Information for public interest
 
Vitamin C is marketed by Sydney J Bush in England for the benefit of his contact lens patients who would otherwise suffer more and unnecessary viral infections, (Flu and colds cause eye problems.)

Extra Vitamin C has been shown to slow development of cataract and has been successfully used by physicians at the Rome University Eye Clinic, to treat glaucoma. (Virno et al: 1966; Prof Bietti et al 1966).

Many rodents make up to equivalent of 20 grams (20,000mgs) per DAY!  It is not long since physicians said that 20mgs was enough to prevent scurvy.

Now many physicians themselves take 2,000mgs/day (2 grams) and researchers in the field take anything up to 15 or more grams per day. 

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.

Vitamin C 200 gram pots is pure fine white sodium ascorbate powder without a 'filler'.  It has no sharp taste like the generally cheaper ascorbic acid powder.  It dissolves easily in cold water.  Suitable for putting in any kind of drink.  Confidently expected to be the cheapest Vitamin C in the UK.

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. 

Since Adele Davis wrote her world famous book 'Lets Get Well' in 1996 people have increasingly recognized that she was right when she spotlighted a deficiency of Vitamin E in Western diets.  This is probably associated with a vast variety of seemingly unrelated diseases, now known or suspected to involve free radicals.  She may have been the first person to note the healing of  gastric ulcers (killing the Helicobacter Pylori ? ) even though at the time she was   worried that ascorbic acid would aggravate the ulcers.

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.

He was so far ahead of his colleagues that it took his medical colleagues   20 years to realize that he was right.  Now physically stronger creatures have been genetically bred that make more antioxidants in their own cells and live much longer than the norm...
 

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.

After becoming an internationally celebrated orthopaedic surgeon, this dedicated physician followed on the trail blazed by Dr Fred Klenner who was the first to show that anaphylactic shock could be reversed by injecting sodium ascorbate and that polio paralysis could also be prevented in this way.

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!
