Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 So? Did the vitamin C WORK for the cancer or not? That should be the question. Talk about straying from the subject. Josephine Many health care workers are wary of giving high dose vitamin C to patients due to the warning that " one could develop kidney stones with high dose vitamin C. " The possibility of kidney stones does exist, theoretically, because vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is water soluble and is excreted by the kidneys as oxalic acid. Since most kidney stones consist of some form of oxalate, it would seem to follow, to some people, there must be kidney stones. In reality, this never happens. Another question comes to mind, why are there thousands of people with kidney stones who DO NOT take large doses of vitamin C? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
