important antioxidants - Vitamin C

A severe deficiency caused the deaths of thousands of sailors before Captain Cook realized that there was a factor in fresh fruit and vegetables that was essential for long voyages. In fact scurvy is now thought to extend to around 80 odd 'free radical' diseases. Vitamin C is one of the best, and certainly the most widely occurring vitamins, and its safety has been researched for over 60 years. It is in every green leaf and nearly all freshly killed creatures. Only around a dozen assorted animals, birds and fishes (unfortunately man and a few apes figure largely) do not make their own. Essential for good growth, and some studies suggest development of intelligence, Sydney Bush feels that the governments of the world should make it freely available at least to babies and schoolchildren. Excess reliance on carbohydrates and fats (especially polyunsaturates) to the exclusion of fresh fruits and preferably uncooked vegetables, is increasingly thought to contribute to so called 'Western' diseases many of which do not appear to affect 'hunter' gatherers. Vitamin E, almost equally important in quenching free radicals and particularly for protecting our nerve cell walls, heart function and fatty tissues (thought to be more vulnerable to damage by oxidation if excess polyunsaturates are consumed) is also available from the Clinic in 1000iu capsule packs of 30 capsules costing £4.80 + p&p. For more on the 'Free Radical Theory of Ageing and Disease' search for Prof. Denham Harman MD, PhD. University of Nebraska. This illustrious and possibly most remarkable physician of the 20th Century, whose achievements are only matched by his extreme modesty, never received a Nobel prize although the field of research he started back in 1957 is now one of the largest in the world of the history of medicine. Recomended Reading See Jean Carpers excellent book 'Stop Ageing Now', and Linus Pauling's best selling book 'How to Live Longer and Feel Better' which lists 450 research papers and workers in the field. This latter is virtually a text book on Vitamin C. The world's best know proponent of Vitamin C therapy is another remarkable physician, Dr Robert F Cathcart III MD of Los Altos, California. This is both recognized as fundamental to both good medical practice and to preventative medicine. Dr Cathcart is often quoted as saying that if he 'were the Czar of Medicine' he would insist that every hospital doctor responsible for admitting patients, should start every patient on an immediate Vitamin C drip 'whilst he ponders his diagnosis'. Failure to follow this dictum would require a multi-page report on both sides of A4 sheets in the doctor's own handwriting, stating the reasons why he didn't! http://www.orthomed.com
