There is another massage ointment that McGary recommends for bone spurs. I'll see if I can remember it if you really want it. From the sound of the rest of your post I'm NOT sure you want it. >You suggested taking the vitamin C as a supplement, instead of >applying it topically. Most things applied topically do NOT do any good... ....no matter what the skin cream glop in the bottle makers tell you. That is called " advertising " . Now a few solutions applied to the skin do help. I do know that many experiments were done with DMSO, which is a super absorbant and a penetrator... And when you apply it to your skin, you can taste it in your mouth in about 4-7 seconds. That is very quick penetration. ....DMSO can have other things dissolved in it, and then, by the mechanism of the DMSO the vit C would be absorbed...or the nutriants would be aborbed, etc. But those were for real bad and massive burn situations. >My understanding was that some substances, What are the resources of that information?

Which ones? What is the research and verification methods? Now there are some sub-lingual techniques that do work that way, and that's a different story. > Does this not apply to vitamin C I'm not yet clear on which authority that you got your information? >or does vitamin C serve a different function when taken as a >supplement? Vitamin C has many functions, but that is not your question. My question is, " what function does vitamin C have as a rub on solution applied to the skin? " None. Now I am surprised that no one has asked me more important questions, like, " what are the recommended types of Vit c? " , " What are the recommended dosages of Vit C? " , " What are the good effects of Vit C? " , " when are the best times to take Vit C? " , " Isn't Vit C in large amounts useless? " blab, blab, blab... I also appreciated your polite use of NLP language patterns for elicitation of more information. > Brittany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
