Vitamin C saves swine flu A(H1N1) patient
An article posted last September in Mercola.com gave details on how Vitamin C therapy had helped a swine flu patient from New Zealand to recover from the virus. The patient had contracted flu following his visit to Fiji for a holiday. It was also not known to the patient that at the time, he was also suffering from leukemia. Swine flu vaccines and medicines were used to treat the patient. However, his health continued to worsen. Their doctor referred the family to Dr. Appleton who then informed them about the effectiveness of Vitamin C. The hospital where the patient was admitted refused to give him Vitamin C as major treatment for his illness.
However, the family and the doctors from Center for Advanced Medicine (CAM) insisted that the patient be given Vitamin C. As the patient’s health weakened even more, the hospital agreed to give the patient Vitamin C. After a few days of taking Vitamin C, the patient’s health got better. Despite the concern of the hospital that the vitamin intake might be causing kidney and liver failures, Dr. Appleton was able to provide information that the antibiotics could be the cause of the patient’s health deterioration. As the patient continued to take Vitamin C, his health improved and had been responding well to the treatment.
This particular case confirmed the effectiveness of Vitamin C. Daily dose of Vitamin C might provide us with greater health benefits than other more advanced medicines. In the case of swine flu virus, taking Vitamin C is an effective way of preventing us from contracting the disease.
What Vitamin C to take?
With the many Vitamin C’s offered in the market, making the right choice which to take can be difficult. Are we taking the right Vitamin C?
Vitamin C is ascorbic acid. Common vitamin C that is available to us comes in the form of pure ascorbic acid which may cause hyperacidity to those who have sensitive stomachs. However, there are other forms of Vitamin C that have been recently developed which may have better beneficial effects than pure ascorbic acid. This effective form of Vitamin C is Sodium Ascorbate.
Biogenic C, the newest addition to Greencow’s line of healthful products, is vitamin C in the form of non-acidic Sodium Ascorbate. Biogenic C is chewable tablet with combined health benefits from goji extracts, calamansi and stevia. It entails maximum absorption of up to 90% because it dissolves in the lining of the mouth and under the tongue. Biogenic C protects against various illnesses that are usually associated with aging such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and weakened bones and muscles. This vitamin C promotes proper absorption of other micronutrients and vitamins, like iron and calcium, needed for healthy cells, bone development and tissue repair.
Protect yourself and your family from the threats of swine flu virus, seasonal flu and many other diseases. Boost your immune system. Take Biogenic C now.
