Dr. Levy advises against calcium supplements for adults. Bill Sardi advises against both calcium and iron supplementation in adults. Those countries with the highest calcium consumption have the most heart attacks. In his book, The Iron Time Bomb Sardi makes his case.

The 400 mg recommended by LPI is about 8 times less than Pauling recommended to prevent cardiovascular disease:

These Links you posted all defend what we been saying all along .
The ones I presented shows that as the body ages nutritional requirements increase be it what ever chemical or mineral it may be.
As far as being specific to orthomolecular amounts we all know they would never be published in Government or medical establishments. The ones I found in the USDA publications in relation to V-C bounce all around the issue but concede that the bodies nutritional needs including V-C increase with age, exercise and stress.
If you can post something that either agrees or disagrees with this age issue and specifics to the amount V-C please do so. It would be appreciated and aid us in this search.

Hi, I have a substantial blockage in the Common Illiac artery, I am taking Vit C to bowel tolerance ( 8 g) and 2 gms Lysine, is there anything else I should be taking?

I calculated a dose of 4400mg using johnwen's table

Ok that should give you about 50 mg/Kg double it for therapeutic dose which you need, since you already have blockage forming that should put you at about a 100 mg/Kg that's the amount needed to make things start to happen.

If you don't hit BT (bowel tolerance) at that amount start upping the dose a little at a time. you'll know when you hit BT. Your from England you'll and Leu will start getting kind of close. Then back down about 500mg. it should stop if not drop another 500 mg. that's where you want to stay. (Me if I take more then 2000 mg. at one time during the day. Me and leu get close. So I take 1500 mg. Four times a day spaced out with no problems I'm at 6000 mg. as a preventive since Knock on wood no heart problems.)

Like Owen said keep your L-Lysine up to at least 4000 mg. 6000 mg. being optimal and don't exceed this amount.
Good Luck to you!
