Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 and that is totally false. Unlike large doses of bad drugs used on a prolonged basis (like Lipitor) that can kill people, large doses of vitamin c actually saves lives and DOES NOT cause heart attacks. My mom said she heard on the radio yesterday that large doses of vitamin C are harmful and can cause heart attacks and other problems. .

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Hi Ruth, I wouldn't doubt that your Mother heard this on the radio but doesn't mean it's true.Lot of the media pickup on stories for hipe not fact.Pharm.Co. have a big influnce on many station and feed them misinformation.If you ever looking at a study, be sure to see who is sponsoring the study . Some of these studies are waited to assure a specific results . Iv'e personally seen people avoid CABG and unclogging their arteries by following Linus Pauling's protocol. 6-18g of vit.C ( at lease500mg every 4hr. alf life for vit.C is 30min.) and 6-18g of lysine a day. Since Pauling Institute start treating people in the late " 60 " there has not been one death from anyone using these.Neigther vit.C nor lysine have shown any negative side effects at high doses. Think about this among the great apes ,in the wild they consume 2-4g of vit.C a day. Our ancestors diet had about 3g of vit.C a day . Does it really make any sense to believe 60mg. of vit.C a day is anough.(Note the great apes in the zoo only get block arteries when their diet is low in vit.C.

I tried to search it and found nothing except the article I sent in about certain vitamins causing prostate cancer. Has anyone heard anything about vitamin C in the last few days? I get so confused with all this. I thought vitamin C was good in mega doses. So is it healthy or is it going to kill us, lol. ~~Ruth~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
