VITAMIN-C POWDER (Ascorbic Acid)

Vitamin C is an important essential nutrient which can not be produced by our bodies and must be obtained from our diets. Unfortunately modern food processing methods leech out this water soluble vitamin and often times supplementing is the only viable method of obtaining an adequate intake. Additionally, therapeutic levels can only be achieved by supplementing.

- WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY -

Given the function of Vitamin C alone, it has a wide range of clinical uses. For the prevention of the common cold and flu syndrome, Vitamin C produces a positive immunologic response to help fight bacteria and viruses. Its support of the adrenal function and role in the production of the adrenal hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine can help the body handle infections and stress of all kinds. Because of this adrenal-augmenting response, as well as thyroid support by stimulating production of thyroxin (T4) hormone, Vitamin C may help with problems of fatigue and slow metabolism. It also helps counteract the side effects of cortisone drug therapy and may counteract the decreased cellular immunity experienced during the course of treatment with these commonly used immune-suppressive drugs.

Because of ascorbic acid's role in immunity, its antioxidant effect, the adrenal support it provides, and probably its ability to make tissues healthy through its formation and maintenance of collagen, Vitamin C is used to treat a wide range of viral, bacterial, and fungal infections and inflammatory problems of all kinds. I have used Vitamin C successfully in many viral conditions, including colds, flu, hepatitis, herpes simplex infections, mononucleosis, measles, and shingles. Recently, Vitamin C has been shown in some studies to enhance the production and activity of interferon, an antiviral substance produced by our bodies. To affect these conditions, the Vitamin C dosage is usually fairly high, at least 5 to 10 grams per day, but it is possible that much smaller doses are effective. Vitamin C is also used to treat problems due to general inflammation from microorganisms, irritants, and decreased resistance; these problems may include cystitis, bronchitis, prostatitis, bursitis, both osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, and some chronic skin problems (dermatitis). With arthritis, there is some suggestion that increased ascorbic acid may improve the integrity of membranes in joints. In gouty arthritis, Vitamin C improves the elimination of uric acid (the irritant) through the kidneys. Ascorbic acid has also been helpful for the relief of back pain and pain from inflamed vertebral disks, as well as the inflammatory pain that is sometimes associated with rigorous exercise. In asthma, Vitamin C may relieve the bronchospasm caused by noxious stimuli or when this tight-chested feeling is experienced during exercise.
