Vitamin C
Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid among many others, is very useful in fighting not only the common cold but many other ailments. “Essential for healthy teeth, gums, and bones; helps heal wounds, scar tissue, and fractures; prevents scurvy; builds resistance to infection; aids in the prevention and treatment of the common cold; gives strength to blood vessels; aids in the absorption of iron. It is required for the synthesis of collagen, the intercellular “cement” which holds tissues together. It is also one of the major antioxidant nutrients. It prevents the conversion of nitrates (from tobacco smoke, smog, bacon, lunch meats, & some vegetables) into cancer-causing substances. According to Dr. Linus Pauling, the foremost authority on Vitamin C, Vitamin C will decrease the risk of getting certain cancers by 75%.”1

Liposomal is a liquid form of ascorbic acid that is taken alone or in a shot of water or juice. It is one of the best ways to get the ascorbic acid into the bloodstream when an IV infusion is not available. Some feel it doesn’t cause the same bowel intolerance as the powder or capsules. I wouldn’t recommend taking this form on a regular basis as it contains sodium.

Early in his practice, he became interested in and pioneered the use of massive doses of Vitamin C in the treatment of various diseases. He inspired the work of Linus Pauling and Irwin Stone, who expanded his research into the benefits and use of Vitamin C therapy after Dr. Klenner’s death in 1984. This article, which covers the clinical experiences of Dr. Klenner, was abbreviated, summarized and annotated by Lendon H. Smith, M.D.
