You could work this out as one liter bag with 75 grams of sodium ascorbate every twelve hours. Doing a single bag in a doctor's office doesn't give best results, because after the drip is finished, the blood levels fall back down to normal levels. Dr. Klenner said that to get the " antibiotic " effect, you have to dose it like an antibiotic, i.e., every 2-4 hours around the clock. You have to give enough quantity and often enough and for long enough to get the job done. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 now we're really off the topic (sorry peter walker)...however, jason...of course everyone is different, but vitamin C isn't that irritating to the vein. not as irritating as the chelation (EDTA detoxifier), and certainly way less irritating than the common post chelation drip called the Meyer's cocktails...which includes ur complex B vit's, some electrolytes etc... at any rate, it depends on the drip speed and which vein is accessed, but usually u can get thru a bag of about 60g's in less than 2 hours. sometimes it is wise however, to start the patient on 40g's with a slow drip. at worst, it can cause a bit of nausea in a small amount of people. one needs to monitor this... but most people can take it with no problem. the usual symptoms during the therapy is u find urself getting very thirsty. (i wont get into the science of that). but u are correct with ur theory about spreading out the infusion, ingestion of vitamin C over the course of the day...however, most of us work and have lives, so unless ur at a clinic that offers this, and about 4 weeks to spare, then thats not happenin. i do feel obligated, however, to share with anybody interested the side effects associated with vitamin c infusions. all i can say is heavy detox. but its a good one. some people are unaffected. others, like me, can develop a fever. lasts for a few days, then ur in the clear. if u do develop a fever, it usually means that either 1) u had a lot of crap in ur body and ur organs are fighting hard to deal with the junk that has been exposed...and 2) there's a bacteria, parasite, or virus that has been hiding out. i wouldn't discourage anyone from getting the C infusion. i witnessed it do wonders for so many people, including myself.

Dr. Cathcart has a recipe fo IV vitamin C posted on his website. http://www.orthomed.com Doing it right is practically risk-free. Note he mentions monitoring for hypocalcemia; of course that would be bad.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 My wife received Meyer's cocktails before having chemo for lung cancer, we had more results in 2 weeks 5 infusions than the whole chemo treatment, after the chemo, I believe the Meyer's cocktails were too busy trying to clean up the chemo damage to do significant help on the cancer, the thirst was a big issue and later in the treatments she got a little nausea, which responded well to Coca-Cola. Another good plus for people who must have chemo is that my wife had no vomiting from the chemo, the cocktails kept her going thru the treatments.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 My wife had her Meyer's cocktails mixed with I believe 100 ml of sterile water and 75 to 100 grams of the Vitamin C, we would run the IV full open most of the time and received the IVs in a little over and hour to 1.5 hours with no problems and she was having 2 infusions a week, these were thru the veins in the wrist and hand. Terry Re: Vitamin C I would think that doing 50 grams in two hours would be stressful to the body, even if it was done through a PortaCath. 50 grams mixed in a 500 ml bag is already hypertonic, even if they mixed it in plain sterile water. Dripping it in at a rate of 250 ml per hour would be hard on the vein if it was done in the arm. If it was mixed in 250 ml of water, it would be that much more hypertonic and therefore irritating to the vein.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I have had the Meyer's and C separately but his sounds like what my doc (actually his amazing nurse) does. She can put he needle in the hand or wherever you are most comfortable with it... I am definitely interested in doing more of this. I'm in the SF East Bay, Terry, where are you-all? .... > > My wife had her Meyer's cocktails mixed with I believe 100 ml of sterile > water and 75 to 100 grams of the Vitamin C, we would run the IV full open > most of the time and received the IVs in a little over and hour to 1.5hours > with no problems and she was having 2 infusions a week, these were thru > the > veins in the wrist and hand. > Terry > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
