A Novel in vivo Study of Vitamin C and Heart Disease
Some rodents (those in one of the two hypoxia groups and in one of the two control groups) were given vitamin C water daily for its antioxidant effects. When the pups were born, the researchers noticed dramatic differences between the various groups. Rats born of hypoxic pregnancy with no vitamin C treatment showed increased thickening of the walls of the aorta.up to 170% above normal. and molecular markers of disease, such as an increase in the heart's heat shock proteins, a signal of cardiac oxidative stress. When the pups grew to adulthood, at about 4 months, their hearts pumped consistently harder and faster than normal, which, over the long term is a known predictor of eventual heart failure. The pups also showed obstructions in their large arteries, just as people developing cardiovascular disease do. These changes were not seen in newborn and adult offspring of hypoxic pregnancies treated with vitamin C, the team reports online today in PLoS ONE.

Anti-cancer effect of pharmacologic ascorbate (AA) and its interaction with supplementary parenteral glutathione (GSH) in preclinical cancer models
Findings:
  1. The results showed that pharmacologic AA (vitamin C) induced cytotoxicity in all tested cancer cells,
  2. Although all treatments (AA (vitamin C), GSH, and AA (vitamin C) + GSH) improved survival rate, AA + GSH inhibited the cytotoxic effect of AA alone and failed to provide further survival benefit.
  3. There is an antagonism between ascorbate (vitamin c) and glutathione (GSH) in treating cancer, and therefore iv AA and iv GSH should not be coadministered to cancer patients on the same day.

More Absurd FDA Action Against Vitamin C

In a time of budget cutting and deficits, the FDA somehow has the capacity to go after one of the safest substances known!
FDA also noted packaging materials place product names in close proximity to the words .Cold Remedy." Further, website claims at issue include .Extra boost of Vitamin C in every RapidMelt,".Extra boost of Vitamin C and Echinacea in every RapidMelt," .Reduces the duration of cold symptoms when taken at the first sign of a cold." FDA said these statements about the RapidMelts Vitamin C products are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease in violation of section 201(g)(1)(B) of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 321(g)(1)(B)). Also, the statements say the products are intended to affect the structure or function of the body of man in violation of section 201(g)(1)(C) of the Act (21 U.S.C. § 321(g)(1)(C))

No Deaths From Vitamins or Minerals
(OMNS, October 14, 2009) There was not even one death caused by a vitamin or dietary mineral in 2007, according to the most recent statistics available from the U.S. National Poison Data System. The 132-page annual report of the American Association of Poison Control Centers published in the journal Clinical Toxicology shows zero deaths from multiple vitamins; zero deaths from any of the B vitamins; zero deaths from vitamins A, C, D, or E; and zero deaths from any other vitamin. (1)

Furthermore, there were zero deaths in 2007 from any dietary mineral supplement. This means there were no fatalities from calcium, chromium, zinc, colloidal silver, selenium, iron, or multimineral supplements. There was one death from chronic overdose of magnesium hydroxide, commonly known as the laxative/antacid milk of magnesia, and it was inappropriately listed in the "dietary supplement" reporting category. Nutritional supplements do not contain magnesium hydroxide.

Over half of the U.S. population takes daily nutritional supplements. Even if each of those people took only one single tablet daily, that makes 154,000,000 individual doses per day, for a total of over 56 billion doses annually. Since many persons take more than just one vitamin or mineral tablet, the numbers are considerably higher, and the safety of nutritional supplements is all the more remarkable

The Vitamin A and Vitamin D Controversy



The Cod Liver Oil Debate (from Weston-Price) Vitamin A is not a Vitamin D Antagonist.
Contrary to information from the Vitamin D Council, and most recently, from the Life Extension Foundation," Vitamins A and D cooperate with one another. They are not antagonists, but large doses of one may cause harm when not accompanied by the other."

Since vitamin A is required as a signaling partner with vitamin D, vitamin D will increase the turnover of vitamin A. If vitamin A is provided in excess, the results are generally beneficial. Excess vitamin A is stored in the liver. However, when the liver's storage capacity is exceeded, the overload of vitamin A causes the cells to burst, damaging the liver and releasing storage forms of vitamin A into the systemic circulation that do not belong there. By increasing the utilization of vitamin A, vitamin D can help prevent vitamin A toxicity.

If vitamin A is in short supply, on the other hand, the results can be detrimental. By .stealing. all of the vitamin A needed to use for vitamin Dspecific functions, the body will not have enough vitamin A left to support the many other functions for which it is needed.this may partially explain the toxic effects of excess vitamin D.
