Top 5 Misconceptions About Vitamin C You Must Know - Doctor Reviews The TRUTH

Get the Highest Quality Electrolyte euvexia.com . Vitamin C is an essential nutrient necessary for optimal health and immunity as a vitamin and supplement. A severe deficiency is call scurvy, which is fatal unless vitamin C is added back in the diet. It is needed for connective tissue formation, so Vitamin C benefits include, healthy bones, skin and blood vessels. Foods rich in vitamin C provide not simply ascorbic acid, but all the other components of the vitamin C complex.
Even though ascorbic acid is the same as vitamin C by definition, it does not provide all the benefits. Vitamin C from whole food provide so much more than antioxidants, which are not the universal health booster they are often claimed to be.

I’m always skeptical of “studies”. You need to know who paid for them. A study funded by Pharmaceutical companies, or organizations associated with Pharma, may not be the best for judging vitamin efficacy. Just saying.

[@user-mk2wb9uu1e]

YES very TRUE !!!

[@madhatter9001]

As a retired Chef I can say Vitamins are essential to good health. I have always taken Vitamins, and Vitamin C & D3 with K are a must for me.

[@Romanlove11]

I was told to stop taking k2. K is for clotting blood, not healthy to take especially if eating a healthy diet.

[@robertgoldstein52]

Add Magnesium EXCELLENT

[@venividivici4567]

@@Romanlove11 vitamin K2 is essential if you want to keep the calcium in your bones, and not lining your coronary arteries!

[@jjtopp99]

@@Romanlove11 You are confusing Vitamin K2 with Vitamin K1. Vitamin K1 IS the "clotting vitamin". Whoever told you to stop taking K2 is spouting absolute nonsense. Likely an ignorant family practice medical doctor or cardiologist. Even very large amounts of K2 from food or supplements do not markedly affect blood clotting. Vitamin K1 is plentiful in a diet rich in foods such as spinach and other vegetables so there are very few Western world inhabitants that develop a K1 deficiency. However, due to dietary changes over the last 100 years most Westerners have an acute deficiency in Vitamin K2. Unfortunately, vegetables only contain little, if any, Vitamin K2. Foods rich in K2 include organ meats from grass-fed animals, Brie and Gouda cheeses, Natto (made from fermented soybeans), and Grass-fed Butter. Eggs as well. You can do an internet search for lists of foods rich in Vitamin K2. Adequate K2 is absolutely ESSENTIAL to your cardiovascular health as it keeps calcium in your bones and out of your arteries (as Veni VidiVici stated immediately above). Having said all that, it is difficult for the typical Westerner to get enough K2 via diet alone. I personally have been supplementing daily with K2 (in gel cap form, avoid the less effective dry capsule forms) for almost 10 years now. I am 70 years old and in excellent cardiovascular health.

[@TamasLukacs-ltommie]

@@Romanlove11 It seems like we all should think in K complex, just like vit C. The same with vit E. They all works in a complex.

[@davidelliott5843]

In a serious infection, the body fails to process vitamin C. In those situations, it’s given intravenously with remarkable results. It’s been ignored for the recent disease but it’s well known to intensive care medics.

[@lenfirewood4089]

Yes and the interesting thing is that it is in ascorbic acid form and not one of the expensive "organic etc" formulations.

[@serfinusa9532]

yep. i recommend people search Dr. Linus Pauling and the work he did. Many are curing cancer with IV Vitamin C (allegedly).

[@davmus1112]

In serious infections the body doesn't fail to process vitamin C, you just need lots more.

[@Test7017]

Some people might need more then theye imagine just keep popping it you wonder die only get possible diahrea and better health

[@dylaneckhoff2784]

Not true. Your body uses and depletes vitamin C during infections. This is why blood levels of vitamin C are astronomically lower while sick, and most likely the reason why every mammal on the planet, who produces vitamin C inside of its body, produces up to 100 times the normal amount of vitamin C, during sickness.

[@joannekerr8839]

Most animals make vitamin c as ascorbic acid. Linus Pauling was a brilliant man and did much research on vitamin c and suggested 3 to 10 grams of ascorbic acid per day

During the Vietnam War, many soldiers were dying of infections, brought about by wounds and other, causes. That's why vitamin c, was part of the soldier's ration and this saved the lives of a lot of soldiers from infections.

[@peter-iq5en]

Linus Pauling would say this MD doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Vitamin C is not dangerous. Approx 2 people have died from vitamin C. One death was due to a 30lb box of vitamin C falling on a guy’s head.

[@peter-iq5en]

@Talibro Joe Charlie said he put his money on the 2 time nobel prize winner, Linus.

[@peter-iq5en]

@Talibro Joe Yeah, they give nobel prizes for literature too. But Pauling got his for his contributions to science(chemistry). Which validate Pauling as a better source for scientific theory.

How about the view / position of Dr. Linus Pauling regarding Vitamin C? He did quite the review of studies and came to the conclusion that taking Vitamin C likely prevented cancer, also reduced days of recovery in a hospital, supports healthy cells, etc. He did win a Nobel Prize. He also attributed one of the major problems with health today is the large consumption of SUGAR.

mega dose has its uses. but naturalists do not want to admit that megadose actually work so well. The facts are out there. Natural food is kinda useless when a person is in a coma or in a critical condition. The effect of vitamin C in large amount is amazing for critical conditions. Their position is that natural food feeds and heals and we should try to get nutrients from natural food.

[@chopperread1201]

Because it is going straight into your veins instantly working at a 100% absorption rate. Also normally it is a really high dose

[@Chris-kr7gg]

This guy talks crap, Linus knew, you have fatigue probably to so with a dysfunction of the mitochondria and vitamin C helps the endothelium lining of blood vessels

[@rafaelthemotivator]

Because Vitamin C is mainly found in the Adrenal glands. That means you need to fix your adrenal glands.
