Best lecture on IV vitamin C I've ever seen.
-
Wow! That explains why I got so sick. Put in bed after a vitamin c infusion. With a migraine like I've never had. And since then I've had kidney problems. They only checked to see my gene not all the rest of that. And because I'm celiac I am usually mineral deficient anyway. Nobody told me it would dehydrate me either. I had lyme disease during this time. Wow!!! I learn so much from this channel! ❤
-
Very impressive summary in less than 10 minutes. I did not know that the CGM would pick up vitamin C as it has a 5 sided ring, glucose a 6 sided ring.
-
This was a fantastic explanation.
-
Thanks for bringing this to the Table Blessings
-

-
Thank you so much gor this video Dr. I just called around this past weekend for mobile IV therapy due to severe migraine & neck pain thinking the Meyers cocktail IV therapy might help me feel better, but nervous as all heck because I have autoimmune issues.
-

Hello Dr. Anderson, is it necessary to get a G6PD test done before beginning to take a daily oral dose of 1000mg of whole food vitamin C (rose hips powder)? Thank you for all the great information!
-
Fatigue happens because c competes with glucose. When absorb lots of c you can't absorb glucose....so you feel fatigue. We recommend fruit juice
-
What test is preferred to test kidney function? eGFR or Cystanex-C? Also, will CGMs falsely read high dose oral Vit C?
-
I took high dose vit c (acerola cherry extract powder), approx 3g per day and ended up with an oxalate kidney stone six months later. NEVER again.
-
