Vitamin C Therapeutics

Vitamin C Therapy

Home VITAMIN C HAS BEEN KNOWN TO CURE OVER 30 MAJOR

DISEASES FOR OVER 50 YEARS

 

If so, why haven't you heard more about it? Why

haven't more doctors used Vitamin C as medicine?

 

Progress takes time, unfortunately. Fresh fruit was

known to cure scurvy by 1753, yet governments ignored

the fact for nearly 100 years. Countless thousands

died in the meantime. The 19th century doctor who

first advocated washing one's hands between patients

died ignored and in disgrace with the medical

profession. Toxic mercury was used as medicine into

the twentieth century. And so it has been.

 

The first physician to aggressively use Vitamin C to

cure diseases was Frederick R. Klenner, M.D. beginning

back in the early 1940's. Dr. Klenner consistently

cured chicken pox, measles, mumps, tetanus and polio

with huge doses of the vitamin. While vaccines are

now available for these illnesses, please remember

this was not the case in the 1940's.

 

The following is a list of the conditions that Dr.

Klenner successfully treated with aggressive Vitamin C

therapy:

 

Pneumonia

Encephalitis

Herpes Zoster (shingles)

Herpes Simplex

Mononucleosis

Pancreatitis

Hepatitis

Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever

Bladder Infection

Alcoholism

Arthritis

Some Cancers

Leukemia

Atherosclerosis

Ruptured Intervertebral Disc

High Cholesterol

Corneal Ulcer

Diabetes

Glaucoma

Schizophrenia

Burns and secondary infections

Heat Stroke

Radiation Burns

Heavy Metal Poisoning (Mercury, Lead)

Venomous Bites (insects, snakes)

Multiple Sclerosis

Chronic Fatigue

Complications of Surgery

 

This seems like an impossible list of Vitamin C cures.

At this point, you can either dismiss the subject or

investigate further. Dr. Klenner chose to

investigate. The result? He used massive doses of

Vitamin C for over forty years of family practice. He

wrote dozens of medical papers on the subject. A

complete list of them is in the Clinical Guide to the

Use of Vitamin C, edited by Lendon H. Smith, M.D.,

Life Sciences Press, Tacoma, WA (1988).

 

It is difficult to ignore his success, but it has been

done. Dr. Klenner wrote: " Some physicians would stand

by and see their patient die rather than use ascorbic

acid (Vitamin C) because in their finite minds it

exists only as a vitamin. "

 

Vitamin C is remarkably safe even in enormously high

doses. Compared to commonly used prescription drugs,

side effects are virtually nonexistent. It does not

cause kidney stones. In fact, Vitamin C increases

urine flow and favorably lowers the pH to help keep

stones from forming. William J. McCormick, M.D. used

Vitamin C since the late 1940's to prevent and treat

kidney stones. Vitamin C does not significantly raise

oxalate levels, and uric acid stones have never

resulted from its use, either. Said Dr. Klenner:

" The ascorbic acid/kidney stone story is a myth. "

 

How much Vitamin C is an effective therapeutic dose?

Dr. Klenner gave up to 300,000 milligrams (mg) per

day. Generally, he gave 350 to 700 mg per kilogram

body weight per day. That is a lot of Vitamin C.

 

But then again, look at that list of successes.

 

Dr. Klenner emphasized that small amounts do not work.

He said, " If you want results, use adequate ascorbic

acid (Vitamin C). "

 

If you want to learn more about the therapeutic uses

of vitamin C, the following books are best:

 

How To Live Longer and Feel Better, by Linus Pauling,

Ph.D., (Freeman, 1986)

The Healing Factor: Vitamin C Against Disease, by

Irwin Stone (Putnam, 1972)

The Vitamin C Connection, by Emanuel Cheraskin, M.D.

et al (Harper and Row, 1983)

Clinical Guide to the Use of Vitamin C, by Lendon H.

Smith, M.D. (cited above)

 

Physicians and other health professionals may wish to

read papers by William J. McCormick, M.D., Linus

Pauling, Ph.D, Abram Hoffer, M.D., and recent

articles by Robert F. Cathcart III, M.D. The Journal

of Orthomolecular Medicine is especially recommended.
