Re: anyone know a source of ready made IV C?

[Guest guest]

If money's not an issue, I would use Ascor L NC (vit. C from cassava) from

http://mcguffmedical.com/images/pdf_Files/2006Catalog.pdf; 800-854-7220)

I believe that BioImmune.com (They've had amazing success w/their IV vit.

C-based protocol), if one uses such non-corn-derived vit. C, the cancer

doesn't develop a resistance to the vit. C.

The following are notes I've compiled/things I've heard. I have NO medical

knowledge and am giving NO advice.

Don't put vit. B-12 in the IV drip if patient has mercury in body. Vit. C

drips indirectly help remove mercury (Huggins, DDS, 2002)

I PERSONALLY would request very-high-dose IV vit. C given over a period of

many hours (but I'd start out w/a lower dose and work my way up; see email

posted below).

very large doses should also be built up to gradually over some days to

establish good tolerance, starting at 15 grams for 1 or 2 sessions, then to

50 grams and, if necessary, to 100 grams..To avoid the well-documented

Rebound Effect.this treatment should not be stopped abruptly. Patients

should be gradually weaned off it over a period of weeks...and oral vitamin

C therapy should continue indefinitely and on the days in between the IVC

infusions "

[ ] anyone know a source of ready made IV C?

> My friend's oncologist, a conventional doctor who only does chemotherapy

and has never done IV vitamin C before, has agreed to treat my friend with

IV Vitamin C, because he's too exhausted from chemo to do any more for a

while. This is awesome good news, because he would've had a hard time

paying for Vitamin C therapy without insurance, but this is covered if his

doctor does it. The doctor has asked us to find a source of the IV C. Dr.

Cathcart's website lists a vendor, but the vendor informs me they only sell

the materials and the doctor must mix the liquid himself. Well, this is not

going to happen, he's a conventional, busy oncologist seeing patients at

three big hospitals, and doesn't have the time to play in the kitchen. So,

does anyone know a vendor who sells ready made IV C bags? The doctor has a

license and can order it himself, we just don't know where to get it. I

plan to make this inquiry of other local IV C practitioners (SF Bay Area),

but maybe someone on this list knows something. Thanks,
