We are currently using MegaFood vitamins. I'm looking for a chewable daily

vitamin for though. The kids version of MegaFood daily is only 72%

whole food, and isn't chewable. So I have to pound that up each day too.

Never thought about it that way until you said that. I am a HUGE proponent of

whole food supps to get vitamins the way nature intended; not fragmented and

foreign to the body. When I take vitamins, my urine is bright colored. When I

take whilefoods supps, my urine is unchanged proving how bioavailable it is. My

whole family consumes them daily. I believe it is one of the reasons I am ph

balanced; just checked it the other day. What brand of whole food vitamin C do

you use, Holly? Sorry if you mentioned it already........Anita

consume vitamin C is in whole food form, not taking one part of the vitamin and

consuming that. That was my understanding w/all vitamins, they are better

in whole food form.

Over Thanksgiving I got a sinus infection. I hadn't been sick in a few

years, not even w/a cold. I took 6 or so tablets of vitamin C in whole food form

thru out the day for a few days. The infection was gone after a few days w/o

antibiotics (that everyone said I would need!).

thanks

Moving this over to OTVAX, so please respond there, but Olga who is on this

group posted this to another group we are on,,, (Olga I hope it is OK to

cross post)

Revisiting the topic from a while ago. I've recently purchased amla-C

natural vitamin C supplement which I'm happy with and wanted to share. We

are finally ready to abandon our sodium ascorbate supplement that we've been

using for a while during sickness. Amla-C has no synthetics in it:

http://www.luckyvit <http://www.luckyvitamin.com/091401884009.html>

amin.com/091401884009.html#

Ingredients: amla berry and spirulina.

There is also bigger size container:

http://www.luckyvit <http://www.luckyvitamin.com/091401864025.html>

amin.com/091401864025.html

And powder form (vs tablets)

http://www.luckyvit <http://www.luckyvitamin.com/091401864100.html>

amin.com/091401864100.html

It is WAPF-recommended.

There is also another product made of camu-camu fruit/berry which is also

very high in vit C. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks ok:

http://www.vitaglo. <http://www.vitaglo.com/atl0010.html> com/atl0010.html

(capsules)

http://www.vitaglo. <http://www.vitaglo.com/atl0011.html> com/atl0011.html

(powder)

Contains only freeze-dried camu-camu juice in tapioca base.

Any thoughts on this?

Plus there is acerola powder made by Now - probably the most well-known vit

C supplement among WAPF people:

http://www.vitaglo. <http://www.vitaglo.com/740.html> com/740.html

It is pretty affordable, but I personally never trusted this brand so I

haven't tried it.

Standard Process has Vit C supplement too.

Always this debate

But all the research done on Vitamin C and all that it can do healthwise -

preventative and treating illness - has been done on Sodium Ascorbate form.

And can take much higher doses which seem to be necessary

See the links I sent

There are no blanket, black and white answers.

thanks for the reply. I think for what we are using Vitamin C for,

preventive and treating minor immune illnesses, we'll stick w/the whole food

type. I

suspect as w/other things, we (man) really don't know as much as we think we

do.
