Finally...someone is talking about Vitamin C. I don't think people out there in this industry understand the importance of Vitamin C to human health and civilization itself.

In 2022, I actually had a very prominent internet "celebrity" scientist tell me that he didn't think Vitamin C was an important nutrient for human beings, and that it wasn't actually discovered anyway. I was shocked but, honestly, not surprised. Most people in health care don't study Vitamin C chemistry, and for that matter, neither do they study Niacin chemistry.

That is, in my opinion, one of the great failings of health care in the past 100 years. Vitamin C and Vitamin B3 could easily replace 6 or maybe even 7 of the top selling drugs in the US right now, and the rest probably from specific probiotics.

I am subscribed to almost 100 health related or alternative medicine newsletters that I get daily or weekly. This is the second one in three years about Vitamin C. Both of them were from Sayer, so I tip my cap to him for that. But its not enough.

And when I presented my discoveries to prominent "Vitamin C people" where I was able to detox mold toxins of enormous elevation using intravenous Vitamin C in 12 days, I was met with extreme belligerence because I was not a medical doctor (only a lowly "natural medicine" doctor from a no-name school). My research has since been buried. Now that Cellcore pretty much controls anything to do with mold detox, I doubt that anyone would be interested in what I found out. It would bankrupt the company and make a lot of people really pissed off that a nobody like me figured this thing out. It would just be met with derision and rejection because I am a nobody.

So, it's good to see an article on this biochemical. But the entire industry should be focused on this, and not just essentially toss it a bone every few hundred thousand posts or newsletters. It should be the focus of every alternative or "holistic" or naturopathic health approach. It isn't, and I can't see that changing any time soon.

TG for this site: doctoryourself.com or you can read the full book, Niacin: The Real Story, 2nd edition, 2023! I used it in all my MS papers and my nutrition thesis! It was a godsend for me!

I've been into health research 64 years...and still learning. I just put out a health article today...you might find of interest: Is There a Science of Nutrition? barbaracharis.substack.com

Thanks for the interest. I'll post another comment later, but for now, in my substack archives, you will find two interviews with Kurt Woeller where I discuss some of my findings. One is a video and the other is audio. I am likely going to be publishing something about this topic this month on my substack and website.

What we have to realize and consider is that hormones and other biochemicals are not "repaired" by Vitamin C, technically speaking. Vitamin C is responsible for the creation and bioactivity of many biomolecules, which includes hormones, neurotransmitters, and "Vitamin" d. Vitamin C is a bioregulator of the Hydroxylase enzyme system, which is responsible for the conversion and recycling of hormones and neurotransmitters.

It is the absence of Vitamin C that leads to the excessive damage of hormones and neurotransmitters. This doesn't happen in other mammals that make C; the type of hyper oxidation that smashes human hormones is unique to humans and other non-converters like Guinea Pigs. Considering this, it changes the way we should be looking at hormones, BHRT, and neurological disorders, as well as stress, sex hormones, and so on.

When you also consider that mycotoxins are essentially exogenous hormones designed by the creature to disable and disrupt the host hormone and neurotransmitter systems, the importance of Vitamin C against mold and fungi is accentuated. When I tried to approach several "experts" on mold, disease, health care, whatever... and the significant findings I I had with regards to Vitamin C, they summarily rejected this notion and some "Vitamin C" experts refused to even entertain my discoveries because I was not a "medical doctor". This stuff needs more research, attention, and exploration and when I approach "experts" and other people in the industry about it, I get the stunned silence and deer-in-headlights look, and they won't touch it with a ten foot pole, and I think, because if there is serious validity to the Vitamin C/Hormone and Vitamin C/Mold detox phenomena then it would render their "expert" methods obsolete or at best relegated to secondary support.

Either way, my entire career has been staked on things like this, which results in me being an outlaw that noone wants to go near. Josey Wales, eat your heart out!

You get vitamin C from RAW food. Steak tartare, raw apple. Heat destroys vitamin C.

Susan Humphries has been talking and teaching about the power of Vit C for decades. It can fix anything.

I love this article! My father‘s mentor was Linus Pauling who was the vitamin C King and suggested high doses of vitamin C for healing of many things. My father used to give me and my sister ascorbic acid crystals every day and I thank him for it now! This article is fantastic at showing how truly phenomenal vitamin C is to our beautiful bodies!!! thank you Sayer for the truth as well as the walk down memory lane✨🥰

Thanks Sayer Ji! Resurrecting Youth was a great article. I decided to do a little more research on limes...which saved the British sailors in the 19th century. It was the reason that the sailors were called 'Limeys.' Sailors who traveled long distances without fresh food died from scurvy...a disease of malnutrition. Symptoms: weakness, fatigue, poor wound healing, decreased red blood cells, gum disease, etc. Vitamin C is most important. I use limes myself daily, but avoid both cruciferous (deteriorates thyroid), and nightshades (damage the joints, cartilage). There are many natural foods that can cause problems. Overtime, I have eliminated whole categories of foods in order to find the key to health.

I did Creator-guided nutritional consultations for 28 years...nobody could handle cruciferous vegetables. There is a substance in cruciferous vegetables called thiourea , which slowly deteriorates the thyroid gland...and if people keep on eating it...will wipe it out. It affects the metabolism. I could not lose an ounce of weight, until I eliminated them.

My mother majored in nutrition and homemaking in college.

When I was a child I remember her telling us to make sure we had plenty of color on our plates. Now I also know why we ate meals everyday that included some or all of the foods in your list,

Best whole-food sources of vitamin C:

Thanks for sharing your insights and knowledge with us all and helping us to stay healthy. And a big thanks to my Mother as well !!!

This was a great article on C. I’m also a big fan of Thomas Levy’s work on C, and have read several of his books including Curing the Incurable. I was super interested in how vitamin C can prevent atherosclerosis!

Perplexity AI observes that the 1993 test tube experiment has not been replicated or extended to mouse studies, much less humans. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/is-this-still-correct-the-1993-FUz2d3DqRnyVVKIRKdzEoQ#0

I’ve been big believer in Vitamin C my whole life. Was definitely my top hero in the vitamin world. I’ve always taken it, was very depressing to find out about the oxylates produced from higher doses. Wish there was a way around that so I could do higher doses.

Is it true that food sources of C deteriorate quickly once the item is picked? Then we have transport and sitting in the bin, then the fridge?

I didn't spot ascorbate in the article, is it inferior?
