Re: Throath infection, sinus infection, ear infection, broken ear drum and kidney failure

Dear David, thank you very much for your reply and great advises on vitamin c. I very much appreciate your supportive thoughts and very kind words.

Meanwhile, my husband got much better and we left from the hospital,he had still little bit higher blood pressure for which he was using adalat 30, but we now decided to stop it due to terrible headaches. The blood pressure is now around 140/85 in average, not so bad and headaches stooped. His pee still contain a white foam on the top which is sign of slight albuminuria which is some protein in pee, due to kidneys damage caused by poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (that is what he was diagnosed with, terrible and very dangerous disease caused by streptococcus). I believe it will clear by the time as well.

Frankly speaking I was not aware even nearly 70% of that what I was reading in the article.//www.curezone.org/aa/?1054405 about vitamine c. I must say that now I am even scared as there are few things I am not sure about. In the article it says:

"Apparently, certain metabolic reactions are facilitated by large amounts of ascorbate and if the substance is suddenly withdrawn, certain problems result such as a cold, return of allergy, fatigue, etc. Mostly, these problems are a return of problems the patient had before taking the ascorbic acid."

Does that mean that high doses of vitamin c are not helping body to heal? If it would, I believe that after some time you can lower the dose and let the body run properly without extreme overdosing with vitamin c while having a well balanced diet. If you have to keep the high doses,that means the body stays sick and is just for some reason not showing the symptoms of a disease due to high doses of vitamin c and as soon as you cut of the overdosing, it will show back all the symptoms. I am not a specialist but that is what I understand of the article.

I am aware that calcium ascorbate is less potent then ascorbic acid, but I guess for my stomach it is more gentle and as it says on the bottle, 1/4 of a tea spoon is 1200mg of vitamin c, so I guess then of ascorbic acid I would need only half of that amount, so that makes me thing on the end, 120o mg of vitamin c is 1200 mg vitamin c either achieved with 1/4 of a tea spoon of calcium ascorbate or half of that amount achieved by ascorbic acid, right? I hope I am getting this right.

I also wanted to say how much I appreciate this site where I really learned a lot from great people and their experiences.

Thank you very much!
