Buffered Vitamin C
Easy on the GI Tract, and Helpful for Many Medical Problems
by Ron Schmid, N.D.
Vitamin C is crucial for immune function, collagen formation, and antioxidant protection. Infection, physical or emotional stress, and chronic disease all deplete the vitamin C concentration in white blood cells. Vitamin C enhances immune system response similarly to interferon, the body's natural antiviral and anticancer compound; it functions structurally in the formation of collagen, the key protein in cartilage, tendons, and connective tissue; and it provides our first line of antioxidant protection, working together with vitamin E and carotenes).
Most medical problems benefit from vitamin C supplementation. Hundreds of major studies have shown marked benefits in treating the following problems, among others:
- Cardiovascular disorders: atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, mitral valve prolapse, peripheral vascular disease, and elevated cholesterol levels. Higher intake of vitamin C significantly reduces the risk of death from heart attack and stroke (and other causes, including cancer).
- Eye disorders: cataract, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Vitamin C supplementation can halt cataract progression, significantly improve vision, and dramatically reduce the need for surgery.
- Asthma and other allergies: Low vitamin C in the diet and in the blood is a risk factor for asthma. Respiratory measurements and asthma symptoms improve with supplements of 1,000 to 2,000 mg of vitamin C daily.
- Diabetes: Diabetics suffer from deficient intracellular vitamin C, and high dosage vitamin C is essential in the treatment of diabetes. Vitamin C improves blood sugar control and helps prevent many of the complications of diabetes, especially eye and nerve diseases. At least 3,000 mg per day is thought to be optimal.
- Low sperm counts and infertility: Vitamin C plays a critical role in protecting the sperm's genetic material (DNA) from damage, and low vitamin C levels can lead to infertility. Vitamin C supplementation is very effective in treating male infertility.
- Cancer prevention and treatment: Many studies show that supplemental vitamin C protects against most types of cancer, and that cancer patients taking high doses of vitamin C have significantly increased survival times.
- Other conditions vitamin C benefits include colds and flus, skin ulcers and wound healing, Parkinson's disease, hepatitis, preeclampsia of pregnancy, and prevention of premature rupture of fetal membranes.
