Guest guest Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Sylvia, Basicly ,You can make your own liposomal vitamin C.It could save your life since it is the most bioavailable form of C ,even more so than intravenous c ,which has been used to treat cancer , heart dsease and uncurable diseases,prevention of the flu...So now you can treat these diseases and more! The directions to make it are simple. The benefits enormous.This is BIG .IT is worth reading through at least the first 2 of the emails to get the info. the rest is clarification of the process; Making the stuff couldnt be simpler. 1 T of vitamin C powder in 1/2 cup of water 3 T of granualated lecithin in 1 cup of water I use warm water and Daddybob suggests shaking it in a jar to speed the disolving process.. pour both into the ultrasonic cleaner and turn it on. It cuts off after 2 minutes .I push the on button after it stops 5 times for a total of 10 minutes. I keep it in the fridge in a jar and shake it before I add it to juice or a smoothy.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Thank you. Do you know how much the ultrasonic cleaners run? Can one be made by me? Some simple way?

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Unless you are a wiz at making electrronics, you probably do not want to try making an ultrasonic unit. I have not bought one yet, but I am probably going to get this one: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=95563 The same company also makes a smaller, less expensive unit. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=3305 Alobar On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 11:57 PM, SYLVIA PRICE<LadyofYorkies@...> wrote: > Thank you.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I made my first batch Saturday night and took my first 1/2-ounce dose yesterday morning. It tastes bad, as promised, and I don't do smoothies or drink fruit juice, so I can see that getting this down may be a problem. I disguised it with bottled lime juice yesterday, which wasn't very good, but it left me with a definite *bright* feeling. I just downed a full ounce straight, thinking that would be least disgusting that way. Now the taste lingers and my mouth feels coated. It's enough to make me consider the capsules. I'd be interested in any kind of creative way to get this down! nah > > " Bradley's Homemade Liposomal C Method " > Posted by: " ransley@...

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Thanks for the tip! I'll try that next time. My brother's going to try this brand: http://www.letstalkhealth.com/Liposomal-Vitamin-C-Soft-Gels-p/620.htm With tax and shipping, it'll cost about $.35/serving, as opposed to my $.15, but maybe worth it in terms of wide usability, time and mess saved. I had a hard time getting my grandson (9) to drink his orange juice with just 1/8 ounce of the LET C liquid stirred in. Maybe someone will manufacture an ultrasonic cleaner with a spout! I tried to gracefully pour into a funnel, but it ended up all over the floor. I can't imagine how one would pour the liquid out of a larger unit. One might have to use a ladle. nah > > Labs Lecithin tastes significantly better than any other > lecithin I have ever tried. Not yummy, but far better than other > brands.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Below it says to use the sonic cleaner but when I looked up the sonic cleaners they don't talk about using the sonic cleaners for anything to be taken internally. It only talks about cleaning metals. Is it actually safe to take the LET solution for an extended amount of time? I mean you hear so much about a thing being good for your body and 10, 20 or more years later find out it isn't so good for your body. Where can I read more about the sonic cleaners?

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I have read that you can put a pyrex lab beaker into an ultrasonic cleaner. That would make it much easier to pour out the liposomal C, much easier to clean the ultrasonic cleaner, and no danger of contamination from the metal of the ultrasonic cleaner.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 The bowl of the cleaner is stainless steel, so that seems safe enough for the brief time the ingredients are in it, sans heat or cold. You make a good point. These are not whole foods in their natural form, especially once they're altered by ultrasonic waves. However, neither is CO a whole food. It's refined from coconuts, true, with a process that's well-established and seems to get good results. From what I understand, ultrasonic waves are sound waves at a higher frequency than humans can hear. They jiggle the contents of the cleaner at a microscopic level, and that's why it works as a cleaner....the dirt is vibrated off of things. I do believe that one can get too much vitamin C, and I've had symptoms in the past, mainly sore joints, crystallized deposits from excess vitamins B and C, I think. (I read about this someplace reputable and will post if I can recall where.) The pain goes away when I stop the vitamins. So I might know if there's an overdose situation. Since I was offered up as a guinea pig for the original polio vaccinations, and others, a tonsillectomy, plenty of amalgam, and fluoride treatments, which were doled out in our schools in the 50's, I feel relatively safe with an homogenized ascorbic acid/lecithin mixture. Both of these ingredients are well-researched. Btw, I noticed something yesterday; not sure if it's related. I started taking the LET C on Sunday, had two unusually stressful days on Monday and Tuesday, but Tuesday afternoon (while at a police station, no less, and speaking with an officer) I held out my hand, and noticed something very unusual. It was rock, solid STEADY! So steady that today I still keep holding out my hands in awe. This seems almost too fast, and I was also doing a lot of EFT tapping to relieve stress, but my hands suddenly seem to have the steadiness of a teenager. I've been hyper-hypo thyroid and hyper adrenal for over 1 1/2 years, so even though I'm still a little trembly inside, this is BIG for me and promising, and something I in no way expected.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Your experience with high dose vitamin C contradicts what all the experts write. Too much C will give one loose stool, but no other problems. Animals which make their own C make vastly more C than the RDA. I normally take ~10 grams of C per day. Before I started drining whey, I needed ~30 grams a day to get softened stools.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Not everyone agrees. Anyone suffering from a copper deficiency should not be taking excessive vitamin C (although most folks have elevated copper levels). Check out: http://www.acu-cell.com/vitc.html Negative effects of Vitamin C: Diarrhea, abdominal cramps, high stomach acid, increased urination, insomnia, irritability, joint pains, osteoporosis, headaches, hypoglycemia, weakness, anemia, PMS, may increase infections by causing copper deficiency, reduced estrogen, reduced progesterone, reduced prolactin. Also look at: http://www.unveilingthem.com/CopperTheMalignedMineral.htm While the Linus ing Institute notes that vitamin C supplements produces a copper deficiency in guinea pigs, they have not recognized that the same deficiency occurs in humans. > > > > > I do believe that one can get too much vitamin C, and I've had symptoms in the past, mainly sore joints, crystallized deposits from excess vitamins B and C, I think.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Yes, I apologize for throwing that out there without a proper reference, but I thought the personal experience was worth mentioning. I'll try to recall the source. I didn't come up with it on my own, ran across it while studying for the master's degree. It had never occurred to me that my joint pain was caused by vitamin overdose. I tested it a few times, because I couldn't believe it, but sure enough, each time I took anything high in C, including garcinia, the pain came back. I also ran across a tidbit about alpha-lipoic acid. It can cause hair loss because it competes with biotin. Lester Packer, a huge promoter of alpha-lipoic, tucked this little known fact near the end of his book, The Antioxidant Miracle. Mentioned it just once. Mid-chapter, mid-paragraph, near end of book. Personally I thought it should be in bold type and italics. The more I studied, the more I believed that our scientific knowledge is like a snowflake atop an iceberg.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Not everyone agrees on anything. The docs and pharmaceutical industry don't want people taking high doses of C because it cuts into their profits. If some has a Copper deficiency, take more copper rather than cutting back on C. Loose stool comes when one takes too much. Loose stool is not the end of the world, and can be minimized by taking C in small doses every hour. I suppose if one took a massive dose of C all at once, one might get abdominal cramps, but taking it in small doses all day long would eliminate that problem. I have been reading about the benefits from taking C to bowel tolerance for over 30 years now. Most animals make their own C. They do so in very large quantity. If high C caused all the problems below, why aren't all the other animals sick, and have massive hormone imbalances? Excessive vitamin C is taking it at levels greater than bowel tolerance. Taking C to bowel tolerance is not excessive. One can overdo anything, even water, so, of course, one can always take too much C or anything else. The Linus ing Institute has drastically undermined the work of Linus ing. The Linus ing institute was probably bought out by the docs and drug companies who don't want people taking high doses of C daily.

Vitamin C-----in every form that is possible to obtain (except IV) does nothing at all for me, and in slightly high doses just causes diarrhea. I've even just finished up a box of the LivOn liposomal C and noticed absolutely nothing. In fact, I'm bruising more easily than usual. I DO take high quality bioflavenoids as well, before anybody jumps on that! We are all metabolically unique. How I wish I could get the great benefits that so many do from Vit C!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I've been taking one ounce of the homemade lipo C per day for a week now. The only thing I've noticed is very steady hands, and now I actually feel this steadiness in my arms, as if some huge calm is slowly creeping through my body. Very odd. When I hold my arm out, I'm steadier than my kids or grandson. It's a mystery. But it's most welcome. Alobar, although other animals manufacture vitamin C, and although humans are perhaps meant to, I think the point was made in some of the references on this thread that humans (nor any animal) didn't evolve to *digest* so much vitamin C. The side effects mentioned might be cause by the digestion of it, causing irritation to the bowels and overtaxing of the kidneys, which the lipo C is supposed to bypass. Just a guess. So far I've had no negative side effects. S > >> > >> Your experience with high dose vitamin C contradicts what all the > >> experts write.
