Vitamin C

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Do you mean you only take 500mg of Vit C a day? Or am I misunderstanding?

I know others take 10000 mg a day time released. I so want to try it, but don't

know how much and will it truely help me.Thanks..

Elaine, my 4 year daughter is taking 500mgs per day. 2, 250mg

doses. I have been taking 5000mg per day, I take 2 2500mgs doses.

I think the vitamin C only works on one type of CMT because it hasn't helped

my pain. But I haven'thad a cold this year. haha

Yes, for adults, though.

<I don't understand the question. Do you mean for kids or adults? Theraputic

dose>

[Guest guest]

, you got that right.

Quick update on the Vit C. I was researching a Christmas present tonight and

then found myself typing a few emails to family and friends. Then I noticed

that I using my pinky finger more tonight typing. First It was unbelievable

that I was doing this and then is was unbelievable that I noticed. Looks like I

am still headed in the right direction. So far my 4 year old (), I have

noticed that she is not tripping as much or even at all and she has only woke up

1 night in 2 1/2 weeks and has had only one other day with pain in her feet and

that was after a very busy day out and about. Seems like the 2 doses of 250mgs

is working. I will keep you posted on progress.

Hi Lori,

Yes, I'm the same as you, I have been taking 12,000mg of C for 2 months now. I

haven't noticed any improvement at all. I won't give up yet though. I sense alot

of CMT'ers have started taking C in the last few months based on what they have

read on this site. Hopefully it will help some.

I have worn AFOs for 9 years now and they really help.

My hands have become worse in the last 2 years and writing is becoming a

problem. I love typing though!

I wonder has the Vitamin C depend on the type of CMT. I have type 1A.

Don't worry, be happy.

I too started taking megadoses (4000 mg per day) of C a few months

ago and saw little if any reduction of my symtoms.

However, two weeks ago, I started to take a time release C capsule

which seems to be helping significantly at much smaller doses. 500

mg twice a day.

I think that there is a lot to be said for the time release capsules.

Reema,

This is great news! Thank you so much for the update. We need to hear these

things...

[Guest guest]

Reema,

What kind of dose are you taking and what kind of C (time release or not). I

have tried non time release in 2000mg doses twice a day with Vitamin E and I

have noticed improvements as well.

[Guest guest]

Reema,

How much Vitamin C do you take? Any particular brands that you can

endorse?

[Guest guest]

The stuff I have has bioflavonoids and rose hips. I have done my own research on

what is safe to take. I came to the conclusion that I needed to take as much as

I could tolerate. For me it's 7 - 8000 milligrams a day.

[Guest guest]

,

I checked drugsstore.com and the only time released 1000 pills have other

ingredients in them, which one do you take? I Have CMT type 2. I'm 40 years old

and didn't find out till '97 my sister has it and my dad had it. I would like to

try vitamin c but don't know which one to buy and how much is safe to take can

you let me know.

Thank you,

Tommy

I am not sure what type she has. They tryed to explain it to me at the

hospital, but I was so lost at that point.I am going to try the vitamin c and

see how she does with it.Thank you so much for your support.

That's the stuff I thought because the plain Vitamin C wasn't time released. I

just wanted to make sure I get the right one.

Now how do you take it? Do you take all 7 pills at once or every few hours? And

should I start taking less pills and keep uping the dose till I find out how

much I can tolerate. Thank you do much for your info and time.

Thanks,

Tommy

[Guest guest]

Hi Tommy,

I have taken them all at once and I have taken them a few at a time during the

day. Now I just take them during the day when I remember.

One thing I don't

understand: since lemon juice contains about the same amount of

Vitamin C as Orange juice, why doesn't the vitamin C in the lemon

juice neutralize the MMS as it is said to do when delivered by orange

juice?

You are only using a few drops of lemon juice to activate it. It is too little to affect the potency. You are not supposed to mix the AMMS with O.J. because you would be using much more of the juice.

Excuse me, but is this a guess or opinion?

[Guest guest]

I've used nothing but lemon juice, so I think she's right.

Then one can infer that it would be OK to activate it with orange

juice, if the acidity were as high (pH as low) as lemon/lime

juice....a fairly useless inference, I realise...

I'm getting into this conversation late but I thought I read that oj

is okay but not the fortified with vitamin C you buy at the store.

JH even mentioned that if you use oj to activate squeeze it from an

orange that way you won't get the excess vitamin C.

I would imagine lemon or lime juice do work better to activate but my

guess is that as long as the oj hasn't been fortified with vitamin C

it's probably okay to use.
