Re: Megadosing C and hairloss

David thanks for your response.

Large doses of ascorbate can displace copper, increase iron absorption, an undoubtedly alter biochemistry in many other ways (ph, etc).

Any of these could trigger hairloss in predisposed individuals.

Also it is documented that gray hair is a result of peroxides in the follicle. At high doses ascorbate is proxidant forming peroxides.

I'm all about IV C for emergencies but have become much more conservative about megadosing isolated nutrients.
