Re: Vitamin C allergy is there a replacement

[Guest guest]

Most vitamin C is made from corn -- probably GMO corn.

Some people are allergic to corn.

Unlike " ascorbic acid " , the " mineral ascorbate " vitamin C is pH neutral.

Sodium ascorbate is the least expensive type of ascorbate:

see -

http://www.iherb.com/NutriBiotic-Sodium-Ascorbate-Crystalline-Powder-16-oz-454-g\

/10178

But " Liposomal vitamin C " is better, and it's actually less expensive

considering that it's absorbed far better:

see - http://www.letstalkhealth.com/Liposomal-Vitamin-C-16oz-p/624.htm

.... compare:

. 1,000 mg vitamin C tablet or capsule - Absorption 19% = 190 mg into blood

stream

. 1,000 mg liposomal vitamin C (1 tsp) - Absorption 93% = 930 mg into blood

stream

Someone would need to try each one, to uncover an " allergy " . But you

could ask, to learn if it's also made from corn ...or GMO corn, etc.

Does anyone know if this comes from corn? All it says on the website is that it is Gluten free.

I would like to take this as my companion nutrient if it isn't made from corn and isn't GMO. I never even thought about what it was made from.

Regarding Vit C from corn:

Dr. R. Jaffe MD has a brand of vitamins called Perque. The Vitamin C in this brand is derived from potatoes. I believe that the Nutricology brand also has a non-corn derived Vit C too.. There may be other products out there as well. The GMO issue is an important one and so is the fact that allergies to corn are very common.

Twinlab Quercetin + C (made with Sago Palm) Quercetin is for skin problems, since I have that as well, this suited me though thinking next time to order the slow release type.Caps 100 Caps Item # TL158 from Swanson vitamins NUTRILITE® Vitamin C Plus Extended Release $59180 tabletsItem #: 109747View all products by NUTRILITE®All-day vitamin C support in just 500 mg. Your body uses vitamin C’s immune-boosting benefits more effectively with this time-release formula. Get all-day defense and eliminate the waste associated with instant-release vitamin C doses. NUTRILITE Vitamin C Plus Extended Release uses one of nature’s most concentrated sources of vitamin C – acerola cherries – grown on our own certified organic farms. Halal/KosherHow much do I need?Usage Rate: 180 Use(s) per BottleRecommended use: 1 Use(s) per dayRetail Cost per use: $0.33 As for the alkaline vit C it is really ascorbic acid with calcium base but it is not the full vit C though. Kind of like using the shell of an egg when one needs the whole egg shell and all for proper healing. I found that using the Australian Bush Flower Essences Dagger Hakea, Dog Rose and bottlebrush helps the elimination system to be healthier as the iodine/potassium iodide will dump toxins from the cells into the blood stream so putting strain on the elimination system (often healing reactions because of it) there is a combination called Purifying (also an ABFE) but contains Bush Iris that also dumps the lymph system toxins into the body so this should only be used after a couple of month on the above and then started slowly and not the full dose at the beginning as it may cause a healing reaction (though pulling back or off it till the body catches up would be good) Also diet can be helpful (wild filtered fish oil can help prevent the formation of free radicals (toxins) ) often from grains eaten, though smoking will also have contributed to high toxin levels. Since her body needs all the help she can get she might consider improving both slowly. IF my daughter for instance had to quit smoking I would also encourage her to take some vit B complex (but not brewer’s yeast as it is too acidic) Some people to help their liver, drink fresh lemon juice in the morning so she might look into that as well as it is a non acid forming type of vit C.
