@@hpartsch There's nothing as _'non synthetic vitamin'_ .. you cannot put an aged cheese in a lab and tell them to isolate Menatetrenone (vitamin K2 ) from it .
And so are many people that never take any vitamin C, nor do they mind what they eat a lot. So it doesn't really mean anything for specific persons, but in general many people might have genetics that require it more. One problem with the ascorbic acid only version is that it competes with the complete vitamin for absorption, and the synthetic one is usually in much larger amounts.
Others, like me, don't have an ancestry DNA that requires or responds positively to high sugar fruits every day. Pineapples strawberries kiwis are all crazy high in sugar. Maybe if you're family history is from a tropical area that makes sense. Otherwise maybe an apple here and there or lemon. Except in the summer months have at it. Almost all dna enjoy that period of high fruit in their diet. Helps to add fiber fiber fiber
Vit C IV by patient weight is something my neurologist did as part of her surgical procedure because it noticeably super charged faster healing, obliterated swelling, and she had ZERO post op infections for 35 years! I wish all surgeons did this but pharma suppression therapy is all they know or care to know.... so sad.
Breast cancer for, treat with 10.000 mg intravenously and check out the results.

Vitamin C is actually the ascorbate ion. Ascorbic acid is the ascorbate ion paired with a hydrogen ion, so ascorbic acid is only one of a number of forms of vitamin C. Other common forms include sodium ascorbate, calcium ascorbate, etc. My preferred form is sodium ascorbate crystals I get from Bronson. At the onset of a cold/flu, I take very large doses of sodium ascorbate (usually 25-35 grams on the first day divided into hourly doses, approximately the dosage recommended by Linus Pauling in his book "How to Live Longer and Feel Better") and the cold/flu disappears rapidly. Also in treatment for cancer, the vitamin C used in IV is sodium ascorbate, not ascorbate acid (Cameron and Pauling, 1979, Cancer and Vitamin C).

@@experimenthealthyketo83 Thank you! I remember Dr. Grundy said that toxins are stored in our fats, so when losing weight, you need to do it slowly and I remember Dr. Berg said that when losing weight take some chlorophyl like spirulina so that you produce gluthathione to drive away those toxin. Thank you!
It depends on the individual properties of each, for instance I would take a probiotic away from food and on an empty stomach. Also some supplements are gonna be more 'energising' than others, so for instance I wouldn't take B vits, CoQ10 or iron at night - opt for the morning.
I had this problem with my gums splitting. All my doctor would say is "Use mouthwash". I tried everything. Then I watched Dr Bergs video on Vit C. I had been taking ascorbic acid. I switched to natural Vit C and my gums stopped splitting and are healing. I had scurvy.
Very informative Dr.Berg. I am actually blown away! as I've been misled with this synthetic form of vitamin C for years. I actually tried your advice on consuming the Whole Lemon - peel, pith, pips and all for a month. I've definitely noticed a difference in my health which I attribute to a more natural form of vitamin C.
Not just C... processed foods and standard grain flour etc are all enriched with synthetic B12 and synthetic folate as man made folic acid... poison to a dirty MTHFR gene metabolism. Dirty Gene's is a great book, enlightenment that matters bigly for a healthy and high quality of life. 60% of Western European's and Hispanics get hit with this. Other human genomes are at about 30%. Functional medicine treats this but pharmaceutical medicine mostly ignores it...other than MTHFR related miscarriages and pregnancy clotting or sugar problems.
I wash a lemon, deseed it, put it in my NutriBullet, skin and all with a small amount of water. Whirl it, refrigerate in a jar and add it to my water, tea, and meals. I try to use it within a few days to lessen the vitamin loss. It's a way of getting the complex nutrition from a lemon. And so easy to do.
Love the ways of your sounds, expertise, the way you explaining, the voices. It’s calming it’s not forcing. Certainly not irritating in my ear 🙏 Because some other it’s sooo irritating that I must stop watching the video. Thank you 🙏
Dr Berg, as usual I love everything you do. As the millions know, you are well read. It there any way you can have a list (maybe on your website) off books you recommend? I know I will be reading most if not all of them. Please 🙏
Hello Dr. BERG. I was wondering about sodium ascorbate. Is it the same as ascorbate acid in supplements? Also what is your recommendation for dosage? And thank you so much for all the wisdom you share here! :)
Vitamin C high dosage main role in the body would be tissue regeneration. It is involved in tendon, bone and skin synthesis. So I would argue that higher dosage does have an important benefit.
At first, I took 500 mg per day of vitamin c but then I saw a yt video about a study made with vitamin c, they took between 2000 and 3000 mg 4 times per day because apparently, the good stuff peaks after 2½ hours in your body (something noone has ever told me) so now I'm eating 2000 mg with every meal so I'm eating between 6000 and 8000 mg per day, and I definitely now see a difference on my skin, it's become more glowing/brown ish making me look more healthy for sure.
@@orion9k I see a huge difference too in my skin and my joints consuming about 1500mg daily from food and supplements. Never consumed those higher doses you talk about, but I definitely see a difference.
High dosage does but the point is where and how it is sourced. The main argument in the video is that synthetic vitamin C through the human manufacturing process is sufficiently less dense and can have trace toxins due to the extraction from corn. Corn is one of the most heavily polluted crops out there and just as food in general loses its nutritional value during processing so can the vitamins not derived from Whole Foods. You may indeed be fine and want a higher dosage but that doesn’t mean your body will absorb it, use it, and excrete it the same way it does with natural/organic (I know there’s a difference but this context should be simple) plants, vegetables, and fruits
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing your wealth of knowledge! I have a few health problems that are not going away with my Dr and Hospitals help. (I feel they haven’t got to the route cause and just give medication to cover up symptoms) going to follow your advice and hopefully I can heal myself 🤩 Health and Happiness to you Dr Berg and everyone else who sees this ❤

100% My wife and I have been using Camu Camu (plant based vitamin C) The fruit and leaves of this plan are used as medicine to boost immunity. The BEST part is when you're starting to or feeling sick you can take 5 to 7 whole grams of Camu Camu and it has NEVER gave me or anyone I know an upset stomach.

*_I've been wondering if not eating this might solve all worries about Vitamin C-but maybe only 2-3 grams daily:_* *_"The Kakadu Plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is an Australian native superfood containing 100 times more Vitamin C than oranges"._* *_It has the highest known concentration of Vitamin C, containing up to 2,907 mg per 100 grams"._* *_Yes, a plum has sugars, but 16-17% sugar of 2 grams is not that much sugar.

But if it's as much as 50%, these plums still pack a lot of Vitamin C._* *_Then again, cooking the Kakadu plum only reduced the Vitamin C by 17%.

You're so great 🙂 anytime I'm questioning info I'm reading, I come see if you have a video on it. I don't have to wonder if your supplements are high quality or if they work. I had bacterial meningitis and was very sick and in the hospital for months and all the antibiotics and everything just ruined everything about eating and digestion. I went strict GF and low fodmap, no sugar at all for over a year along with other things to balance my gut and heal the stomach lining and replacing good bacteria, etc. No prescriptions. I'm happy to say that I'm almost back to normal and trying to maintain what is "fixed" while I figure out the last couple of issues and your information has really helped me SO much. I just ordered your vitamin C and adrenal support and don't have to question the quality so thank you 😊
But Dr. Berg , ascorbic acid is synthesized from glucose by animals that can produce it endogenously, so why would that be an issue? We are just missing the last enzyme L gulunolactone oxidase.

I’m glad you didn’t totally demonize ascorbic acid and you said it has its place. I cured hepatitis C with ascorbic acid with rose hips in one day with 1,000 mg every 10-15 minutes until I felt bloated. My bloodwork came back as having antibodies but no active virus.
Linus Pauling, 2 time Noble prize winner, pioneering advocate of ascorbic acid, publisher of thousands of papers, numerous books on AA. Read and research my friends.
I think a lot of the population can and is eager to learn how to take care of ourselves because it is rewarding in every way. But after addictions to junk food and depleted energy from a life time of eating the wrong things, not to mention all the false information on health that is taught to us and unreliable doctors, it can become a big hump to get over. All I mostly ate was processed and synthetic foods, now I find myself having to learn the basics later on in life and I am grateful that my body was able to put up with so much.
Vitamin C is extremely effective in almost any infection, be it viral or bacterial. Only the quantities have to be in grams! Eg 5 grams every 30 minutes. Here I recommend the book "A brief collection of unknown facts about vitamins and minerals" by Dr. Doumenach for those interested. Also great books of Dr Levy on Vit C. Greetings!
I hate that there's so much conflicting, mixed info around the use of ascorbic acid. All the testimonials made me want to try it & I finally caved in after tons of research. I literally have some on the way in the mail as I type this comment LOL. In my research I found that l-ascorbic acid was the form that was more absorbable & usable & raised blood serum levels of vitamin C, so I purchased that form. Was really hard to find a label that specified having l-asorbic acid in the ingredients and no filler. So I wonder if it's a common form and how it differs from the liposomal vitamin C everyone talks about and reccomends on forums. But I wonder if all the testimonials are just placebo effects then? Im still watching this video though so not sure if he addresses it.
Very enlightening! I use high doses as a laxative as it’s the only substance that gives me guaranteed results. I will be sure to contact the producer to find out if maltodextrin has been used in the drying or packaging process.
I notice no mention of liposomal vitamin c. I take a complex of ascorbyl palmitate, calcium ascorbate, cetyl ascorbate, sunflower lecithin and phosphatidylcholine. Is that considered different and more absorbable in getting the intended benefits of vitamin C vs just ascorbic acid?
I used liposomal vitamin C for ages but when I got ill, I only noticed a benefit when I took 3000mg of quali C powder. Now I no longer bother with liposomal vitamin C. In my experience straight ascorbic acid is superior. This was the same when comparing natural sources of vitamin C too. Ascorbic acid was superior to all of them. I still mix in Camu Camu and Acerola to my shakes though, but I would not rely on that for a viral infection.
@@mreverybody1150 - I agree! 1 gram of Ascorbic acid daily got rid of some pre-cancers (metaplasias) in my stomach that had been there for a decade. It only took 2 months. I maintain it by taking 500 mgs. of C daily plus 2 grams L-glutamine powder in H20 on an empty stomach when my tummy is upset. The research was Chinese and said that it had to dissolve in your stomach, so you don't want buffered or time release, just the cheap stuff.
This is why I literally eat a WHOLE LEMON: peel and all. Freeze a bag of lemons, take one out the freezer, grate it, put the gratings in a cup, add three or four cups of water then add honey to dull the bitterness. It’s a Vit. C bomb.
Good idea! Do you eat a whole lemon everyday? Do you drink the 3-4 cups a day of the grated lemon a day or spread it out over a few days? Thanks for the tip!
hi take 5/6 whole lemons, cut them into small chunks and put them in the freezer..(i cut up 20 lemons for the month put them in a freezer bag and freez them when you want take a couple of cups of freezin lemons out,... put them in the blender make a slush. take 2 tablespoons put the rest in the fridge will last over a week.. and so much easier to take.. put in mouth and swallow..easy!!!

Even if soils are depleted as many say fresh fruit bananas, oranges, kiwis, berries are still best for vitamin c ,even if you have to eat a few more fruits due to low nutrients in even organic soil fruits , vegetables ect
Love ❤ Doctor Berg . He is keeping us healthy & happy 😊
Right on! Thanks for the feedback!
Dr. Berg, please, can you make a video on how to detox from plastic, since this generation is polluted with plastic, from the foods we eat to the environment we live in. Thank you Dr. Berg.
Yes, he made a few videos on this. I sugest healthy fats to replace one's body fats with since toxins get stored in fatty tissues.
@@experimenthealthyketo83 Thank you! I remember Dr. Grundy said that toxins are stored in our fats, so when losing weight, you need to do it slowly and I remember Dr. Berg said that when losing weight take some chlorophyl like spirulina so that you produce gluthathione to drive away those toxin. Thank you!
@@arseniaventura4057 Exactly! Welcome!
Can you take most or all quality supplements together? For example: D3, K2, S-acetyl L-Glutathione, C, A, B1, Omega 3, Zinc, Probiotic and CoQ10
I believe so, yes. As always too, it's much better to take them with food.
It depends on the individual properties of each, for instance I would take a probiotic away from food and on an empty stomach. Also some supplements are gonna be more 'energising' than others, so for instance I wouldn't take B vits, CoQ10 or iron at night - opt for the morning.
Thanks dr Eric berg. ..from you, you give me knowledge about my health.. you are the best...
Thank you very much for this video ❤
Most welcome!
WOW DR. Berg, I didn't even realize this, thank you for the information here. I know I appreciate this very much. It's good to know.
I had this problem with my gums splitting. All my doctor would say is "Use mouthwash". I tried everything. Then I watched Dr Bergs video on Vit C. I had been taking ascorbic acid. I switched to natural Vit C and my gums stopped splitting and are healing. I had scurvy.
thats because copper enhance vit c absortion
Wow 😯
What forms of natural vitamin c
@@SeriouSXXFireworks Dr Berg mentioned sauerkraut as being some of the most efficient form of vitamin c because it’s very high.
I use organic Camu Camu powder in my morning smoothies as the berries are rich in Vitamin C. Throwing an extra option out there ☺️
Good information . . THANKS a lot dear DOCTOR
Wow. Looking good, Dr. Berg.
Very informative Dr.Berg. I am actually blown away! as I've been misled with this synthetic form of vitamin C for years. I actually tried your advice on consuming the Whole Lemon - peel, pith, pips and all for a month. I've definitely noticed a difference in my health which I attribute to a more natural form of vitamin C.
Not just C... processed foods and standard grain flour etc are all enriched with synthetic B12 and synthetic folate as man made folic acid... poison to a dirty MTHFR gene metabolism. Dirty Gene's is a great book, enlightenment that matters bigly for a healthy and high quality of life. 60% of Western European's and Hispanics get hit with this. Other human genomes are at about 30%. Functional medicine treats this but pharmaceutical medicine mostly ignores it...other than MTHFR related miscarriages and pregnancy clotting or sugar problems.
His Vitamin C supplement is incredibly expensive. And he won't answer when I asked him if he product is from China
Did you contribute your health to the synthetic vitamin c when your were taking it?
I hope you used organic lemons, as the fruit peels absorb pesticides that are sprayed on them.
@@davidfeyler5489 I got my vitamin C from the Health Ranger, and it's not from China. A little expensive, but worth it in the long run.
I wish I could figure out what vitamin C to take ?!!?!
Dr Berg has a food-based Vitamin C supplement. I haven't tried it but you can look into it.
How about just consuming foods high in Vitamin C?
I wash a lemon, deseed it, put it in my NutriBullet, skin and all with a small amount of water. Whirl it, refrigerate in a jar and add it to my water, tea, and meals. I try to use it within a few days to lessen the vitamin loss. It's a way of getting the complex nutrition from a lemon. And so easy to do.
Thank you for being so open.
We appreciate your comment.

Love the ways of your sounds, expertise, the way you explaining, the voices. It’s calming it’s not forcing. Certainly not irritating in my ear 🙏 Because some other it’s sooo irritating that I must stop watching the video. Thank you 🙏
Very useful information. Thank you Dr. Berg. I learned and pharmacies will not get my money that spend on vitamins. Again, thank you.
No problem. Glad you like the information here.
Organic acerola cherry derived Vit C is what I've used for years. Fixes me and the kiddos up real quick...along with lots of D3-K2.
What about Liposomal Vit C??? Is this a better form to be taking???
It increases absorption
Very informative Dr berg, thank you for the love nd care towards our health♥️✅
I really appreciate you saying so :)
Sipping on warm lemon water now. My first drink every morning during my fasting period.😊
Awesome video yet again! Thanks Dr Berg!
Apart from the fact that he completely ignores all of the studies proving the exact opposite of what he said...
@@mreverybody1150 Please, would you provide links to those studies? Thanks kindly.
Dr Berg, as usual I love everything you do. As the millions know, you are well read. It there any way you can have a list (maybe on your website) off books you recommend? I know I will be reading most if not all of them. Please 🙏
Cool idea!
Hello Dr. BERG. I was wondering about sodium ascorbate. Is it the same as ascorbate acid in supplements? Also what is your recommendation for dosage?
And thank you so much for all the wisdom you share here! :)
thank you Dr.BERG
Learning lots thank you homie
Vitamin C high dosage main role in the body would be tissue regeneration. It is involved in tendon, bone and skin synthesis. So I would argue that higher dosage does have an important benefit.
At first, I took 500 mg per day of vitamin c but then I saw a yt video about a study made with vitamin c, they took between 2000 and 3000 mg 4 times per day because apparently, the good stuff peaks after 2½ hours in your body (something noone has ever told me) so now I'm eating 2000 mg with every meal so I'm eating between 6000 and 8000 mg per day, and I definitely now see a difference on my skin, it's become more glowing/brown ish making me look more healthy for sure.
@@orion9k I see a huge difference too in my skin and my joints consuming about 1500mg daily from food and supplements. Never consumed those higher doses you talk about, but I definitely see a difference.
High dosage does but the point is where and how it is sourced. The main argument in the video is that synthetic vitamin C through the human manufacturing process is sufficiently less dense and can have trace toxins due to the extraction from corn. Corn is one of the most heavily polluted crops out there and just as food in general loses its nutritional value during processing so can the vitamins not derived from Whole Foods. You may indeed be fine and want a higher dosage but that doesn’t mean your body will absorb it, use it, and excrete it the same way it does with natural/organic (I know there’s a difference but this context should be simple) plants, vegetables, and fruits
What kind did Paul Linus use? And he said your liver needs 3000 mg daily just for normal function.
IMO - you are 100% correct but I would always advise clients to take alongside Vit P.
I really respect Dr. Berg as the prophet of medical and nutritions ,he's truth !.🙏👍🙌
Thanks Dr. Berg. Just ordered the immune booster kit and signed up.

Thanks for your positive feedback!
There had been hundreds of studies going way back that ascorbic acid has many benefits so I really don’t know what he’s talking about
Ha Doc ive been using vit C for years now, and i use vit c with Calcium Ascorbate , not Ascorbic Acid , is it a safer more beneficial choice , looking forward to your response , Cheers
100% My wife and I have been using Camu Camu (plant based vitamin C) The fruit and leaves of this plan are used as medicine to boost immunity. The BEST part is when you're starting to or feeling sick you can take 5 to 7 whole grams of Camu Camu and it has NEVER gave me or anyone I know an upset stomach. Camu Camu is one of the best forms of vitamin C since it is a plant. Dr Berg, your product looks brilliant!!!
Whole World Botanicals Royal Camu Camu is what we use.
YES, you are absolutely RIGHT! 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Doctor ! You are the best !♥️♥️
Thanks for enlightrening me. Fortunately I stopped taking vitamin supplaments long ago as I suffered from side-effects pain, allergies. God protected me.
*_I've been wondering if not eating this might solve all worries about Vitamin C-but maybe only 2-3 grams daily:_*
*_"The Kakadu Plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is an Australian native superfood containing 100 times more Vitamin C than oranges"._*
*_It has the highest known concentration of Vitamin C, containing up to 2,907 mg per 100 grams"._*
*_Yes, a plum has sugars, but 16-17% sugar of 2 grams is not that much sugar. It also has 7% fiber._*
*_Some break down the nutritional value in another way, where they claim it's 3,230% of the Daily Value of Vitamin C._*
*_I think these differences might just be immense confusion of being used to calculating in human feet and teacups vs the Metric system where one thinks in "100's"._*
*_Let's just agree on "about 3,000% of DV". Mind you, this is right off the tree. These plums are picked washed and frozen for export, it's rare to find them raw at a food store._*
*_Freezing fruit destroys some Vitamin C. But if it's as much as 50%, these plums still pack a lot of Vitamin C._*
*_Then again, cooking the Kakadu plum only reduced the Vitamin C by 17%. I would have guess up to 90% reduction, there might be more to this superfruit._*
*Kakadu Plum*
100grams or "3.5 oz."
(For every 100grams, with 17.2grams being sugar=17.2% sugar. I'm not sure how many hens or yards that is)
Calories: 59
Protein: 0.8 grams
Carbs: 17.2 grams
Dietary fiber: 7.1 grams
Fat: 0.5 grams
Sodium: 13 mg
*Vitamin C: 3,230% of the Daily Value (DV)*
Copper: 100% of the DV
Iron: 13.3% of the DV
*_Kakadu Plums also has the normal trace amounts of magnesium, potassium, thiamine, riboflavin, zinc, and calcium._*
*_The plums also have ellagic and gallic acid, anthocyanins, lutein, flavonols and more._*
*_The leaves of this plant also hold some magic, but I forget what. A tea is commonly made from the leaves and is by many considered "medicinal"._*
Edit for spelling
I believe it is very expensive, though
In the morning, I squeeze one organic lemon and combine it with two tablespoons of ACV. I also make sure I rinse my mouth with water afterwards!
You are right on! Thank you for the work you do.
You are very welcome.
@@Drberg Dr. Berg, please consider doing a video on peptide BPC 157
You're so great 🙂 anytime I'm questioning info I'm reading, I come see if you have a video on it. I don't have to wonder if your supplements are high quality or if they work. I had bacterial meningitis and was very sick and in the hospital for months and all the antibiotics and everything just ruined everything about eating and digestion. I went strict GF and low fodmap, no sugar at all for over a year along with other things to balance my gut and heal the stomach lining and replacing good bacteria, etc. No prescriptions. I'm happy to say that I'm almost back to normal and trying to maintain what is "fixed" while I figure out the last couple of issues and your information has really helped me SO much. I just ordered your vitamin C and adrenal support and don't have to question the quality so thank you 😊
That's wonderful! Thanks for your support - I'm so glad to help.
amazing health update videos !!! 💯
But Dr. Berg , ascorbic acid is synthesized from glucose by animals that can produce it endogenously, so why would that be an issue? We are just missing the last enzyme L gulunolactone oxidase.
the beard lookin really nice dr.

I just wanna thank you dr berg.your video are really helpful❤💚
I’m glad you didn’t totally demonize ascorbic acid and you said it has its place. I cured hepatitis C with ascorbic acid with rose hips in one day with 1,000 mg every 10-15 minutes until I felt bloated. My bloodwork came back as having antibodies but no active virus.

Wow 🤩 nice. Thanks for sharing.
All of Dr. Linus Pauling's research, ALL OF IT, was done taking ascorbic acid.
I think a lot of the population can and is eager to learn how to take care of ourselves because it is rewarding in every way. But after addictions to junk food and depleted energy from a life time of eating the wrong things, not to mention all the false information on health that is taught to us and unreliable doctors, it can become a big hump to get over. All I mostly ate was processed and synthetic foods, now I find myself having to learn the basics later on in life and I am grateful that my body was able to put up with so much.
Vitamin C is extremely effective in almost any infection, be it viral or bacterial. Only the quantities have to be in grams! Eg 5 grams every 30 minutes. Here I recommend the book "A brief collection of unknown facts about vitamins and minerals" by Dr. Doumenach for those interested. Also great books of Dr Levy on Vit C. Greetings!
I may confirm. I overcome Covid taking huge amounts of vitamin C. Almost 45 grams a day.
You mean Ascorbic Acid?
@@bettyshar9998 yes, simple Ascorbic acid.
I hate that there's so much conflicting, mixed info around the use of ascorbic acid. All the testimonials made me want to try it & I finally caved in after tons of research. I literally have some on the way in the mail as I type this comment LOL. In my research I found that l-ascorbic acid was the form that was more absorbable & usable & raised blood serum levels of vitamin C, so I purchased that form. Was really hard to find a label that specified having l-asorbic acid in the ingredients and no filler. So I wonder if it's a common form and how it differs from the liposomal vitamin C everyone talks about and reccomends on forums.
But I wonder if all the testimonials are just placebo effects then? Im still watching this video though so not sure if he addresses it.
5 g every 30 minutes...do you think it's natural??? Any time in our evolution we have been doing so? Our body are used to this habit?
Camu Camu is also high in vitamin C. I think I'll take some of mines and put it in capsules and take those.😊
It can burn your tummy if you take it straight :)
Yahweh is on the way.
@@Robin-mj6jv YHWH
I make my own liquid liposomal Vitamin C from Camu Camu and Sunflower lecithin (adding distilled water and vodka).

My pleasure!
I heard Camu Camu is a natural fruit high in vitamin C. you can buy them in capsule form.
YES, you ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. I use the powder, it’s not so bad. But they DO have it in caps form at health food stores. (at Sprout’s)
The more I watch Dr. Eric Berg, the more I learn that we are all *_Corn based_*
Dr. Oz really made a mistake by not having you on his show. You are a treasure on this earth.
Do you mean that FAKE doc trying to run for Senate of Pa?
Precious scientific information by Dr.Berg. So useful for people...
Wow,once again,thank you!😁🙋♀️🥰
Anytime!
Very enlightening! I use high doses as a laxative as it’s the only substance that gives me guaranteed results. I will be sure to contact the producer to find out if maltodextrin has been used in the drying or packaging process.
I notice no mention of liposomal vitamin c. I take a complex of ascorbyl palmitate, calcium ascorbate, cetyl ascorbate, sunflower lecithin and phosphatidylcholine. Is that considered different and more absorbable in getting the intended benefits of vitamin C vs just ascorbic acid?
I used liposomal vitamin C for ages but when I got ill, I only noticed a benefit when I took 3000mg of quali C powder. Now I no longer bother with liposomal vitamin C. In my experience straight ascorbic acid is superior. This was the same when comparing natural sources of vitamin C too. Ascorbic acid was superior to all of them. I still mix in Camu Camu and Acerola to my shakes though, but I would not rely on that for a viral infection.
@@mreverybody1150 - I agree! 1 gram of Ascorbic acid daily got rid of some pre-cancers (metaplasias) in my stomach that had been there for a decade. It only took 2 months. I maintain it by taking 500 mgs. of C daily plus 2 grams L-glutamine powder in H20 on an empty stomach when my tummy is upset. The research was Chinese and said that it had to dissolve in your stomach, so you don't want buffered or time release, just the cheap stuff.
This is why I literally eat a WHOLE LEMON: peel and all. Freeze a bag of lemons, take one out the freezer, grate it, put the gratings in a cup, add three or four cups of water then add honey to dull the bitterness. It’s a Vit. C bomb.
That's an interesting idea...
Lemon skin is full of pesticides, avoid eating it unless you grown it.
Honey is sugar. Dr. Berg just stated sugar inhibits absorption of vitamin C.
Good idea! Do you eat a whole lemon everyday? Do you drink the 3-4 cups a day of the grated lemon a day or spread it out over a few days? Thanks for the tip!
hi take 5/6 whole lemons, cut them into small chunks and put them in the freezer..(i cut up 20 lemons for the month put them in a freezer bag and freez them when you want take a couple of cups of freezin lemons out,... put them in the blender make a slush. take 2 tablespoons put the rest in the fridge will last over a week.. and so much easier to take.. put in mouth and swallow..easy!!!
Thanks for educating us.....have a great day
It's my pleasure. Glad you liked the post!
