I caught a patient going into septic shock a few weeks ago. He, like everybody else in the long term acute care facility, was taking ascorbic acid (vitamin C). That was a great night though because I’m pretty sure my persistence and due diligence saved a man’s life. Anyways, I see sepsis all the time. Vitamin C might help but i have my doubts that it is a miracle cure.

An large intravenous jolt would be different, no?

The article doesn't mention dosage levels, but when it's used for serious infections patients don't "take" vitamin C. It's used as injections or intravenously in doses up to 100 grams per day. There's a lot of much older evidence than this on the use of vitamin C for many infectious conditions.

“Vitamin C might help but i have my doubts that it is a miracle cure.”

Check out “Curing the Incurable: Vitamin C, Infectious Diseases and Toxins” by Thomas Levy MD.

The original work was done by Dr Fred Klenner, a Duke University Medical School graduate.
