After all, if vitamin C cures a laundry list of diseases (viruses and polio among them) why would neither the medical profession nor pharmaceutical industry proclaim it?
Answering that last one is easy. Pharmaceutical industry success requires a hefty investment of intellectual pursuit, time and financial resources. The reality is that pharmaceutical giants never invest in what they cannot patent or stratospherically-price based upon research and development costs. The industry neither exists nor is motivated to advocate inexpensive alternatives to profitable prescription medication.
But the corporate medical profession, purportedly existing for the benefit of our health, has not earned such deference. 70+ years of medical school and occupational health care programs have given short shrift to high-dosing vitamin C medical documentation. The academic “black hole of curricula” has produced generations of medical practitioners as uninformed (or misinformed) as their educators. This has produced alleged “experts” unfamiliar with the body of medical literature testifying to the successes of high-dosing Vitamin C treatments.
God bless physicians and medical health care practitioners who, when learning of high dosage vitamin C clinical documentation, actually look into it. They should be equally praised for avoiding the misdirection of clinical studies utilizing minimal under-dosing protocols that yield substandard results. These inadequate clinical studies is the hill upon which many physicians will usually fight to the death in their dismissal of what they haven’t honestly reviewed or studied. (For a better understanding of this see below at item 1 of Works Cited, which details an impetus for the medical profession’s ostracization of high dosage Vitamin C clinical results.1
My intent is not a dissertation on the failings of the medical establishment in regard to high dosing of vitamin C. Instead, my goal is to make more readily available—to professional and layman alike—evidence and clinical results demonstrating successful high dosing of Vitamin C.
To that end, this web page is an Index of electronic publications referencing the scientific/medical basis for the application and effectiveness of vitamin C at high doses. My starting point was the work of Thomas Levy, MD., since one of his books documents over 1,200 scientific references and another of his titles addresses securing treatment in the face of reluctant medical practitioners.2
This Index primarily sources clinical studies and vitamin C advocacy relying on verified cases, treatments, tests, trials, research and records by credentialed medical practitioners and scholars. Title inclusion requires sources to have been authored by one of the aforementioned health care practitioners or academic scholars. On a case-by-case basis titles authored by non-credentialed individuals are included in this index when the subject matter focuses on Vitamin C high-dosage content at the direction of, or involving credentialed medical practitioners, health care professionals or academic scholars.
Video titles in this Index are exempt of the above-referenced “authorship” requirements. However, such titles are content/coverage about the high dosage Vitamin C work product of said individuals or documented medical cases/instances of application beyond the scope of written material.
This is a periodically expanding collection.
