Research into vitamin C is progressing rapidly despite a lack of funding from conventional medicine into its clinical applications. The medical establishment scoffs at orthomolecular medicine, which uses nutrients in large doses to treat disease. This rejection of the orthomolecular approach has little basis in science and reflects a bias at the heart of the status quo.
This book tells the story of how the controversy about vitamin C has grown and continues while the increasing evidence demonstrates the value of the orthomolecular approach. The story of vitamin C is an exciting journey into the workings of science and medicine, the intrigues of political economic influences, and the evolutionary history of humankind. Someday, medicine without vitamin C therapy will be compared to childbirth without sanitation or surgery without anesthetic.
- You’ll see that mega doses of vitamin C have proved to be an effective antibiotic, a nontoxic anticancer agent, and also a treatment for heart disease.
- We’ll explain the real reasons behind conventional medicine’s rejection of vitamin C therapy.
- You’ll meet the pioneers of vitamin C research, who often faced great resistance in their advocacy for the health benefits of this nutrient.
Vitamin C is a simple molecule with powerful effects. If you want to be healthy, you should take enough vitamin C. After reading this book, you will know why and how much.
