuming 70 times the recommended daily dose of vitamin B6, ABC Radio Melbourne reported.

The 86-year-old man had previously been active and lived independently, his daughter Alison Taylor told ABC Radio, until a blood test revealed he had a slight deficiency in vitamin B6.

Taylor said her father didn't have any symptoms of poor health, but his doctor prescribed a 50-milligram vitamin B6 supplement to up his levels. Vitamin B6, like other B vitamins, helps the body convert food into energy by breaking down carbs and protein. Research suggests it can help the body's immune system and certain brain functions.


50 mg you say. Common to buy in 100mg.

The text is more reasonable than the headline.
