  • Three Intravenous Vitamin C Research Studies Approved for Treating COVID-19

    Corona Virus news. Initially, Physician-directed, hospital-based administration of Intravenous Vitamin C had been marginalized or discredited. Anyone saying that vitamin therapy can stop coronavirus is already being labeled as “promoting false information” and promulgating “fake news.” Even the sharing of verifiable news, and direct quotes from credentialed medical professionals, is being restricted or blocked on social media. The good news – FINALLY – research studies are being approved for high doses of intravenous vitamin C. We all look forward to hearing more as trials progress and very much hope to be hearing of great success with the high dose IVC and liposomal oral treatments!

    (OMNS February 21, 2020) Intravenous vitamin C is already being employed in China against COVID-19 coronavirus. I am receiving regular updates because I am part of the Medical and Scientific Advisory Board to the International Intravenous Vitamin C China Epidemic Medical Support Team. Its director is Richard Z. Cheng, MD, PhD; associate director is Hong Zhang, PhD. Among other team members are Qi Chen, PhD (Associate Professor, Kansas University Medical School); Jeanne Drisko, MD (Professor, University of Kansas Medical School); Thomas E. Levy, MD, JD; and Atsuo Yanagisawa, MD, PhD. (Professor, Kyorin University, Tokyo).

    Direct report from China

    by Andrew W. Saul, Editor

    OMNS Chinese edition editor Dr. Richard Cheng is reporting from China about the first approved study of 12,000 to 24,000 mg/day of vitamin C by IV. The doctor also specifically calls for immediate use of vitamin C for prevention of coronavirus (COVID-19). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TC0SO9KDG7U

    A second clinical trial of intravenous vitamin C was announced in China on Feb. 13th. In this second study, says Dr. Cheng, “They plan to give 6,000 mg/day and 12,000 mg/day per day for moderate and severe cases. We are also communicating with other hospitals about starting more intravenous vitamin C clinical studies. We would like to see oral vitamin C included in these studies, as the oral forms can be applied to more patients and at home.” Additional information at http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n11.shtml

    And on Feb 21, 2020, announcement has been made of a third research trial now approved for intravenous vitamin C for COVID-19. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMDX0RSDp1k&feature=youtu.be

    Dr. Cheng, who is a US board-certified specialist in anti-aging medicine, adds: “Vitamin C is very promising for prevention, and especially important to treat dying patients when there is no better treatment. Over 2,000 people have died of the COIV-19 outbreak and yet I have not seen or heard large dose intravenous vitamin C being used in any of the cases. The current sole focus on vaccine and specific antiviral drugs for epidemics is misplaced.”

    He adds that: “Early and sufficiently large doses of intravenous vitamin C are critical. Vitamin C is not only a prototypical antioxidant, but also involved in virus killing and prevention of viral replication. The significance of large dose intravenous vitamin C is not just at antiviral level. It is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that kills most people from coronaviral pandemics (SARS, MERS and now NCP). ARDS is a common final pathway leading to death.

    “We therefore call for a worldwide discussion and debate on this topic.”

    News of vitamin C research for COVID-19 is being actively suppressed

    Anyone saying that vitamin therapy can stop coronavirus is already being labeled as “promoting false information” and promulgating “fake news.” Even the sharing of verifiable news, and direct quotes from credentialed medical professionals, is being restricted or blocked on social media. You can see sequential examples of this phenomenon at my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/themegavitaminman .

    Indeed, the World Health Organization (WHO) has, literally, met with Google and Facebook and other media giants to stop the spread of what they declare to be wrong information. 

    https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/02/14/facebook-google-amazon-met-with-who-to-talk-coronavirus-misinformation.html?__twitter_impression=true

    Physician-directed, hospital-based administration of intravenous vitamin C has been marginalized or discredited. Scientific debate over COVID-19 appears to not be allowed.

    Ironically, Facebook, blocking any significant users’ sharing of the news of approved vitamin therapy research, is itself blocked in China by the Chinese government. As for the internet, yes, China has it. And yes, it is censored. But, significantly, the Chinese government has not blocked this real news on how intravenous vitamin C will save lives in the COVID-19 epidemic.
    Here is the protocol as published in Chinese: http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n11-chi.shtml

    Medical orthodoxy obsessively focuses on searching for a vaccine and/or drug for coronavirus COVID-19). While they are looking for what would be fabulously profitable approaches, we have with vitamin C an existing, plausible, clinically demonstrated method to treat what coronavirus patients die from: severe acute respiratory syndrome, or pneumonia.

    And it is available right now.

  • Vaccination Detox

    Vaccination Detox

    Vaccines are NOT a dead virus in sterile water. Depending on the type of vaccine, and the pharmaceutical brand, vaccines also contain mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, antibiotics, MSG, residual DNA from aborted human fetuses, monkey kidney cells, cow (bovine) serum, and yeast. 

    So, why are some vaccines made with toxins like metals and MSG?

    Vaccines made to induce a low level immune response supposedly work better if they are revved up with an “adjuvant” – an agent to increase an immune response. When more than one vaccine is administered together it is called a conjugated vaccine.
    *printable CDC list of adjuvants by vaccine

    Many parents have requested information on how to ‘protect’ their child from vaccination toxins. The ONLY sure way to protect your child, would be to avoid all vaccine injections. Those children/adults who are vacinated could benefit from these gentle detox methods.

    Cold Pack -First of all, if you are choosing to vaccinate – take an ice pack with you and ice the vaccine site immediately after injection to reduce inflammation at the site. Continue using the cold pack for two days.

    Detoxification bath – Add 5 drops of Lavender essential oil to your child’s bath with a 2 cups of epsom salt. You can also do this as a foot bath.

    Probiotics – A probiotic is essential to restore gut flora and balance the immune system. Check with your health care practitioner for a good brand and dosage for your child.

    Omega 3 Oil – This is especially important to take if your child suffered an adverse reaction. Cod liver oil is thought to be the most superior of all fish oils. You can also use Udo’s Oil.

    Cilantro – Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered cilantro can accelerate the excretion of mercury and aluminum from the body. The theory is that cilantro has a molecular bond that binds to heavy metals and pulls them from the body. Cilantro therapy is certainly gentle and inexpensive.

    Vitamin C – Linus Pauling’s Nobel Prize winning work showed that Vitamin C helps counteract the damage of heavy metals, chemicals, and toxins contained in vaccines and strengthens the immune system. Vitamin C comes in easy to consume chewables for kids, but you can also use the powdered form and even liposomal vitamin C as an option.

    Silica – is an effective non-invasive therapy for reducing the burden of aluminum in the body, it has been show to help the body slow down the accumulation of aluminum.

    Water – When toxins are pulled from the body, they need to be flushed out. Full kidney function is dependent upon there being enough water in the body. Avoid soda, dairy, and junk juices and encourage your child to drink plenty of water.

    Raw Food, Juices, & Smoothies – Shoot for at least 2-3 raw juices or smoothies per day during a detox, in addition to their normal meals. Try to include foods like broccoli, collards and kale, daikon radish, garlic, onions, spices, and sunny-side up eggs from free-range chickens in their diet during this time.

    Make sure to check in with your healthcare advisor or practitioner during this time – and certainly before purchasing and dosing any supplements. 

    Your child should be monitored closely after vaccination. Reactions can occur at anytime and even to those children who have been vaccinated previously.

    If you suspect that you or your child has experienced a vaccine reaction,report that reaction to the government.

  • FDA quietly bans powerful life-saving intravenous Vitamin C

    FDA quietly bans powerful life-saving intravenous Vitamin C

    It would be naive to think that the FDA endeavors to protect the public’s health as its primary focus. Indeed, that would be a conflict of interest, as it serves its master, the pharmaceutical industry. Has the Food and Drug Administration engineered a shortage of intravenous vitamin C as part of an overall attack on natural and non-toxic approaches to healing that compete with prescription drugs? An analysis by Natural Blaze would suggest that the answer is yes.

    Natural Blaze claims that a critical shortage of IV bags in general followed an FDA ban on the mass production of intravenous vitamin C. The FDA limited the availability of IV-C and the pharmaceutical industry halted production of injectable vitamins and minerals, after a 60 minute story about the miraculous recovery of a swine flu patient on life support. Because of the shortage of IV-C, doctors called upon compounding pharmacies to produce it. But the FDA began to limit compounding pharmacies after injectable steroids produced by the New England Compounding Center were contaminated with a fungus that caused a deadly outbreak of meningitis. Here is an example of an entire industry being punished for the dubious practices of one compounding pharmacy.

    Try and follow this convoluted story: Doctors began to source NECC for its more expensive product because cheaper generic versions were in short supply. But it was the FDA’s increased inspection of drug factories that disrupted the supply chain in the first place. So the meningitis deaths were in part caused by the onerous actions of the FDA.

    Natural Blaze reports, “… without anyone noticing, and by many indirect means of banning production of the bags or shutting down those doing the production of the bags and the injectable vitamins and minerals, access to IV solutions for innumerable treatments for diseases, have gone into critical shortage.”

    Vitamin C and the Big C

    Could the shortage of IV-C be part of an effort to limit alternative cancer therapies?

    DrWhitaker.com states, “… vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that has the power to boost immune function, increase resistance to infection, and protect against a wide range of diseases. But there’s an entirely different and largely unknown role of vitamin C, and that is its ability—when administered in very high doses by intravenous (IV) infusions—to kill cancer cells. … Best of all—and unlike virtually all conventional chemotherapy drugs that destroy cancer cells—it is selectively toxic. No matter how high the concentration, vitamin C does not harm healthy cells.”

    Dr. Whitaker continues:

    “The only way to get blood levels of vitamin C to the concentrations required to kill cancer cells is to administer it intravenously. … For example, 10 g of IV vitamin C raises blood levels 25 times higher than the same dose taken orally, and this increases up to 70-fold as doses get larger.”

    Choose health, choose life

    When the human body is challenged by pathogens or needs to heal from injuries or surgery, its requirement for vitamin C increases considerably. If hospitals routinely administered intravenous ascorbic acid, a proven and inexpensive treatment, patient outcomes would improve. When one weighs the risk of infection from deadly superbugs in hospitals today, IV vitamin C as a preventative safeguard makes all the more sense.

    To learn how to secure IV-C in advance of a hospital stay for yourself or a family member, check out this very useful advice at DoctorYourself.com. You will learn how to deal with objections from physicians and hospital administrators regarding this “alt-health” remedy. It will require some moxie, but doing so may save a life.

    Supporters of Obamacare believe that access to affordable healthcare is the most  important consideration. But of even greater concern should be the ability to choose your own treatment modality, such as IV-C. In other words, medical freedom of choice trumps universal access. Many of us involved in the health freedom movement are outraged by the disregard for our natural rights by unelected federal bureaucracies such as the FDA. We hope for a day when a critical mass of aware citizens will hold their elected officials accountable to overturn toxic policies that favor Big Pharma’s obscene profits over our health and well-being. And that day is long overdue.

  • High-dose vitamin C reduces inflammation in cancer patients, study shows

    High-dose vitamin C reduces inflammation in cancer patients, study shows

    The value and impact of a daily vitamin C supplement as well as high, concentrated doses for acute illnesses is becoming increasingly clear. Studies have already shown the efficacy of liposomal vitamin C in treating infections and as an anti-cancer therapy.  Now, another study is confirming its effectiveness against inflammation in cancer patients, one of the primary markers.

    Over the past 35 years, the Riordan Clinic has had quite a bit of experience in administering extremely high doses of vitamin C to cancer patients. These tests for vitamin C have been conducted due to its proven value as a therapeutic and preventative measure.

    Markers of inflammation such as pro-inflammatory cytokines and C-reactive protein tumor markers showed a positive response to vitamin C treatments, with inflammation reduced significantly. This improvement correlated with reduced tumor size and the hindrance of the cancer’s ability to metastasize.

    This research was conducted by Riordan Clinic scientists and published in the Journal of Translational Medicine. When supplementing with liposomal vitamin C orally for major health issues, 10,000 to 12,000 mg per day should be taken. This dose can be taken in 2,000 to 4,000 mg doses gradually throughout the day to aid absorption.

    Editor’s note: Our advise remains the same.  Whenever dealing with a life-threatening condition, like cancer – always consult a trusted, medical professional to help guide you in the recovery process.
