Loved the rant. That'll teach them.... p-hacking their way into the literature... Not on your watch. :) As an endurance runner, I'm very interested whether you found any studies that compared supplementation to food sources with similar resulting plasma levels (orobably only feasible with bell peppers and kiwifruit). Especially in the blunting of the hormetic effect of the training.
What about all the different types of oral vitamin c? Are they made all equal and if not which one should be used? Buffered forms such as Sodium/Calcium/Magnesium/Zinc/etc Ascorbate vs ascorbic acid?
Wonderful presentation. Vitamin C saved my friend's life. He had rectal cancer, which he treated with IV C 50 grams 3 days a week + full extract cannabis oil. After over a year of treatment his recent PET scan revealed no evidence of cancer anywhere in his body
having followed you for a while, i see you are blessed with a thirst for knowledge. I have followed Orthomolecular medicine for over 20 years and in those 20 or so years, I have not been sick once! I do 15 grams of Vit C and 2 grams of Niacin every day. I do not eat fast food, I cook. God Bless and Gods Speed
You must be taking it every hour on the hour then. It is water soluble so I guess it is doing good things without causing anything but lots of peeing. Whatever works for you!
@@Danboi. In average I take a teaspoon 2x a day. Mostly mixed with a third amount of natruim bi carbonate (in USA known as Hammer backing powder). It tastes better and possibly works better I heard. Is it called ascorbate? Not more peeing than normal. No diarrea. I feel much better. Regular stool, soft instead of hard.
@@MrBoese1 In a one hour chemicaly centered lecture I learned that 2g is required to cope with the typical amount of poisons jn food and the environment.
1:13:15 A person that supplemented vitamin C can expect a kidney stone every 323 years whereas a person who did not supplement with vitamin C can expect it every 613 years. Well, that answers MY question. Thank you Rhonda for your wonderful work.
@@williamwilson7857 hello William, check out Dr. Thomas Levy and his work on liposomal vitamin C (vitamin C that is incased in a lipid) this C can be taken at much higher doses than regular C without gastric upsets and more C gets into our cells, via the lipid that surrounds it. This would be in place of having an IV. There are clinics that have popped up that administer IV C, and you might also check into a DO, Dr. of Osteopath, or a holistic healthcare provider for IV administration of vitamin C.
@@stephaniechaffee6269 I take Livon labs liposomal vitamin C , there soya lecithin in it.... Do you think it could be bad as sometime I take up too 15 grams a Day... I suffer from diverticulitis and I use It to fight infection
I took 30-40,000 mg of C daily for a couple of years to reverse systemic inflammation and heart issues. I took 3-4 grams per hour for 10 hours each day without reaching bowel tolerance. At the beginning, it was 4 grams per hour. After about a year, 4g was loosening my stool, so I dropped to 3 per hour. I'm now back and healthy and my maximum per day is 10-12g before hitting bowel tolerance.
@@evelina.amazonAtGmail Liposomal C works intracellularly and regular C extracellularly. Yes, liposomal, a true liposome, is absorbed via the cell membranes and bypasses the digestive system. However, a dose of regular oral C that causes diarrhea just means you've taken more at one time than the body can absorb and use. Normally, the sicker you are the higher the dose you can take without reaching bowel tolerance as Antony Reed's post shows.
Um, you do know there's more to health than the dosage of a single supplement, right? ^^ Interesting anecdote, with proper application, as I've heard other anecdotes for systemic / brain inflammation (brain fog).

It's an outstanding presentation by Dr. Rhonda Patrick. Extremely beneficial and informative. Many many thanks to Dr. Rhonda Patrick for her mindboggling presentation. This invaluable knowledge can save millions of people' lives. Please keep it up.
Regarding tolerance, see Robert Cathcart's articles indicating that human tolerance rises dramatically when ill, suggesting that the body needs and utilizes vitamin C during illness. I'm curious to know your opinion here.
if that was true then linus paulings , his wife , and their doctors needs would of went through the roof as all three of them died from cancer pretty close to one another. Oh btw, did you know that those three people were three first proponents of the idea of megadosing artificial vitamins C made by big pharma? Yes I know, he lived to 93, that's what you are gong to tell me right? Uy, sometimes I just get frustrated by how clueless people seem...sorry for seeming jaded :)
TAKE NATURAL vitamins in NATURAL quantities as best you can, has billions of advocates over thousands of years for this COMMON SENSE approach...doing what modern society is doing with these essentially FAKE (synthetic) vitamins is butchery to nutrition on a mass scale.
@@alal792 stop pushing natural only nonsense. animals make ascorbic acid from their livers. Ascorbic acid is what prevents from scurvy. vitamin C complex you guys always talk about is good for general use. it wont do a thing when you are in a critical condition. disregarding the mega dose use of synthetic vitamin C is stupid and antiscience.

@@mckiernankerry2185 , can't remember when or what it was she said, that rung alarm bells with me...I think it was something on the cerveza sickness. She's certainly talking BS on diet/nutrition. No need at all for taking any supplements (well, some minerals maybe in order to get rid of oxalates depending on your previous diet). People just need proper nutrition...and that means cutting out carbs altogether. Always the same...do your own research...the evidence is overwhelming. I find this gives you a good start: th-cam.com/video/j1cqNDDG4aA/w-d-xo.html. Good people/doctors to check out: Paul Mason, Ken Berry, Dr Baker, Elizabeth Bright, Bart Kay, Sally K Norton. Sure, if you tried it out yourself you'll learn how amazingly well your body functions if you're not poisoned on a permanent basis and if your hormones aren't screwed up at least to some extent.
Simply amazing Dr. Rhonda your research is brilliant. Thank you so very much for this video sharing it to the world. God bless! Peace be with you and take care. Again million thanks!
Does anyone else follow Linus Pauling's thinking on megadosing vitamin C? I was surprised to find David Sinclair mentioning his practices (along with the lovely Rhonda Patrick - by name!) in his recent book.
Can you expand a bit more? I haven't followed Linus Pauling's thinking on this and would like to know what useful information you may have gathered from your reading. Thanks!
Daniel Chiriff My personal advise is to read the book “Vitamin C: The Real Story” by Steve Hickey PhD & Andrew W Saul PhD (who has many more books) as Dr Pauling work is somewhat revealed in it. I have this book as “worth knowing about” in my own book, send me a message if you’d like it. But I really like Dr Patrick and her “no nonsense” approach, so much so, that I referenced one of her other subjects in my own book FYI.
i find myself now singing the beach boys song, help me rhonda, help help me rhonda! This women and her team are legends. I used to just download music, wow, how that has changed, music is medicine, no doubt, but science stuff is my new addiction!
At age 71 and cold virus free for over 10 years I put this down to vitamin C and other supplements. Good detailed information is hard to find. Thank you Dr. Patrick, for this excellent presentation.

Countless People to have Longer and Healthier Lives. You All have put So Much into All This.... and Other.... Keep Shining with the Beauty and Uniqueness that is You.

Thank you Rhonda this was excellent. Unfortunately many of the studies you say are needed will never happen because big pharma can't patent Vitamin C so no profit = no studies. In fact any evidence of its effectiveness will be squashed because they would lose billions because vitamin C would make many of their toxic drugs unnecessary. I salute you for getting the word out on Vitamin C in an honest manner.
There's nothing stopping the Vitamin C manufacturers from pooling their money to fund studies. Unless they prefer a world where people will take it without proof and make up stories about why there are no studies. Also, there's nothing particular to Vitamin C stopping universities from publishing papers on Vitamin C. Also, "quashed." Oranges are squashed.
That’s not true. Academic medical centers, and many private groups or hospitals, run studies all the time that are not funded by pharmaceutical companies. Human research is somewhat tedious to perform due to the regulations, approval process, and training involved. This is not a bad thing but it does mean that research can be slow and a single study may take years to complete.
@@darkpatches I would like to agree with you... I feel pharmaceutical companies have a cozy relationship with Universities.. I suspect, to get proper studies completed, will require someone to run a go-fund-me page and pay for some research centre cold hard cash... to get the results and findings published
it's amazing how many times i have to address this. Linus killed himself and both his doctor and wife with his advice. THEY all three died of cancer from cramming as much artificial/synthetic vitamin C into their mouths as they could until it started coming out there feces. They expected this strange idea would bring them natural miracle like health...each of them looked very ill while they were passing using this concept...now thousands, maybe even millions follow their concepts....Linus even sped his damage up with urine therapy. Take natural vitamins (food matrix etc) in NATURAL amounts, has worked for many thousands of years, and is the number one recommended way...REMEMBER BASICS, and connect the dots, case histories of all those 3 I just mentioned PROVE what caused their demise...now how come big pharma didn't tell you about this? Oh they sell MOST of the artificial vitamin C...well of coarse.
@@bluetrinityhaloseven7244 Wow, what a speil. You should do some real research and see just how long Vit C has been used for curing all sorts of conditions, (almost 100 years now), including cancer, and how many case histories, studies and evidence there is.Your knowledge on foods and vitamin C is terribly lacking and outdated. Knowledge is your friend.

I just thought I'd offer this, that is what happened to me today. 2 days ago I felt a cold coming on. The back of my throat got a bit tender, that's how I know when I'm getting a cold. I bought a bottle of vitamin C 500mg tablets, and started taking 2 tablets 3 to 4 times Thursday, Friday and as well as today. I'm going to a kidney specialist come the 21st of December. I'v seen a lot of foam in my urine but today 3 times I'v urinated and the result was. 1st time no foam 2nd time some bubbles but quickly dissipated 3rd time also some bubbles and quickly dissipated again. This had not been the case for the last couple of months that I've noticed the foam in my urine. I found it interesting so I went looking on TH-cam about vitamin C. I came across this video and figured I'd share what im experiencing. I plan on telling the kidney specialist when I see him. Hope you find this interesting. PS. Just went again still the same but 1 important thing I forgot to include my urine was a dark yellow but now it just has a yellow tint to it. It's a huge difference in just a short period of time. I'm talking 24 to 48 hrs. Anyway had to add this as well.
Certain vitamin supplements, as well as certain medications and foods can cause you to have brighter yellow urine.. And sometimes being dehydrated can cause this to happen as well.But, to be on the safe side I'm glad you are seeing a specialist... Hope you are doing well!

also linus pauling, wife, and their GP doctor all died from megadosing synthetic big pharma (so called) vitamin C...all from cancer within a few years of each other. These of coarse were the first proponents of this concept...and became the first three case histories of what taking such a product in such enormous amounts WILL do to the body. In the short term it kills a few virals due to the oxidation reaction with iron that releases free radicals, yet of coarse this will lead to massive cancer formations down the road...very poor way to do medicine OR science, yet we all know how many fans of such a dastardly big business big pharma idea such has today!
You might mention that Dr. Pauling was a two time Nobel Prize winner...the only person to have done that. He wasn't just some neighborhood G.P. dabbling in science.
as an extreme fan of Linus, I will nevertheless point out the mighty British sequencing genius who won 2 Nobel prizes. See if you can discover his name . . .
Extraordinary presentation. So very detailed and comprehensive. Really massive amount of information. It is my intent to review and become more familiar with this subject. This is a very powerful presentation. Thank very much for the extremely energetic presentation 👏
Do you mean its application in inhibiting cancer metastasis? I would also like to learn more about this. The Add Aspirin clinical trial is the only one I'm aware of, but if you can point me in the direction of its other uses I'd be grateful.

I drank a large dose of vitamin c when I was urinating droplets of thick blood (*ouch*). By the time I got to the doctor in the ER, I was urinating almost normally. In other words, I believe I absorbed higher than 200 mg amounts in my circulatory system by drinking it.
Finally we are in the world where health matters and we can click on informative videos instead of getting an answer 3 months later with a Dr visit. And yupp asthma sucks....its like getting a stuffy nose only with your lungs. Thanks Dr

For Colds - 5000 mgs at first sign, then 1000mgs per hour until symptoms subside & you can taper off from there. Stops any cold. Of course a balanced diet is necessary.
Thank you for this deep dive-- not to be a pest, but NAC and L Glutathione by Russian and NY MDs were reported to have brought 2 or 4 patients back from the brink, who are not putting them to the test in studies. Hope you can address.
NAc produces Gluthatione, so supplementing Gluthatione is not as useful (you can't absorb it as supplement that well) its better to take NAc and produce it in your own liver. Also check NAC with Glycine, the potency is even better. Nac is new to me, and already seeing a HUGE YUGEEE difference. It's so good and underated. I read maaaany studies before taking it. All excellent. This is why they're taking it out of the stores, because it WORKS.
@@desisacris I take 800 mg per day in one take when I wake up and wait one hour before breakfast to make it super absorbable, along with 800mg of glycine since they seem to have powerful anti-aging and healing properties combined. I don't do it at night since it keeps me awake! Some people do 600 mg twice a day... Depending what you want to take it for. People with serious illnesses take up to 2400 mg. Look it up and see what's best for you.
similar things happened with vitamin C infusion. it all works to reduce oxidative stresses in the body. Dr Paul Marik has good info on sepsis. when ppl get really sick, their vitamin C level is 0.

The recommendation of about 100 mg per day is good enough to prevent scurvy but is insufficient to keep the body healthy. I would recomment to watch the video from and with Dr. Thomas E. Levy on vitamin c.
I understand the blood serum vitamin C concentration time constant in human blood is of order 20 to 30 minutes for an oral dose. If so, then almost all the scholarly studies failed to dose frequently enough with their once or twice per day doses.
Hi it was a great information about vitamin C studies. It would have been helpful if there was a summary with bullet points of the findings that can be translated to normal population, and how people can use the information that you provided. e.g. when taking vitamin C orally it's better to take it twice or few times a day, than just once a day higher doze because....the plazma and vitamin C will stay higher.
Hi! Have you guys been researching into the claims of hydrogen water ? Supposedly it works very well as an antioxidant, I wish I could get your opinion on this

I drink lemon and lime water about 2-3 times a day for years now with a full lemon or lime in each glass, so I go through about 2-3 lemon or limes a day.. it’s very bio available because it’s in its natural form. On top of that I make sure to get in as much fruit as possible. Our vitamin C needs are actually a lot higher than they recommend and we’re meant to be getting it from our food not a supplement. When you get enough it significantly increases health and youthfulness. I haven’t had any issues with my teeth I just don’t brush them for at least an hour after drinking it.

Thanks for concentrating the research. I may have missed it in the video, but outside of liposomal Vit C is there a big bioavailability difference in the other oral forms? Powder/pill/liquid/chelates form? The other area would be the SNPs in our DNA analysis that are specific to Vit C absorption. You did mention briefly but not really in depth. The fact that half the sailors didnt get scurvey under the same conditions suggests DNA link is significant. Thanks again Dr. P!
there's so much to learn still... There are people that have been in carnivore diet (just red meat) for decades and they never developed scurvy. Seems there's a link on the need for vitamin C and carbohydrates as energy source. Check Charlene Anderson, she's been on red meat for 23 years (for her lyme's disease) and hasn't developed scurvy nor any other ailment. You'll see she looks younger than when se was 25!! we know nothing yet. Check the Peterson's family, they are now doing the same for their auto immune issues, and they've never been healthier. In those rare cases, I'd love if there were more studies.
@@AlbionRising there are some vitamin c in the meat. vitamin c is weak against heat but degeneration is a rather slow process. if u like raw or medium rare .. or even medium , you will get some vitamin c from there.
@@AlbionRising u know these animals eat vitamins for us. grass fed animals or not factory farmed animal have more vitamins and minerals and better balanced fat in the meat.

I can attest to Vitamin C improving sperm quality. My ejaculations were of very little volume and there was more water than sperm. After taking vitamin c 2g 3x a day, my sperm volume increased and it's all white now instead of being water.
19:40 Why would a longer half-life indicate it is more bio-available? It seems like it would be the other way. If it was more bio-available it would quickly leave the plasma and go into the cells. This same argument is used for the different forms of K2. Having a longer half-life could mean your body is having a harder time using it.
Most people can tolerate a tun of Vitamin C. A decent daily dosage is 2-3G (ideally liposomal or else you'll want more) and up to 15+ grams a day when sick. I spread my vitamin c out over the day to maintain stable levels.

Intravenous is always better option for sever deficiency because of it’s bioavailability and bypassing first pass metabolism and cut malabsorption,but you can’t always inject it it’s inappropriate,so consider your situation and take it either IV or oral route
I just got over 11,000% RDI just eating 2 ounces of red grapes, 2 ounces of strawberries and 3 ounces of watermelon. Plus 114% RDI for iron. I wonder if we need to supplement if we eat enough fruit? I cured hepatitis C with high dose ascorbic acid but I wasn’t eating fruit every day back then.
Great presentation. I take 90-140 grams of vitamin C a day as part of my protocol for my Stage 4, metastatic colorectal cancer. I've been doing so for two months and only reach bowel tolerance when my carb consumption is high. With low carbohydrate intake, I'm pretty sure I could tolerate up to 200 grams. Curious to see how/if this benefits me long term. Thought it worth sharing as I was very doubtful of one's ability to tolerate such high levels.
When I first started taking it, I had a mild increase in energy - nothing dramatic. I've read that it can make chemo more tolerable, but I haven't found this to be the case.
Hi Dr Patrick. A little off topic but I thought I might have better luck asking on your most recent video. I was wondering how long do increases of Human Growth Hormone persist after an extended fast?
I'm interested to hear about prolonged-release Vitamin C and how it compares to liposomal and multiple doses. Ideally it should have the same effect of multiple daily doses but have there been any studies or comparisons with the prolonged-release form? Ciao from Italy! L
I am an 89 year old retired general surgeon. Did you know that Gray’s Anatomy in med school states that the adrenal glands contain the highest concentration of Vit C in the body? The adrenal cortex contain cortisone. The adrenal center contains adrenaline. You know what these chemicals do. For 50 years now, I take 2,000 mg of Vit C everyday. It is extremely rare that I get a cold. If I do get a cold, I take 2,000 mg 3 x a day. My cold goes away in 2 days. Experiments in stress cause a great reduction in the Vit C blood level after a stressful s stimulus is given. It takes several delays before the Vit C level goes back to normal. A curious observation is that my fingers have remained normal looking (straight) while my wife’s fingers are crooked from washing dishes!
Just came across this video and your comment, high cortisol, stress and light at night exposure that raises cortisol is in my opinion causing a scurvy epidemic in the modern world. I have worked on checkouts and in previous years did not have enough vitamin C by eating cooked food, drinking coffee etc and ended up with scurvy/gout symptoms, so fixed most of that with a lemon in juice once a day. Totally right about the adrenals, it is an epidemic (: people likely need extra vitamin B5 too
Very interesting thank you. I am curious if there are any diets that you may recommend that can help suppress HPV virus and the damaging effects it may have on the cervix?
You might want to look into Ozone therapy, which is great for the whole body and many diseases, but can be given vaginally for specific issues as well.

this guy is as renowned in the electro medicine worlds AS linus is in the chemical..both look utterly sick on their way to death and yet PROMISE you miracle like health from their ideas, yet how many even smell a rat with KNOWLEDGE THIS IN YOUR FACE>? Just watch the video, and ignore his bs comments about garlic obviously, sick people are so sick they fail to realize how sick they are, facts. th-cam.com/video/MrHTcit_Cds/w-d-xo.html Garlic is a poison - Dr Robert Beck
instead of putting ENORMOUS amounts of electricity through his brain & body (like linus did the same dastardly with chemicals such as fake vitamin C from big pharma) IF HE HAD of taken that natural garlic as one of his medicines, he would of looked & felt better, and surely would of prolonged his life instead of shortening it like he did. Linus died of cancer, taking both his wife and their GP doctor with him from cancer as well ON HIS ADVICE.
OH MY GARSH THO, garlic in a smoothie, hahah...thanks, I needed the laugh...how long did that last for may I ask you, honestly I love the taste of garlic, yet in a smoothie? Wow, you got some drive :)
here is linus shortly before he dies...still claiming he is correct (and HE IS accurate IN THIS VIDEO - just the correlations both he and others draw from that accuracy are completely backwards) and yet looking and sounding so horrible you can tell the free radical damage caused by the oxidation reactions to the synthetic reagents he takes (synth C combing with macro iron in the body) have taken a massive toll on his brain, etc. Sad..could of been such a benefit to the world if he did other than shill for big business/big pharma.

Timed release 500 mg to keep levels at steady state I increase it to 2 grams when I sense infection it’s very useful for allergy control. Eating Fructose laden fruit to get small amounts of C is counterproductive. Better to eat berries if no other source . Reality is modern man lacks any proper levels of minerals. Our soils are now so depleted by improper farming geared to industrial food production.
Your right , no minerals,doesn't matter of all the vitimins in it if it doesn't have minerals. It will catch up to a person. You'll become boneless chicken.

I do 15 grams of Vit C and 2 grams of Niacin every day. I do not eat fast food, I cook. God Bless and Gods Speed
15 grams? 😳
@@Danboi. That blew me away too, I do 2+2=4 grams/day
You must be taking it every hour on the hour then. It is water soluble so I guess it is doing good things without causing anything but lots of peeing. Whatever works for you!
@@Danboi.
In average I take a teaspoon 2x a day. Mostly mixed with a third amount of natruim bi carbonate (in USA known as Hammer backing powder). It tastes better and possibly works better I heard. Is it called ascorbate? Not more peeing than normal. No diarrea. I feel much better. Regular stool, soft instead of hard.

1:13:15 A person that supplemented vitamin C can expect a kidney stone every 323 years whereas a person who did not supplement with vitamin C can expect it every 613 years. Well, that answers MY question. Thank you Rhonda for your wonderful work.
how do you apply IV VIT C at home for curing cancer ?
@@williamwilson7857 hello William, check out Dr. Thomas Levy and his work on liposomal vitamin C (vitamin C that is incased in a lipid) this C can be taken at much higher doses than regular C without gastric upsets and more C gets into our cells, via the lipid that surrounds it. This would be in place of having an IV. There are clinics that have popped up that administer IV C, and you might also check into a DO, Dr. of Osteopath, or a holistic healthcare provider for IV administration of vitamin C.
@@stephaniechaffee6269 thank you Stephanie, I will check that
@@stephaniechaffee6269 I take Livon labs liposomal vitamin C , there soya lecithin in it.... Do you think it could be bad as sometime I take up too 15 grams a Day... I suffer from diverticulitis and I use It to fight infection
@@sami-pe1no please stop taking anything with Soya. Look up Dr. Schulze's Incurables Program and do it!
I took 30-40,000 mg of C daily for a couple of years to reverse systemic inflammation and heart issues. I took 3-4 grams per hour for 10 hours each day without reaching bowel tolerance. At the beginning, it was 4 grams per hour. After about a year, 4g was loosening my stool, so I dropped to 3 per hour.
I'm now back and healthy and my maximum per day is 10-12g before hitting bowel tolerance.
@@evelina.amazonAtGmail Liposomal C works intracellularly and regular C extracellularly. Yes, liposomal, a true liposome, is absorbed via the cell membranes and bypasses the digestive system. However, a dose of regular oral C that causes diarrhea just means you've taken more at one time than the body can absorb and use. Normally, the sicker you are the higher the dose you can take without reaching bowel tolerance as Antony Reed's post shows.
Um, you do know there's more to health than the dosage of a single supplement, right? ^^
Interesting anecdote, with proper application, as I've heard other anecdotes for systemic / brain inflammation (brain fog).

Please keep it up.
Regarding tolerance, see Robert Cathcart's articles indicating that human tolerance rises dramatically when ill, suggesting that the body needs and utilizes vitamin C during illness. I'm curious to know your opinion here.
Dr Paul Marik. Interesting finding in ICU use.
if that was true then linus paulings , his wife , and their doctors needs would of went through the roof as all three of them died from cancer pretty close to one another. Oh btw, did you know that those three people were three first proponents of the idea of megadosing artificial vitamins C made by big pharma?

Does anyone else follow Linus Pauling's thinking on megadosing vitamin C?
I was surprised to find David Sinclair mentioning his practices (along with the lovely Rhonda Patrick - by name!) in his recent book.
Can you expand a bit more? I haven't followed Linus Pauling's thinking on this and would like to know what useful information you may have gathered from your reading.
Thanks!
Daniel Chiriff My personal advise is to read the book “Vitamin C: The Real Story” by Steve Hickey PhD & Andrew W Saul PhD (who has many more books) as Dr Pauling work is somewhat revealed in it. I have this book as “worth knowing about” in my own book, send me a message if you’d like it.
But I really like Dr Patrick and her “no nonsense” approach, so much so, that I referenced one of her other subjects in my own book FYI.

Thank you Rhonda this was excellent. Unfortunately many of the studies you say are needed will never happen because big pharma can't patent Vitamin C so no profit = no studies. In fact any evidence of its effectiveness will be squashed because they would lose billions because vitamin C would make many of their toxic drugs unnecessary. I salute you for getting the word out on Vitamin C in an honest manner.
There's nothing stopping the Vitamin C manufacturers from pooling their money to fund studies. Unless they prefer a world where people will take it without proof and make up stories about why there are no studies.
Also, there's nothing particular to Vitamin C stopping universities from publishing papers on Vitamin C.
Also, "quashed." Oranges are squashed.
That’s not true. Academic medical centers, and many private groups or hospitals, run studies all the time that are not funded by pharmaceutical companies. Human research is somewhat tedious to perform due to the regulations, approval process, and training involved. This is not a bad thing but it does mean that research can be slow and a single study may take years to complete.
@@darkpatches I would like to agree with you... I feel pharmaceutical companies have a cozy relationship with Universities..
I suspect, to get proper studies completed, will require someone to run a go-fund-me page and pay for some research centre cold hard cash... to get the results and findings published
it's amazing how many times i have to address this. Linus killed himself and both his doctor and wife with his advice. THEY all three died of cancer from cramming as much artificial/synthetic vitamin C into their mouths as they could until it started coming out there feces. They expected this strange idea would bring them natural miracle like health...each of them looked very ill while they were passing using this concept...now thousands, maybe even millions follow their concepts....Linus even sped his damage up with urine therapy. Take natural vitamins (food matrix etc) in NATURAL amounts, has worked for many thousands of years, and is the number one recommended way...REMEMBER BASICS, and connect the dots, case histories of all those 3 I just mentioned PROVE what caused their demise...now how come big pharma didn't tell you about this? Oh they sell MOST of the artificial vitamin C...well of coarse.
@@bluetrinityhaloseven7244 Wow, what a speil.

I just thought I'd offer this, that is what happened to me today. 2 days ago I felt a cold coming on. The back of my throat got a bit tender, that's how I know when I'm getting a cold. I bought a bottle of vitamin C 500mg tablets, and started taking 2 tablets 3 to 4 times Thursday, Friday and as well as today. I'm going to a kidney specialist come the 21st of December. I'v seen a lot of foam in my urine but today 3 times I'v urinated and the result was. 1st time no foam 2nd time some bubbles but quickly dissipated 3rd time also some bubbles and quickly dissipated again. This had not been the case for the last couple of months that I've noticed the foam in my urine. I found it interesting so I went looking on TH-cam about vitamin C. I came across this video and figured I'd share what im experiencing. I plan on telling the kidney specialist when I see him. Hope you find this interesting.
PS. Just went again still the same but 1 important thing I forgot to include my urine was a dark yellow but now it just has a yellow tint to it. It's a huge difference in just a short period of time. I'm talking 24 to 48 hrs. Anyway had to add this as well.
Certain vitamin supplements, as well as certain medications and foods can cause you to have brighter yellow urine..
And sometimes being dehydrated can cause this to happen as well.But, to be on the safe side I'm glad you are seeing a specialist... Hope you are doing well!

also linus pauling, wife, and their GP doctor all died from megadosing synthetic big pharma (so called) vitamin C...all from cancer within a few years of each other. These of coarse were the first proponents of this concept...and became the first three case histories of what taking such a product in such enormous amounts WILL do to the body. In the short term it kills a few virals due to the oxidation reaction with iron that releases free radicals, yet of coarse this will lead to massive cancer formations down the road...very poor way to do medicine OR science, yet we all know how many fans of such a dastardly big business big pharma idea such has today!

I drank a large dose of vitamin c when I was urinating droplets of thick blood (*ouch*). By the time I got to the doctor in the ER, I was urinating almost normally. In other words, I believe I absorbed higher than 200 mg amounts in my circulatory system by drinking it.

For Colds - 5000 mgs at first sign, then 1000mgs per hour until symptoms subside & you can taper off from there. Stops any cold. Of course a balanced diet is necessary.

Thank you for this deep dive-- not to be a pest, but NAC and L Glutathione by Russian and NY MDs were reported to have brought 2 or 4 patients back from the brink, who are not putting them to the test in studies. Hope you can address.
NAc produces Gluthatione, so supplementing Gluthatione is not as useful (you can't absorb it as supplement that well) its better to take NAc and produce it in your own liver. Also check NAC with Glycine, the potency is even better. Nac is new to me, and already seeing a HUGE YUGEEE difference. It's so good and underated. I read maaaany studies before taking it. All excellent. This is why they're taking it out of the stores, because it WORKS.
@@AlbionRising hello.. how many mg of NAC do you take daily? Thank you
@@desisacris I take 800 mg per day in one take when I wake up and wait one hour before breakfast to make it super absorbable, along with 800mg of glycine since they seem to have powerful anti-aging and healing properties combined.

Depending what you want to take it for.
People with serious illnesses take up to 2400 mg.

The problem with vitamin E studies is that there are 2 types , the E vit tocotrienols ratio makes a big difference.
The recommendation of about 100 mg per day is good enough to prevent scurvy but is insufficient to keep the body healthy.
I would recomment to watch the video from and with Dr. Thomas E. Levy on vitamin c.
I understand the blood serum vitamin C concentration time constant in human blood is of order 20 to 30 minutes for an oral dose. If so, then almost all the scholarly studies failed to dose frequently enough with their once or twice per day doses.
My integrative oncologist suggests sipping 8 g of vitamin C and water all throughout the day because the body can only absorb 250 mg each time.
Hi it was a great information about vitamin C studies. It would have been helpful if there was a summary with bullet points of the findings that can be translated to normal population, and how people can use the information that you provided. e.g. when taking vitamin C orally it's better to take it twice or few times a day, than just once a day higher doze because....the plazma and vitamin C will stay higher.
wow. Very understandable for the regular person. Thanks.

I drink lemon and lime water about 2-3 times a day for years now with a full lemon or lime in each glass, so I go through about 2-3 lemon or limes a day.. it’s very bio available because it’s in its natural form. On top of that I make sure to get in as much fruit as possible. Our vitamin C needs are actually a lot higher than they recommend and we’re meant to be getting it from our food not a supplement. When you get enough it significantly increases health and youthfulness. I haven’t had any issues with my teeth I just don’t brush them for at least an hour after drinking it.

Thanks for concentrating the research. I may have missed it in the video, but outside of liposomal Vit C is there a big bioavailability difference in the other oral forms? Powder/pill/liquid/chelates form? The other area would be the SNPs in our DNA analysis that are specific to Vit C absorption. You did mention briefly but not really in depth. The fact that half the sailors didnt get scurvey under the same conditions suggests DNA link is significant. Thanks again Dr. P!
there's so much to learn still... There are people that have been in carnivore diet (just red meat) for decades and they never developed scurvy. Seems there's a link on the need for vitamin C and carbohydrates as energy source. Check Charlene Anderson, she's been on red meat for 23 years (for her lyme's disease) and hasn't developed scurvy nor any other ailment. You'll see she looks younger than when se was 25!! we know nothing yet. Check the Peterson's family, they are now doing the same for their auto immune issues, and they've never been healthier. In those rare cases, I'd love if there were more studies.
@@AlbionRising there are some vitamin c in the meat. vitamin c is weak against heat but degeneration is a rather slow process. if u like raw or medium rare .. or even medium , you will get some vitamin c from there.
@@AlbionRising u know these animals eat vitamins for us. grass fed animals or not factory farmed animal have more vitamins and minerals and better balanced fat in the meat.
@@AlbionRising I have no dispute about carnivores diet being a viable option for people who choose to follow. My question is, are there many long term carnivores followers who live or lived as long and healthy as the Blue Zones people, whose diets are mostly plant based?

Brilliant information . Well done.
What about all the different types of oral vitamin c? Are they made all equal and if not which one should be used? Buffered forms such as Sodium/Calcium/Magnesium/Zinc/etc Ascorbate vs ascorbic acid?
Good point! I see no point at all of these supplements' arguments... too much vague, partial and biased in a sens...
from what I get through Vitamin C is more more than ascorbic acid or asorbate & co. etc.

I live in the UK and wondering if anyone knows of any information on self administration of Vit c intravenously? Thanks, for any answers. :)
Curious as well
you can do it yourself if you want to. its found in doctoryourself.com dr Klenner. there are a few videos in youtube too
also linus pauling, wife, and their GP doctor all died from megadosing synthetic big pharma (so called) vitamin C...all from cancer within a few years of each other. These of coarse were the first proponents of this concept...and became the first three case histories of what taking such a product in such enormous amounts WILL do to the body. In the short term it kills a few virals due to the oxidation reaction with iron that releases free radicals, yet of coarse this will lead to massive cancer formations down the road...very poor way to do medicine OR science, yet we all know how many fans of such a dastardly big business big pharma idea such has today!
YES the clinical guide to the use of vitamin C is MOST LIKELY TRUE, yet what kind of person uses it to save lives IF THERE ARE OTHER CHOICES available when such a program WILL lead to massive cancer formations afterwards? Only the ignorant or utterly stupid...that is who...Dr Klenner was in the former category as he had zero knowledge about the long term effects...and he died before he could get any of those case histories, yet all he has to do was look at Linus pauling, his wife, and their GP doctor to figure it out with massive speed...they all died from cancer, and took 10+ grams of synthetic C every day pretty much until it took their lives. They also looked extremely sick while they were passing, little surprise there..lee the person that shills for big pharma like linus himself did has been trolling these comments with his nonsense for years now, and he was put on block/mute by me for it...so I ignore all his bs except where I seek to protect the innocent/naive from his one sided nonsense!

Excellent!!I thank you for this Info.💛👏🙏 I m going to step up my vit C Liposomal intake.
I can attest to Vitamin C improving sperm quality. My ejaculations were of very little volume and there was more water than sperm. After taking vitamin c 2g 3x a day, my sperm volume increased and it's all white now instead of being water.
I think ima stop taking vitamin c. Higher sperm count = more child support.
Hmm 🤔. Found my stiffness.
@@mrmeach1967 So true! 🤣 Vitamin C enhances cardiovascular health and promote blood circulation, pre-requisite to certain rigid occurrences.
Yes it def helps

Thank you for your detailed explanation!!

19:40 Why would a longer half-life indicate it is more bio-available? It seems like it would be the other way. If it was more bio-available it would quickly leave the plasma and go into the cells. This same argument is used for the different forms of K2. Having a longer half-life could mean your body is having a harder time using it.
Normally they do urine tests to see the vitamin C content at the same time to make such statements.
Most people can tolerate a tun of Vitamin C. A decent daily dosage is 2-3G (ideally liposomal or else you'll want more) and up to 15+ grams a day when sick. I spread my vitamin c out over the day to maintain stable levels.

How many Mg.?
What about for cancer? Should you space it out over the day or take a mega dose in a small amount of time (like 1-1.5 hours)? For the bigger spacing, how many hours between the spaces?
I like Dr. Patrick bit I'm just curious does anyone else feel like they are sitting with legs crossed on shag carpet in stripped crew socks or is it just me.

Please advise me on which is better oral or intravenous of vitamin C. Also the doses on each. Thanks for your help and Prayers.
Intravenous is always better option for sever deficiency because of it’s bioavailability and bypassing first pass metabolism and cut malabsorption,but you can’t always inject it it’s inappropriate,so consider your situation and take it either IV or oral route

Great presentation. I take 90-140 grams of vitamin C a day as part of my protocol for my Stage 4, metastatic colorectal cancer. I've been doing so for two months and only reach bowel tolerance when my carb consumption is high. With low carbohydrate intake, I'm pretty sure I could tolerate up to 200 grams. Curious to see how/if this benefits me long term. Thought it worth sharing as I was very doubtful of one's ability to tolerate such high levels.
Do you feel better?
When I first started taking it, I had a mild increase in energy - nothing dramatic. I've read that it can make chemo more tolerable, but I haven't found this to be the case.

I am an 89 year old retired general surgeon.
Did you know that Gray’s Anatomy in med school states that the adrenal glands contain the highest
concentration of Vit C in the body? The adrenal cortex contain cortisone. The adrenal center contains
adrenaline. You know what these chemicals do.
For 50 years now, I take 2,000 mg of Vit C everyday. It is extremely rare that I get a cold. If I do get a cold, I take 2,000 mg 3 x a day. My cold goes away in 2 days.
Experiments in stress cause a great reduction in the Vit C blood level after a stressful s stimulus is given.
It takes several delays before the Vit C level goes back to normal.
A curious observation is that my fingers have remained normal looking (straight) while my wife’s fingers are crooked from washing dishes!
Just came across this video and your comment, high cortisol, stress and light at night exposure that raises cortisol is in my opinion causing a scurvy epidemic in the modern world. I have worked on checkouts and in previous years did not have enough vitamin C by eating cooked food, drinking coffee etc and ended up with scurvy/gout symptoms, so fixed most of that with a lemon in juice once a day. Totally right about the adrenals, it is an epidemic (: people likely need extra vitamin B5 too
Are the side effects via iv/shots the same as if taken orally? 🤔
Can you recommend a good multivitamin among with a reputable vitamin D and k3? I don’t see any recommendations on your website thank you!

I have an immune deficiency and autoimmune disease and am trying to boost my immune system. I am starting to add it into my diet any way I can, even to my smoothies. Hopeful that it is doing something! I am interested in how it may be beneficial to our health. Thank you for your helpful and interesting videos!

instead of putting ENORMOUS amounts of electricity through his brain & body (like linus did the same dastardly with chemicals such as fake vitamin C from big pharma) IF HE HAD of taken that natural garlic as one of his medicines, he would of looked & felt better, and surely would of prolonged his life instead of shortening it like he did. Linus died of cancer, taking both his wife and their GP doctor with him from cancer as well ON HIS ADVICE.
OH MY GARSH THO, garlic in a smoothie, hahah...thanks, I needed the laugh...how long did that last for may I ask you, honestly I love the taste of garlic, yet in a smoothie? Wow, you got some drive :)
here is linus shortly before he dies...still claiming he is correct (and HE IS accurate IN THIS VIDEO - just the correlations both he and others draw from that accuracy are completely backwards) and yet looking and sounding so horrible you can tell the free radical damage caused by the oxidation reactions to the synthetic reagents he takes (synth C combing with macro iron in the body) have taken a massive toll on his brain, etc. Sad..could of been such a benefit to the world if he did other than shill for big business/big pharma.

Does anyone have thoughts on rectal administration of vitamin c? Potentially bypassing the digestive route?
Sounds like an adventure. If you try, please do let us know. 🤓
