I'm not going to argue about the relationship between Vit C and ascorbic acid (natural or not)

All I'm saying is that MH asked "What do you think your a sorbic acid will do when you mix it with saliva?" It is an indisputable fact that oranges are rich in ascorbic acid. I cannot see how MH can imply that some bad consequences lie ahead if you mix saliva and ascorbic acid, yet recommend a diet which involves drinking ascorbic acid.
