Re: Will Vit. C Help Liver/Gallstones?

Hi,

No one can say categorically, but perhaps you might find the information on the following websites of interest: http://www.orthomed.com/titrate.htm and http://www.orthomed.com/pain.htm

Also possibly: http://www.vitamincfoundation.org and http://www.vitamincfoundation.org/forum

"There is not one human disease that is not caused or accentuated by a lack of a mineral or vitamin." -- Dr. Linus Pauling, Double Nobel Prize Laureate

"There are more than ten thousand scientific papers that make it quite clear that there is not one body process (such as what goes on inside cells or tissues) and not one disease or syndrome (from the common cold to leprosy) that is not influenced - directly or indirectly - by vitamin C." -- Dr. Emanuel Cheraskin, M.D., Dr. Marshall Ringsdorf, D.M.D., and Dr. Emily Sisley, THE VITAMIN C CONNECTION.

“I have never seen a patient that Vitamin C would not benefit.” -- Dr. Frederick Klenner, M.D.

As "grist for your mill," I myself have taken a "bowel tolerance" dose http://www.orthomed.com/titrate.htm (in HEALTH, not illness) of ascorbic acid every day since 1994, amounting to, on average, 30,000 to 60,000 milligrams (approximately 1 to 2 ounces) in 5 to 10 divided doses (and will continue to do so for the rest of my life). This is MY "bowel tolerance" dosage. Your "bowel tolerance" dosage may be more, or less, than mine, and will undoubtedly vary depending on your current overall health and diet. Each person must find their own "bowel tolerance" dose each day (although ingesting ANY ascorbate is MUCH better than none). Virtually any mammal you can name (standardized to 154 pounds/70 kilos) produces a minimum of from 2,000 to 19,000 milligrams of ascorbic acid EVERY day of its life, and under "stress" one was recorded to have produced 100,000 milligrams in 24 hours. Need we wonder why their health always seems to be so much better than ours?

If you have any questions, comments, and/or criticisms, if you like, I would be happy to try and address them.

Best wishes,

David Smith

P.S. Be assured, I have no financial connection with any of these modalities or websites.
