Re: Vitamin C related to bile production?
I also used to take Sodium Ascorbate, but stopped due to it making me feel too alkaline. I'm convinced Sodium Ascorbate ruined my digestion.
I use Electro-C by Nutrabiotic. It's mineral ascorbates, sweetened slightly with Stevia. I take 3-4 tsp per day, which is about 12-16g per day.
Doing this has transformed my health more than anything I have ever tried with diet or supplementation. I was a raw vegan for 5 years and this Vitamin C protocol has given me even more benefits.
I like that on my Vitamin C protocol I can eat a more relaxed diet without suffering consequences. I can have a danish, a burger and fries, or whatever I'd like without feeling like crap afterwards. On a strict diet, eating a greasy meal made me feel like death. On the C protocol, I feel fine if I have a cheat meal. I know certain foods aren't good for me, so I do choose healthier options, but I'm not afraid to eat a glorious meal every now and again.
