Vitamin C Forum

I started researching and came across the Vitamin C Foundation. I started out taking 15gams right off the bat, then realized I was supposed to be taking every two hours. I now take 10 grams every two 2 hours.

The genital herpes was passed along to me 12 years from my hubby. He never has an breakout and I have one every month or so. I do not handle stress well so I am told this is what is causing them. When I started taking the 10 grams I had an outbreak and immediately saw the blister clear up within a day. It was amazing.

I have seen no results on the Rheumatoid. I also take Vitamin E, A, D, and lysine as well as Mag/Calcium. I take about 16,000iu of A, 10,000 of D3, and around 800 iu of E. I added selenium also. I have taken as much as 75grams of Vitamin C a day and it takes me almost 50 to get to bowel intolerance.

All your reported "problems" generally require large amounts of ascorbate (vitamin C), which explains your very high bowel tolerance. The liposomal approach is not a bad idea, as an adjunct, as it should raise blood levels like an IV. Let us know what improvements you experience.

There are dentists who monitor the forum who may wish to comment on your dental experience. It sounds like your chronic sinusitis is caused by the "hole", but we do know that extended use of antihistamines can lead to chronic sinusitis. (The theory is that mucous is being created to eliminate some perceived toxin in your sinus. When drugs dry the sinus, these toxins become imbedded, creating the chronic problem.)

You might experiment with a sodium ascorbate (vitamin C) nasal spray, as this may help heal and clean any wounds causing the sinusitis. Mix some sodium ascorbate with water or saline, and put it in a spray bottle. (For colds, it is estimated this raises the level of vitamin C in the sinuses a thousand times over what can be achieved with oral vitamin C.)

With all those antibiotics, I hope you are also taking a good probiotic to replenish the friendly flora (and it is probably a good idea to take vitamin K (K1 and/or K2). And you mentioned rinsing with vitamin C and baking soda - or you could rinse with sodium ascorbate. But have you considered rinsing with hydrogen peroxide, diluted, to attack the infections in your mouth?

My mother had rheumatoid arthritis, which she arrested but never conquered. It was her research trying to beat RA that also led her to vitamin C through Linus Pauling. She felt C provided the most relief

I do sinus rinses and get a temporary clearing for 5 minutes. I will purchase the Mag and Fenugreek and Thyme asap!!!! Thank you for your response.
