For those interested, there is something to learn.? Google ¡°vitamin c klenner¡± and start reading.
Fred Klenner was a general practitioner physician in North Carolina who found that vitamin C cured all of the viral diseases he encountered among his patients.
He administered it via IV injection, in doses most people would consider ¡°large¡±.? 50 to 100 grams of Sodium Ascorbate per day, split among several doses, was routine.
That Google search today produces its first hits on the PubMed national database of papers.? Clicking in I see several familiar titles of papers Klenner published.? But as a non-member I can¡¯t download the papers from PubMed.
Klenner left us approximately 25 published papers.? I¡¯ve found over half of them online.? Another doctor, Robert Cathcart, an orthopaedics physician also became interested in vitamin C and left a lot of material that ?Google can find.? Robert Landwehr left a fairly concise summarization of Klenner¡¯s work in his paper ¡°The Origin of the 42-Year Stonewall of Vitamin C¡± which is readily available.? And Linus Pauling was a prominent advocate for vitamin C, having written two books about it.
I¡¯ve never had vitamin C by intravenous injection, but taking 1 gram tablets works fine.? I have taken 10 grams of vitamin C per day for about 13 years, and much more when ill.? During COVID19 I doubled that for several years, but I¡¯m back to 10 grams again now.? I am a True Believer.? And a converted skeptic.
Hans, if you ever do take that medication by IV drip, please check whether it¡¯s vitamin C they¡¯re administering.? Several years ago I was at a doctor appointment.? I was chattering on about vitamin C to a nurse.? She got an odd look on her face and went away for a bit ¡ then came back with another nurse in tow.? This other nurse said she was from Romania, and that it was common there for doctors and nurses to take vitamin C by intravenous administration when ill.? Very interesting to hear a first-person account from someone in the medical profession.? Also interesting that the story originated in another country.
Vitamin C remains controversial here in America.? My view is this:? Learn what works.? Do what works.
Be well, all.
