My god that disgusting McDonalds breakfast is what I lived on for a few years, in my late teens, early 20's. I'm 26 now, but I have taken on a newfound interest in my health. My body has been wrecked physically from years of drug and alcohol abuse and poor diet. I suffer from horrible anxiety, depression, low energy. I had always thought these things were something separate from cardiovascular disease, and that CVD was something that people my age, had no business worrying about. Yet I'm starting to slowly realize the truth. That these maladies are somehow linked. I have neglected my physical health and I'm paying for it. I just hope I can turn my cardiovascular situation around. I quit smoking 3 years ago, and have given up the booze for a few months now, I exercise everyday, take 15 grams of vitamin c, and I have to admit I'm feeling better and better everyday.
In the past, I have taken 2 different anti-depressants, 2 different anti-anxiety drugs, and an adhd drug over the years and nothing has ever helped me. Yet, I've noticed that keeping my ascorbate levels up, dosing every 3-4 hours, for a total intake of lik 15-20 grams, has virtually eliminated my depressive symptoms. I'm now a firm believer!!!!!!
