Guest guest Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 A few weeks ago, a friend of mine questioned the wisdom of my use of vitamin C to bowel tolerance. I have been busy & had no time to look back thru all of the vitamin C info I had gleaned from this list & posted into my online journal. Then Frank reposted exactly what I was looking for. Frank, you saved me many hours of work! When re-reading the material, I saw mention of Vitamin C to bowel tolerance used to treat Multiple Sclerosis. I have a friend with MS so I wanted more info. So I went to the site Frank gleaned the info from, looked around, and saw an e-mail button to write to Dr.Saul. He sent a form letter telling me I should do a web search. I did so & got back a zillion possibilities -- most of which were not really applicable, many of which were counter-productive, and the rest of which never gave the kind of info I was looking for. I would like to present to my friend some success stories of using vitamin C to bowel tolerance (or anything else!) to treat MS. If anyone has any web links, I would be most appreciative.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Anyone have any experience with taking Alacer Emergen-C? This can be taken in large doses since is in the form of Mineral Ascorbates so doesn't cause diarrhea in large doses. - " Alobar " <alobar Thursday, July 31, 2003 8:07 AM Re: Vit C > A few weeks ago, a friend of mine questioned the wisdom of my > use of vitamin C to bowel tolerance.

Without feedback from one's body, how does one determine the dose? c) Which minerals & in what ratio? d) What is the cost? Buying pure ascorbic acid in 3 pound jars, I am paying about $12/lb which works out to less than 3 cents a gram. Since my body wants me to take 20-30 grams a day, the cost is moderate. But if I were paying 10 cents a gram or higher, the cost increase would tempt me to cut back on what my body wants. And this, imo, would not be a good thing. Alobar Quote
