Isn’t that something? A deadly disease/condition that doctors might be able to stop with something as cheap and readily available as Vitamin C.

Pretty awesome!

Also...

add 2000-3000mg C to your cold or allergy meds.

Vitamin C reduces mucus.

This could be very big. Sepsis has probably killed more soldiers than bullets.

Right now in Afghanistan, any Taliban who gets wounded has about a 50/50 or worse chance of dying from an infection that turns into sepsis. They are so incapacitated by this that they will raid hospitals to demand treatment of their casualties.

And a lot of enemy in both Iraq and Afghanistan have turned themselves in because without treatment they are dead. Ironically, by the time an infection had turned to sepsis, it was almost always too late.

Don’t forget to stock supplemental “C” in your survival pantry along with a bunch of those inexpensive Orange drinks powders that are fortified with Vitamin C. If you’re drinking boiled water, a scoop of Tang in the pitcher makes it taste better and is a good preventative tonic to boot.
