AMLA supplement Real Vitamin C

May 14, 2007

Hi Corny,

I've been taking Amla for a few months now and I really like it. Once

thing I have noticed is it doesn't rush through the system like ascorbic

acid does. If I take high dose ascorbic acid late in the day, I will

have bleeding gums the next morning. My speculation on that is that as

the high Vit C is used up and there is not to replace it the body goes

rapidly into scurvy. Advocates of high Vit C warn about this. . .that

you should taper down very gradually when you do high doses, so as to

avoid scury.

I notice with Amla, that I can take it late in the day and the next

morning, no bleeding gums. I seem to be able to take less of it than

the fake stuff and it works better than taking more of the fake stuff.

More bang for the buck. I'm really enjoying it. I didn't enjoy it at

first, because it is blackish and doesn't taste that great, but I'm

really enjoying the benefits.

Warmly

Donna

Hi Corny,

I need to clarify what I said. Synthetic Vit C doesn't cause scury. .

..well it can. But it is the lack of it that causes it. This is what I

mean. " Experts " , :-) say that you should take Vit C every hour or two

throughout the day when taking synthetic, so as to avoid the sudden drop

of C when the synthetic disappears from the system. In other words, C

doesn't stay in the system long. It gets used up quick, and so if you

dump three grams in, in the afternoon, by the next morning you are in a

scurvy situation. So, if you are going to do the synthetic stuff you

need to space it out through the day, so that the body has an even

amount in the system through the day.

But when I do the Amla powder, I notice it doesn't have this affect. It

seems to stay in the system longer. I have absolute NO idea why. And

it may just be my experience. This may not be the case with others.

Blessings

Donna,

Do you have any proof that Synthetic Vit C can cause scurvy ?

Is your quote 'if you dump three grams in, in the afternoon, by the next

morning you are in a

scurvy situation', based on any research or is this just your idea ?

Do you have any proof that natural vit C stays longer in the system ?

If not, shouldn't you be more careful in your statements ?

You are very negative about synthetic Vit C, calling it 'fake vitamine

C' several times, is this because you yourself are selling AMLA ?

I don't have the feeling that you are still objective .......

I am not selling anything and don't see any problem in taking Ascorbic

Acid in the synthetic form, the form Linus ing studied for 40 years

and about which he has written many books and articles. And of course

the form he - a brilliant biochemist - has been advising people to take

in major quantities, for many years.
