Default High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy Proven Effective

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Orthomolecular Medicine News Service, January 5, 2010


High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy Proven Effective
"My doctor doesn't believe in vitamins." Since when is medicine based on
belief?
(OMNS, January 5, 2010) The medical literature has virtually ignored 75
years of physician reports and laboratory and clinical studies on successful
high-dose vitamin C therapy.

Effective doses are high doses, often 1,000 times more than the US
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) or Daily Reference Intake (DRI). It is a
cornerstone of medical science that dose affects treatment outcome. This
premise is accepted with pharmaceutical drug therapy, but not with vitamin
therapy. Most unsuccessful vitamin C research has used inadequate, low
doses. Low doses do not get clinical results.

Investigators using vitamin C in high doses have consistently reported
excellent results. High doses were advocated almost immediately after
ascorbic acid was isolated by Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, M.D. (1893-1986).
Notable early medical pioneers of high-dose vitamin C (ascorbate) therapy
are Claus Washington Jungeblut, M.D. (1898-1976); William J. McCormick, M.D.
(1880-1968); and Frederick R. Klenner, M.D. (1907-1984). More recently,
important work has been published by Hugh D. Riordan, M.D. (1932-2005) and
Robert F. Cathcart III, M.D. (1932-2007).

It Was 75 Years Ago Today

Dr. Jungeblut, Professor of Bacteriology at Columbia University, first
published on vitamin C as prevention and treatment for polio, in 1935. (1)
Also in 1935, Jungeblut showed that vitamin C inactivated diphtheria toxin.
(2) By 1937, Jungeblut demonstrated that ascorbate inactivated tetanus
toxin. (3) Between 1943 and 1947, Dr. Klenner, a specialist in diseases of
the chest, cured 41 cases of viral pneumonia with vitamin C. By 1946, Dr.
McCormick showed how vitamin C prevents and also cures kidney stones; by
1957, how it fights cardiovascular disease. Beginning in the 1960s, Dr.
Cathcart used large doses of vitamin C to treat pneumonia, hepatitis, and
eventually AIDS. For more than three decades, beginning in 1975, Dr. Riordan
and his team have successfully used large doses of intravenous vitamin C
against cancer. The use of doses of tens of thousands of milligrams of
vitamin C per day may be the most unacknowledged successful research in
medicine.

Heard this one before? "If vitamin C was that good, doctors would tell their
patients to take a lot of it." It is surprising how many physicians have
done precisely that.

What's that? Your doctor still doesn't?

Why? Decades of physicians' reports and controlled studies support the use
of very large doses of vitamin C.
