Most animals make their own vitamin C except for primates including humans,

the guines pig, the fruit eating bat and a couple of others -- an ancestor

of ours lost the enzyme necessary to convert glucose to vitamin C -- probably

because that precursor to primates lived in an enviroment very rich in

vitamin C. Animals that make their own vitamin C do so in large quantities

relative to their weights and they make more under stress. On the basis of

animals that make their own, our needs are probably in the grams per day, not

milligrams and certainly more than the paltry 60 mg suggested as teh RDA.

Dear Peggy and all

 

First of all, thank you Peggy for all your effort and time, I'm learning so

much. I really appreciate your kind heart in sharing your knowledge with us.

My name is Elif and I live in Kathmandu. I teach Reiki, though not

professionally. I'm Turkish.

I need to send a crystal/stone to a leukemia patient as a present tomorrow.

Any ideas please? It's a 17 year old girl.
