Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hi all, About a year ago, I started to exchange my one coffee a day for a hot chocolate. I knew that dark chocolate was an excellent antioxidant, and I have always loved any candy that had chocolate, so I tried using the dark " baking " chocolate in the powder form. For some reason that I don't know , not being a chemist, milk reduces the antioxidant effect, so I didn't add milk. Being a diabetic, I didn't add sugar, but used 5 of the saccharin tablets for a large cup. I used a moderate " heaping " teaspoon, to it, and ran the hot water into the cup. I then mixed it with the spoon, and put it into the microwave for 55 seconds. (Yeah, I know about the microwave controversy, but I'm not convinced. You can of course heat your water in a pot on the stove if you want.) I then mixed it again, and I have become addicted to it. I now much prefer it to coffee, and there is no doubt that it is much healthier. Try it, and at least some of you will love it. It's one small step in healthier living. --- Here's my latest article: Colds, Flu, and Vaccines I've heard a " rumor " from three different, fairly reliable sources to the effect that a company in Switzerland that holds the patent on swine flu vaccine, actually and deliberately - MADE the H1N1 virus by mixing swine flu with older bird flu. Then to test it, they released it in Mexico. Many people around the world died as a result. It is now shown to be a hoax in effect with only 40% taking the vaccine. The purpose? To make many billions in profit by manufacturing the vaccine, and by licensing many other companies to do the same. If this " rumor " is true, that Big Pharma company is guilty of wholesale murder. Why is this not being investigated? I'm active in Alternate Health therapy, and get such stories, mostly true, and with the reputation of Big Pharma in that field being callous at the least, I tend to believe this rumor. Even Salk, who invented the polio vaccine, had doubts about vaccines. The use of preservatives that contain mercury has been proven to be a major cause of autism. By using vaccines for flu every year, this increases the amount of mercury in the general population. This adds further to the environmental toxic load in mothers, contributing further to autism. Vaccines may be worse for humans than the flu. This is especially true when there is a much cheaper, simpler and harmless alternative. Vitamin C! Big Pharma has consistently lied and denied the truth about vitamins, and their beneficial effects on various health problems. They have done this because simple vitamins are competitors to their profitable drugs. Actual employees of Big Pharma have done " peer reviewed " so-called studies of many vitamins, particularly vitamin C that supposedly " proved " that vitamin C is ineffective against colds and flu virus, as well as other viruses. How can this be? Simple, if you know how viruses and vitamin C work. First, you have to realize that the RDA is totally false in the " Recommended " amount of 75 mg (about one orange a day). We humans belong to the class of primates, along with the apes and monkeys, that lost an enzyme about 60 million years ago. Virtually all other animals still have this enzyme. This valuable enzyme is needed to manufacture ascorbic acid out of glucose (blood sugar). All other animals accordingly manufacture as much ascorbic acid as they need easily for whatever is necessary at the time. We primates can't do this, so we have to supply it from outside our bodies. In the zoo, the apes and monkeys are pretty expensive to get and to maintain, so the vets there have found that they require much more than the RDA for man of 75 mg per day. The formula for big apes is a minimum of 4000 mg for a 150 pound ape. Even that is not entirely correct, as it's a " fixed " quantity, and the actual amount needed in any day changes depending on many variables. That 4 grams is an average for the ape's continued good health. You may like to think that you are " better " than a 150 pound ape, but you have exactly the same manufacturing ability for ascorbic acid as he does. That's none at all. Smarter doesn't make ascorbic acid. The average person has come to think that if they get 75 mg of vitamin C, that's " good " for their health, and that's a major part of the problem. It's just not true. The 150 pound ape in the zoo is much healthier. Even the 4000 mg he gets might not be enough if he eats something loaded with bacteria, or he gets a virus. This idea we all seem to get from that " wrong " RDA is just false. The amount we need varies depending on what bacteria and virus get into our bodies, and what other stress needs vitamin C and other vitamins. A fixed amount may be too much one day and too little another. With most vitamins, too much has no problem, but too little does! Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), kills both bacteria and virus cells. That's scientific fact! How much vitamin C is needed depends on how many such " germs " are present in the bloodstream at any given time. Here's another fact. Virus multiplies in a binary way. They double every 20 minutes or so. By the time you feel any real symptoms, the virus or bacteria germs are pretty huge in number. If you delay only 1 hour in taking anything, they double three times and are 8 times what they were in one hour. And, even more important, it'll take 8 times as much vitamin C to kill these now. Eventually, your immune system may kick in and start killing the invaders, but you may go into coma and die before then. People do every year. Let's look at the simple math of an example case. Let's suppose that the virus has gotten up to 10,000 cells by the time you first feel the symptoms. You take 1 gram (1000 mg) of vitamin C. Let's suppose that this kills off 2500 of the virus cells before it's used up. This takes place in a few minutes, but for the example, we'll say that it takes 20 minutes. During that time, the other 7500 cells are doubling, and we now have 15,000 virus cells. If you delay and don't take more vitamin C for an hour, that 15.000 doubles twice more, and becomes 60,000, and you are still getting sicker. So, instead of " curing " your cold or flu, you slowed it down only a bit. From a potential of 80,000 cells, it was cut to 60,000. Could you tell the difference? Obviously, a " megadose " of vitamin C was " useless against a cold or virus. This is the kind of " scientific " test that Big Pharma has foisted off on medical journals for years. I hope that my readers are bright enough to see that the above example clearly shows that if you are fighting a virus or a major infection, much more vitamin C is needed to get control than most people realize. Because of the rapid growth of viruses, it is necessary to kill off more than half of what is now there to even begin to get ahead. By " proving " vitamin C is useless (and in a scientific paper in a Medical Journal) as above, they sell a lot more cough and cold medicine, let along vaccines! Because Big Pharma has made the general public " think " that 75 mg is " healthy " , then 1000 mg MUST be enough if it can do anything. That's totally wrong, as the above example shows, but it still sells a lot of drugs. The ONLY way to stop a virus infection is to really load up on vitamin C, and the sooner the better. How can you know if you've taken enough? It seems that if you take too much, your body gets rid of the excess by diarrhea. That's called " bowel tolerance " , and if you don't get diarrhea, you probably didn't get enough vitamin C initially. You need to at least get enough to kill off more than half with each dose, and stay ahead of the multiplying and you may kill off enough of a majority that the next couple of doses do the trick. Diarrhea isn't all that much fun, but it's not dangerous, and it's a good signal that you may have gotten the dose right. Here's another fact. There are dozens, perhaps hundreds of stories of people going into a coma from a viral flu, and given up for dying in the next few hours. Someone hitches up a 100 gram Sodium Ascorbate (vitamin C) liquid bag and starts intravenous injection. It can't hurt and may help. In several hours, that dying patient is out of the coma and recovering nicely. There are way too many stories of this type to ignore. How many children died in this latest " scare " of H1N1 because no one used the above therapy? Big Pharma is against it, because they don't make a profit out of vitamin C. Is Big Pharma collectively guilty of murder? Does the fact that drug advertising on radio and TV has doubled drug deaths prove this? I'm 82 years old, and in better health than many in their 60's. I have moderate emphysema from cigarettes (quit at 40), so any cold or flu is very dangerous to me. I start with 4-6 grams of vitamin C at the moment I even think I have symptoms -- a few coughs, or running nose or sneezes. I then take 4-6 grams every 15 minutes until I start to get diarrhea. At this point back off to 2-4 per hour. By the way, all my symptoms will have stopped, usually within the first hour. With cheap ascorbic acid from Walmart or Costco (about $17 for 500 one gram tablets), why pay for vaccines at $20 per shot? C is safer, faster, and cheaper! I also take 4 grams of this cheap vitamin C per day. There's another little known benefit. This amount gradually takes out toxic minerals that are slowly poisoning all of us in our current environment. Mercury has increased, as has arsenic in pesticides, and unless you reduce these toxins, they are gradually affecting you, even if you aren't aware of that. Vitamin C does this. My mineral analysis shows " immeasurable " levels of mercury and lead, and very low levels of all others. That's what cheap vitamin C does for me, and can do for you, and your family. -- Phil Bate PhD http://drbate.com - Free Alternate Health Advice Neuroliminal Training (NT) solves allergy stress causing mental problems ADD to Autism, Insomnia to depression & more Without dangerous/addictive drugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
