Ascorbate for Burns

Because of all the burns in New York and at the Pentagon, I would like to try again to tell the medical profession, if they would listen, how so much misery and how many infections and deaths could be averted if intravenous and topical sodium ascorbate would be used in the treatment of severe burns. Note that in the above link to Klenner's article, he refers to the ascorbate used as ascorbic acid. Actually, he means sodium ascorbate for intravenous and topical use. This difference is caused by previous labeling practices.

Considering Vaccinating Your Child?

Autism is not the only brain damage done by mercury, it lowers the I.Q. below what it would have been normally. If you fully immunize your child, you may not have to pay for a college education. Of course, you may have to pay for a lot for special education and other medical problems.
If after reading the links, you still feel you must vaccinate your child, make very sure that the vaccines used do not contain mercury (the name for the mercury preservative is Thimerosal).
Stall as long as you can so that the child's immune system can mature more before it is insulted. Wait until the child is at least 2 years old.
Stall as long as you can so the child can get bigger. This will lower the concentration of mercury that reaches the brain.
Never have your child vaccinated when she/he is even slightly ill.
Never allow more than one vaccination at a time.
It is possible that the mercury poisoning of the immune system makes the child susceptible to the brain and gut infection from the live MMR vaccines.
Give you child lots of vitamin C before and after vaccinations. Give at least 2 grams of ascorbic acid per year of life (i.e. a two year old should have 4 grams spread out for the day.) Chewable sodium ascorbate, while not as good as ascorbic acid, is better than nothing. Then for maintenance and for trying to pull out some of the mercury in their brain over the long-run, give one gram per year of life up to 10 grams a day the rest of their life. If there are signs of brain damage then see a physician who knows how to chelate out mercury. Substances such as DMSA, DMPS, alpha lipoic acid may be helpful. Do not use alpha lipoic acid unless you know what you are doing because it can, under certain circumstances, take mercury into the brain.
Especially if your child has been immunized and shows some brain abnormality, it would be wise not to allow mercury amalgam dental fillings.
Statement on the Hepatitis B Vaccine by Jane Orient, M.D. Executive Director of the Association of American Physicians & Surgeons
Another factor with hepatitis B is to realize that it is a very benign disease if properly treated with massive doses of ascorbate, alpha lipoic acid, silymarin, vitamin E, selenium and other supportive nutrients. You have to have a physician available who knows how to and is willing to utilize these nutrients, of course.
A major factor which should be considered if you know how to use massive doses of ascorbic acid orally is that these diseases being vaccinated against can all be ameliorated so effectively that the vaccinations are hardly worth bothering with. Even polio can be cured if you have access to a physician who would give intravenous and intramuscular sodium ascorbate. The major problem here is finding a physician who could use intravenous sodium ascorbate in a hospital. From the legal point a view, it would be difficult to utilize this treatment outside a hospital except when the symptoms were early and still mild. One of the major problems is that with very seriously ill patients with infectious diseases, those that need the ascorbate most of all, also may need ancillary treatment available only in the hospitals. 99 out of 100 hospitals prevent the use of the needed massive doses of ascorbate.

Sloan-Kettering Admits Vitamin C Good for Something

Vitamin C prevents DNA mutation induced by oxidative stress, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY.

Finally, I thought that hell would freeze over before Sloan-Kettering would admit that vitamin C was good for anything. But how many generations and how many deaths will be necessary before it is admitted that ascorbate is useful as part of the treatment of almost all diseases. This almost universal benefit is because massive doses of ascorbate neutralize massive amounts of free radicals and free radicals mediate all inflammations. Most acute infectious diseases can be cured if the free radicals are eliminated.

The Answer to Crib Death “Sudden Infant Death Syndrome” (SIDS) by Joseph G. Hattersley

Cause Of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Remains Elusive

See the above book by Archie Kalokerinos, M.D., Medical Pioneer of the 20th Century, who has shown that SIDS is caused by acute induced scurvy. Why is this not investigated? As far as I know there have never been any studies that refute this claim. Is admitting that large doses of ascorbate that terrible? In the reference by Hattersley above one can see the massive number of references on this subject in the literature. This hiding of the efficacy of ascorbate is going from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Sudden Infant Death - Treat With Vitamin C, Not Prison

New insights into the physiology and pharmacology of vitamin C with suggestions about investigating intravenous ascorbate in the treatment of cancer.

The proposed studies are fraught with possibilities of not making it work if previous patterns of investigating ascorbate are utilized. One of the frequent problems of investigators who have contacted me about investigating ascorbate is that the investigational committees, ethics committee, or pharmacy committee will not allow the investigator to use adequate doses of ascorbate thereby insuring failure of the project. To learn how to treat many cancers with ascorbate, the investigators should contact Hugh Riordan, M.D. Refusing to do that I would suggest no less than 60-120 grams of sodium ascorbate intravenously rapidly infused at a rate of 60 grams in 2 to 3 hours every day for several months. As the tumor resolves, the infusions may possibly be dropped to 2 times a week for a long time. One caution is that if the patient has not been taking ascorbate orally in fairly large doses, they should be started on oral ascorbic acid very slowly if there is widespread metastasis. This caution is because about one out of 100 tumors will suddenly drop dead at the sight of ascorbate and the sudden death of a large tumor mass may kill the patient. This caution was noted in Cameron and Pauling's Vitamin C and Cancer. Additionally, I would suggest a overall nutritional support plan that Hugh Riordan, M.D. could help with. Especially important in addition to the basic nutrients is alpha lipoic acid 100 mg 3 times a day.

Polio Cured with Intravenous Vitamin C

POLIO CURED IN 1948

Fred Klenner, M.D. Cured Polio in 1948 with Intravenous Sodium Ascorbate.

WHO Says One Polio Strain Eradicated but there are 2 strains remaining affecting more than 28,000 cases a year. Why are not the more than 28,000 cases a year treated with intravenous sodium ascorbate which would cure most of them? You know, of course, that how to cure polio was published in 1949? You didn't know that? I wonder why not. There has never been a paper to counter Klenner's clinical observations. I wonder why not.

Polio Victims Suffering Late Relapse

Virus of deadly disease spreads in Iran

Here we go again, another hemorrhagic fever. These are diseases that involve so many free radicals rapidly that they cause an acute induced scurvy situation and bleeding starts all over the body. The hemorrhagic fevers can be countered with massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate. However, recognition of this fact would bring the general public to the conclusion that massive doses of ascorbate would be helpful in all infectious diseases and that would be a financial disaster for all the drug companies. Remember that polio was cured back in 1948 and that was kept secrete because of the polio industry. The problem is now that if some country such as Iran listened to all this, it would not take a genius to figure out that ascorbate would be a very important weapon in bacteriologic warfare. Again I make the offer that if any allied military source or, like for instance, the CDC will listen to all this and do something about it for the benefit of the public, I will take all references to this of the website. So far, no takers. One of these days, either deliberately or accidentally, one of these hemorrhagic fevers is going pandemic and we are going to be caught with our pants down when the solution is so easy. Are the profits of the drug companies all that important?

British Commuter bitten by a tropical spider

It is too bad that this woman was not treated with massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate. This would have undoubtedly taken care of this problems shortly. The spider bite itself would have been immediately detoxified, any allergic reaction would have been blocked, and any infection would be more rapidly eliminated. Even if antibiotics were necessary to treat an infection the spectrum of activity of the antibiotic would be broadened and any allergic reaction to the antibiotic would be blocked. See the comment on the next entry. See the part of the article by Klenner on spider bites.

Pat Coleby on Vitamin C Treatment for SNAKE BITES

If you love animals, you should read this. And when you realize that this works in dogs and other animals, why is it not used with humans. It is interesting that these findings are being made in a different continent, Australia. It appears that facts are facts in every part of the world. I have had the experience in treating a warehouse worker with a recluse spider bite where he would have sloughed out down to bone part of his forearm where bitten. However, because of massive doses of vitamin C, you could not see where he was bitten in 24 hours.

Yellow jackets swarm, kill man

At least the case of the boy that survived for 7 hours before getting even sick should have been given massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate. The ascorbate will detoxify the toxin from the sting and will prevent allergic reactions when used in massive doses. See the part of the article by Klenner on bee stings.

ECSTACY

Ascorbic Acid Prevents 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) (Ecstacy)-Induced Hydroxyl Radical Formation and the Behavioral and Neurochemical Consequences of the Depletion of Brain 5-HT

Although this study was done on rats (an ascorbate producing animal) anything that works on rats should work even better in humans. The brain of a human who takes ecstacy cannot be proportionately much larger than a rat (rats are smart enough not to take ecstacy voluntarily) but in addition, since humans do not make ascorbate, they should be benefited even more than rats.
DEA Summary on Ecstacy

Flesh Eating Bacteria

Flesh eating rash that killed woman called rare

This disease would undoubtedly be ameliorated by massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate. This is because step toxin seems neutralized instantly by sufficient doses of ascorbate. I come to this conclusion because of my experience with strep throats and scarlet fever. It turns out that the usual case of scarlet fever is the easiest disease of all to cure with massive doses of ascorbate. This is because scarlet fever is caused by a allergic reaction to a minute amount of step toxin released by a strep infection which has been left over from an infection which is usually already gone. The ascorbate instantly neutralizes that minute amount of strep toxin so that the disease immediately resolves, sometimes in 15 minutes. In the case of these flesh eating rashes caused by streptococcus, the massive doses of ascorbate would have to be administered until the disease resolves because the infection continues to release toxin until the bacteria is killed. Massive doses of ascorbate also has the advantage of broadening the spectrum of activity of penicillin and prevents allergic reactions to penicillin. I would recommend starting with at least 180 grams of sodium ascorbate (60 grams in 500 cc lactated Ringers in 8 hours 3 times a day). The dosage should be increased and given more rapidly if the rash and fever does not resolve in a few hours. It is possible that the rate should be increased to 60 grams in 500 cc of lactated Ringers in 4 hours or even more rapidly if necessary.
In cases where there is some other bacteria involved rather than or in addition to streptococcus, the massive doses of ascorbate would neutralize free radicals preventing free radical deaths if the ascorbate is given soon enough and fast enough. It would increase the spectrum of activity of the appropriate antibiotics and prevent allergic reactions to them.

Bubonic Plague NEWS

Bubonic Plague Creates Stir In East

The increasing interesting thing is why, with all the talk about massive doses of vitamin C, particularly massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate, being useful in the treatment of acute infectious diseases, won't anyone try to treat these infectious diseases with those massive doses. The answer is obvious, to protect the interests of the drug industry. The genocidal drug companies have managed to get CODEX passed in Europe and it will not be long before they try it in the United States. They have got to outlaw vitamins before the public finds out the truth about how many diseases can be cured with them.
Bubonic Plague Creates Stir In East NY Couple Likely Have Bubonic Plague

Wouldn't be nice to demonstrate how rapidly these patients would get well on massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate along with the standard antibiotic treatments. That would eliminate all the free radicals that cause most of the symptoms and death. Although these cases apparently are not part of a bioterrorist attack, it would be very useful to demonstrate the effectiveness of this ascorbate treatment in case of a bioterrorist attack. Plague could be mixed with some respiratory disease to make it spread rapidly and millions would die if massive doses of intravenous ascorbate were not used. But the trouble is that if this were demonstrated, it would be apparent how effective massive doses of intravenous ascorbate was in all acute infectious diseases and this would be a financial disaster for all the drug industry.

US health officials keeping an eye on potential bubonic plague exposure

Note by RFC: All of these severe acute infectious diseases do great damage and kill partly because of free radicals. If these free radicals are eliminated the disease runs a short, more benign course. This neutralization of the deadly free radicals can be accomplished by intravenous sodium ascorbate. I would think that 120 to 180 grams of sodium ascorbate intravenously per 24 hours until much better followed by bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid for several more days until the patient feels well would be indicated. This will not conflict with the appropriate antibiotic and make allergic reactions to the antibiotic non-existent.

MENINGITIS NEWS

Football players spread meningitis

In these cases, all those exposed and certainly all those given Cipro should be given bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid. With the first symptoms of anything, these people should be given massive doses of sodium ascorbate intravenously in addition to the appropriate antibiotic. This should prevent the free radical damage to the brain and free radical deaths.

Study Finds University Students In Dormitories At Increased Risk Of Meningitis

College students please read this, you should have enough brains to use massive doses of vitamin C even if most older people cannot figure this out. If you get ill, use oral ascorbic acid and if you are really severely ill see if you can get some physician to give you intravenous vitamin C in addition to the standard care. With meningitis, do not rely on the C alone, take the standard care. However, high doses of C taken soon enough will eliminate the free radicals that might kill you or damage your brain. College students, please pass this information onto your friends.

Meningitis Scare Fills Clinic Lines

These patients should be given intravenous vitamin C along with the standard treatments including antibiotics where indicated. The IVC would ameliorate the disease considerably and probably save some lives. Sufficiently large amounts of ascorbate easily cross the blood brain barrier and protect the brain and spinal cord from free radical damage.

Ohio to Begin Meningitis Shots

Great. but best not to take immunizations when you are sick like with a cold. In any event take large doses of ascorbic acid orally when you receive an immunization.

One dead, at least three others are infected with meningitis

It does not matter what causes the free radicals, intravenous sodium ascorbate in adequate amounts will neutralize those free radicals.

Massive rise in lethal form of meningitis

This disease is made more deadly because of the "acute induced scurvy" involved. This means that intravenous sodium ascorbate and later bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid should be administered along with the appropriate antibiotic. Not only does the ascorbate broaden the spectrum of activity of the antibiotics against bacteria and works synergistically with the antibiotic, but it avoids allergic reactions to the antibiotic. The susceptibility of sick people to allergic reactions is because of the up-regulation of the immune system while you are sick. This up-regulation is caused by free radicals. If the free radicals are neutralized by massive doses of ascorbate, the immune system, as far as allergic reactions are concerned, is down-regulated so that allergic reactions to the antibiotics do not occur. However, unlike steroids that universally down-regulate the immune system, ascorbate up-regulates the ability of white cells to kill viruses and bacteria.

The incidence of meningitis "surges" after the flu because the acute induced scurvy induced by the flu decreases the ability of the body to fight off the meningitis bacteria.

Meningitis Campaign: Too Much For Too Few?

This article is interesting because it is cost accounting the value of human lives. It is ironic in that a disease that can be treated with intravenous sodium ascorbate in combination with the appropriate antibiotics is being considered too expensive to vaccinate against because more die of road accidents, suicides, and AIDS. Ok, but when a case of meningitis occurs, why not treat it with ascorbate? There have to be some hidden costs of treating with ascorbate for them not to use it. Cannot we see around the possible profit to a drug company. Would it be so terrible to treat the dying cases with ascorbate. OK, OK, if you cured a case of meningitis with IVC, it might occur to a child that IVC might cure a lot of other things, so I guess we have to accept these deaths. Too bad.

Measles Kills 45 in India; May Be New Type

Ascorbic acid in large doses orally will ameliorate measles. In cases where there is inflammation of the brain, intravenous sodium ascorbate should be used. These types of diseases kill by way of free radicals. This is a very simple situation to solve. You just give massive doses of ascorbate in sufficient amounts to provide the electrons to neutralize the free radicals. The person's immune system then makes short work of the virus. This works with all acute self-limiting viral diseases because they all kill or cause symptoms and complications with free radicals.

Legionnaire's Disease

Legionnaire's Disease - Probable Cure

The president of one of the companies that I have worked with in the past told me this story: In 1976, he and his friend went to a conference in Philadelphia. A few days after he came home, he came down with what he thought was bronchitis. He said that he thought that it would be a good time to try "Cathcart's titrating to bowel tolerance" with vitamin C. So he began taking ascorbic acid in large doses (actually he did not get to tolerance at first). The next day he was not well but he was still working. So he raised the dose. Still no diarrhea; he was not well but still working. Then he heard that his friend had died!!! He went to his doctor who tested his blood and prescribed him erythromycin. The first dose made him so sick that he did not take more erythromycin. He increased the dose of C and after a few days was all well. The blood work had come back by this time and it showed he had had Legionnaire's disease. The conference he had gone to was that famous Legionnaire's meeting. His friend had died of the disease.

OK gang, why don't you try this? With a death rate of 20%-50% what could it hurt? Those who are not yet hospitalized can try the titrating to bowel tolerance method (Do see your doctor and take his prescription probably of erythromycin.) However, if you are in the hospital and can get your physician's cooperation, be given intravenous sodium ascorbate. Recovery should be quite rapid. It cannot hurt and may save your life. There is no conflict between ascorbate and antibiotics and the ascorbate will, most probably, block any true allergic reaction to the antibiotic.

Bug outbreak 'treated like murder'

Maybe it should be treated like murder but who is the murderer? Maybe it should be those who refused to investigate the healing power of intravenous sodium ascorbate. With all the talk about ascorbate curing viral diseases even by the likes of Linus Pauling, how dare the investigators refuse to do even one study on massive doses of ascorbate. Easy, they want to protect the profits of the drug industry at any cost of lives.

British Legionnaire's Disease Cases Reach 47

Let them die on and on, anything but letting the public know how infectious diseases in general can be cured with massive doses of ascorbate. Feed the public studies on ridiculously low doses of ascorbate to prove it is of no value. Anything to protect the profits of the drug industry.

Britain's worst outbreak of legionnaires' disease grips town

In the case of Legionjaire's disease, it is not just the theoretical fact that if you neutralize all the free radicals caused by a disease that the disease will be cured, it is that in this case we actually have a case where a patient used massive doses of ascorbic acid orally who recovered uneventfully. In a crisis massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate will be more effective. Let's see which is more important in Great Britain, the lives of these patients or the profits of the drug companies.

Frantic over Scarlet Fever

Scarlet Fever Found in Seven D.C. Schools

Fortunately, acute Scarlet Fever is usually one of the easiest diseases for ascorbate to cure. This is even after the rash and fever occurs. It is so easy that apparently the ascorbate in adequate amounts neutralizes the strep toxin instantly. With the toxin gone, there is nothing for the immune system to react to. The rash, fever, etc., disappear within a few hours. Penicillin should be used to kill any residual beta hemolytic streptococcus but the dramatic resolution of symptoms has to be due to the ascorbate because it is so dramatic. The ascorbate also protects the patient from allergic reactions to penicillin. Because the disease can otherwise be so damaging, intravenous sodium ascorbate should be used although I suspect that oral ascorbic acid to bowel tolerance would markedly ameliorate the disease.

6 D.C. Students Have Scarlet Fever

The Plague Dogs: The Black Death Is Decimating Montana Prairie Dogs

This disease involves free radicals. Therefore, massive doses of ascorbate would ameliorate the disease. During the acute phase of the disease sodium ascorbate intravenously would markedly decrease the symptoms. The appropriate antibiotics should be utilized. The ascorbate will eliminate allergic reactions to the antibiotics. Later, maintenance bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid should be utilized.

By using intravenous sodium ascorbate properly, the death rate from this virus would drop to almost zero.

Mosquitoes Are Not Only A Pest But A Huge
Health Threat

I do not have experience with malaria but massive doses of ascorbate are bound to ameliorate the disease. It might be that with malaria, the use of massive doses of ascorbate would broad the spectrum of activity of the appropriate antibiotics as it does with resistant bacterial diseases. I do have the experience to say that massive doses of ascorbate will cure acute self-limiting viral diseases. Ascorbate in massive doses will cure or ameliorate a disease in proportion to how important free radicals are in the perpetuation or symptoms of the disease. The secret of the massive doses is that we are throwing away the vitamin C for the electrons carried by the vitamin C. We are wasting much of the vitamin C for the electrons carried. When free radicals are surrounded by a sufficient reducing redox potential (free electrons), they are neutralized. This is a matter of chemistry. It always works.

US facing 'silent epidemic' of hepatitis C

Since acute hepatitis A, B, C, etc., is easily cured with massive doses of ascorbate, intravenously and with follow-up with oral ascorbic acid, it is tragic that it is not properly utilized. Hepatitis C is a special problem because only about a quarter of cases present as acute (when it would be easily cured). Chronic hepatitis C is more of a problem, however with massive doses of ascorbic acid orally, a no sugar diet, vitamin E, selenium, silymarin, and alpha lipoic acid among other nutrients, I have never seen a case to go onto acute hepatic necrosis or cancer of the liver.

Staph bug grows drug resistant

New Type of Drug-Resistant Bacteria Reaches England

If massive doses of sodium ascorbate are used intravenously, it will invariably prevent free radical deaths and ameliorate or cure the disease. What is important in this case is that massive doses of ascorbate vastly broadens the spectrum of activity of antibiotics while preventing allergic reactions to those same antibiotics. By neutralizing the free radicals in the tissues involved in the disease, swelling which cuts down on circulation allows better penetration of the antibiotic but more importantly reverses the acute induced scurvy in the involved tissues so that the patients own white cells can resume fighting the infection effectively.

Mystery Fever Hits British Troops

It does not matter what the cause of the fever is, if massive doses of sodium ascorbate are used intravenously, it will invariably prevent free radical deaths and ameliorate or cure the disease. The ascorbate should be started even before the definitive diagnosis is made. If after the definitive diagnosis is made there is anything left of the disease (it is likely to have been cured by this time) then the standard treatment can be added to the ascorbate treatment. The ascorbate would even block any allergic reactions to any necessary antibiotics. Let's see if the British value their soldiers more than the profits of the drug companies. I will not hold my breath but if anyone wants to consult on this, I am available to allied military.

Scientists identify virus afflicting British
troops in Afghanistan

So, the organism has been identifies as a virus. This means that antibiotics will do no good. Believe me, it would be cheaper to give these men a couple of days of intravenous sodium ascorbate in a field hospital than to ship them out somewhere. Their recovery would be very rapid and reliable. But they will use drugs, after all this is the point, sell drugs.

Girl dies of rare virus; 2 other deaths probed: Disease believed to be spread by rodents

So here is one of these diseases that kill by overwhelming the victim with free radicals. Now it is here in California. What harm could there possibly be in neutralizing all those free radicals with massive doses of ascorbate? IVC followed by bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid by mouth would be obviously beneficial.

Humans cannot make ascorbate in their bodies but can make it in their chemical plants but so far most lack the intelligence to take it in large amounts necessary to cure diseases such as this..

Hospitals told to make emergency plans to cope with biological terrorism attacks

While this report is about the danger in the UK it is concluded that the danger is greater in the U.S. I can guarantee that if physicians would learn how to use massive doses of ascorbate, the deaths and injuries from such an attack would be less.

Aid worker with suspected Lassa fever is critical

The question is whether his doctors will give intravenous C and whether, if others in the hospital start dying, will they be given intravenous C. Will they allow the acute induced scurvy kill him?

If virus resurfaces, threat could grow, entomologist says

REPORT: Almost 2,000 people may have been infected with the West Nile virus in New York City...

Return of the killer virus that spread terror in New York

Here it comes again. Will they use adequate doses of sodium ascorbate intravenously this time to cure the acute induced scurvy that makes the disease frequently fatal. By adequate doses of sodium ascorbate, I mean around 180 Grams of sodium ascorbate intravenously every 24 hours until the patient is well. Low doses will not work except if they use low doses and it fails, the study would be a publishable paper. The high, adequate doses in the past have not been publishable but maybe one of these years.......... The reason it takes such huge doses is that the massive amounts of free radicals made by these diseases that cause acute induced systemic scurvy are so great that it takes massive doses of ascorbate at a rapid rate to neutralize the free radicals being produced at a rapid rate. Small doses will not accomplish this. Why is that so difficult to understand?

Massachusetts on mosquito alert

The question is whether they will let the West Nile encephalitis kill anyone or will they use intravenous C on their patients before the acute induced scurvy kills them? How long will it be before the public learns that acute self-limiting viral diseases, even polio, can be cured with intravenous vitamin C. Even in bacterial diseases and parasitic diseases, intravenous vitamin C, in these cases along with the appropriate antibiotic, will prevent the deaths by acute induced scurvy. When a patient shows up with a high fever and is in danger of dying, intravenous vitamin C should be started even before what the organism is, is discovered. The intravenous C will broaden the spectrum of activity of the antibiotic and also prevent allergic reactions to the antibiotic.

No kidding, why don't they use massive doses of ascorbate (the cheapest and most effective antioxidant) that I have known for years to be effective against asthma.

US Biological Attack Said Inevitable

Massive doses of ascorbic acid orally and sodium ascorbate intravenously would dramatically reduce the morbidity and mortality from such as attack.

US Intelligence Sees Growing Disease Threat

We had better quit ignoring the Massive Doses of Vitamin C cures of many of these diseases before it is too late. Even if an epidemic broke out which was 90% fatal, it would take too long for the medical profession to get its act together. I do not look forward to a small population of vitamin C takers left to populate the world.

What Makes An Epidemic An Epidemic

An epidemic of the flu in a country is where they are too dumb to know how to use ascorbate properly.

It's Not A Flu Epidemic - Yet

In the US the worst is yet to come . This epidemic is totally unnecessary because we can cure the flu with massive doses of ascorbic acid orally and, in the worst cases (or cases who also have ulcers, gastritis, etc., preventing taking adequate dose of ascorbic acid), with intravenous sodium ascorbate. The flu virus damages mitochondria in the affected tissues which cause the mitochondria to make free radicals. These free radicals damage adjacent mitochondria which cause them to make more free radicals. A free radical cascade results. This massive amount of free radicals destroys all the vitamin C in the affected tissues. Without vitamin C the white cells cannot eat up the viruses. The only thing that saves most is that after a week or so, the antibodies destroy the viruses. Antibodies are turned on by free radicals. In the meantime, the "acute induced scurvy " in the affected tissues may result in pneumonia, sinusitis, otitis media, etc. All this can be averted with massive doses of ascorbate. What we are doing with the truly massive doses of ascorbate is throwing away the vitamin C for the electrons carried by the vitamin C. We are driving the electrons in high concentration (forcing a reducing redox potential) into the affected tissues and neutralizing the free radicals. Incidentally, it also provides enough vitamin C in the affected tissues so that the white cells come out fighting mad and destroy the viruses immediately. This phenomenon is a threshold phenomenon: a high enough concentration of ascorbate and its electrons must be achieved, and then suddenly the free radicals are neutralized. Lesser doses will not accomplish this. If done properly, the massive doses of ascorbate will cure the disease.

20,000 may die from new flu in UK

For God's sake, they can use intravenous sodium ascorbate and stop this carnage. These patients should be given up to three bottles of 60 grams of sodium ascorbate per 24 hours until they are much better, then continue bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid until well. If the doctors will not give the sodium ascorbate intravenously then take the bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid by mouth and if you have a strong stomach, it will probably save your life.

Flu victims stored in lorry morgues

This is tragic. These patients are dying of acute induced scurvy. Intravenous ascorbate should be used in all these flu cases. Ascorbate would markedly reduce the death rate.

Virulent Flu Strain Taxes Hospitals

This Flu is obviously causing Acute Induced Scurvy and this causes the spread into bronchitis, pneumonia, etc., and we will be very lucky if there are no deaths among some elderly. All this could be averted with massive doses of ascorbic acid orally or in severe cases intravenous sodium ascorbate.

True Y2K Bug Hits: Influenza

This is ridiculous. Many people will die if ascorbate is not used.

From Medical Tribune: ‘C’ Is For Crucial Vitamin C is the most important water-soluble nutrient, by Ross Pelton.

Comment by RFC: The Medical Tribune, which under the guidance of the great humanitarian and medical prophet Arthur M. Sackler, M.D., followed my early work on vitamin C ( 1, 2, 3), is still in the forefront in reporting the importance of nutritional and integrative medicine ( 1, 2).

Concerning the resistant tuberculosis coming out of prison camps in Russia and its inevitable spread around the world: there is good evidence that ascorbate would greatly assist in the treatment of this disease.

Concerning the Viral Encephalitis in New York (and apparently people in Connecticut should be ready with this also):

It would be reasonable to try massive doses of intravenous ascorbate in these encephalitis patients because of the report in the two papers below by Klenner of his being able to cure encephalitis with intravenous C. See The Treatment of Poliomyelitis and Other Virus Diseases with Vitamin C and Observations On the Dose and Administration of Ascorbic Acid When Employed Beyond the Range Of A Vitamin In Human Pathology. Encephalitis virus may spread south.

Acute Induced Systemic Scurvy Watch

            Comment by RFC: Note in all of these cases that develop into a hemorrhagic fever, the toxicity of the disease is so severe as to deplete all of the bodies of vitamin C, this results in acute induced systemic scurvy which results in hemorrhaging from many tissues of the body. The administration of intravenous vitamin C in combination with the standard treatments for the disease would reduce the fatality rates of these diseases. In all these diseases, if the serum vitamin C were to be measured, it would be found to be zero. This then results in the breakdown of all tissues requiring collagen which includes blood vessels. Hemorrhage results (a classic sign of scurvy.)

German student with Lassa fever critical, fellow-travelers come
forward

The reason these patients hemorrhage is because of "acute induced scurvy." They should be treated with intravenous sodium ascorbate and then ascorbic acid orally as they recover. A lot of people may die unnecessarily of this disease some day soon if this treatment with ascorbate for infectious diseases is not recognized.

Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers, 15 viral diseases in 4 families of viruses have been classified as hemorrhagic fevers. What they have in common is that they all suddenly deplete all of the victims vitamin C causing acute induced systemic scurvy.

Netscape Search on Scurvy

Comment by RFC: Note that these classic cases of scurvy are the result of chronic deficiency of vitamin C. Imagine what happens when a severe infectious diseasse wipes out all of the vitamin C in the body in a few hours. The capillaries hemorrhage all over the body. Some patients with a disease such as Dengue Fever, if they started out in very good health or have early treatment, etc., may not go onto the hemorrhagic stage; but if the disease is able to totally deplete the vitamin C of the body, shortly the hemorrhages start and the white cells cannot fight the virus. Death is almost certain unless the acute systemic scurvy is treated with massive doses of C. The doses have to be massive because the massive amounts of free radicals generated by the disease process destroy the vitamin C at such a rate that the doses based upon the usual concepts of how vitamin C should be administered are many times inadequate.

Note that the variable results of some of the studies referred to all can be explained by the size of the doses used. We now know that it is better to overdose, especially with any acute problem, because vitamin C is non toxic and cheap. Therefore, use a massive dose and it works. Pauling's last book, How to Live Longer and Feel Better, refers to my work with bowel tolerance ascorbic acid in seven pages. He had become convinced of the value of the massive doses. The importance of the increasing bowel tolerance phenomenon is that it reveals the magnitude of the free radicals generated by various disease, injury and toxic conditions. Therefore the varying massive doses of ascorbate to neutralize those free radicals.

Comment by RFC: This is a most interesting article that reveals the ulterior motives behind this smear on vitamin C. It is worse than I thought. Link to the article above.

Autism is not the only brain damage done by mercury, it lowers the I.Q. below what it would have been normally. If you fully immunize your child, you may not have to pay for a college education. Of course, you may have to pay for a lot for special education and other medical problems.

If after reading the links, you still feel you must vaccinate your child, make very sure that the vaccines used do not contain mercury (the name for the mercury preservative is Thimerosal).

Stall as long as you can so that the child's immune system can mature more before it is insulted. Wait until the child is at least 2 years old.

Stall as long as you can so the child can get bigger. This will lower the concentration of mercury that reaches the brain.

Never have your child vaccinated when she/he is even slightly ill.

Never allow more than one vaccination at a time.

It is possible that the mercury poisoning of the immune system makes the child susceptible to the brain and gut infection from the live MMR vaccines.

Especially if your child has been immunized and shows some brain abnormality, it would be wise not to allow mercury amalgam dental fillings.
