Tastes like wild hickory nuts.

Interesting.
I’d have no idea. Never tried it.

But ..... I bet you and Euell sure would know.

Good luck to you and God bless.
I wonder how much Vitamin C and E you are taking as both are important for wound healing and tissue formation. Fifty years ago around the time I was having children, I suffered from chronic anemia. THe doctor prescribed taking Iron (Feosole?) which did not help much. Then I started taking Vitamin E for my post partum developing varicose veins and Vitamin C for my allergies. My RBC level soon returned to normal and I then ran across a study saying that Vitamin E could make the difference of only an 85 day life span for RBCs, versus 110 days life span for RBCs with the E. And my varicose veins shrank and disappeared.
Dr. Robert Cathcart has written a lot of interesting material on therapeutic use of Vitamin C for many serious illnesses and conditions. An interesting study in TUrkey in 2021 showed that the Dr. Zelenko Covid protocol for Covid using zinc, HCQ, and Azithromycin (Zelenko later preferred Doxycycline) was effective Covid treatment, but adding some days of 25 gram IV Vitamin C shortened hospital stays by 3 weeks. TAKE THAT, Remdesivir! The only death in this study of nearly 250 older hospitalized patients, many with comorbidities had only ONE death. This elderly woman, I think with cancer, was acutely deficient in Vitamin D.
Aside from interest in Zinc I gained from learning about Dr. Zelenko’s work, I began reading a number of studies as I had three loved ones in fall 2022 all dealing with cancer, including prostate, and colon with metastatic liver cancer. One study from late spring 2020 found that the two cancers I just mentioned plus 7 other common cancers all had zinc defficient cancerous tissue even when surrounding healthy tissue was well supplied with zinc. These doctors were enthusiastic about the idea of giving more zince, and even using some form of ionophore to help the zinc get into cancer cells. Some ionophores we have heard of include HCQ, Ivermectin, Quercetin, HGCG (green tea), and Resveritrol. There are others as well. The summer of 2020 I tried at least 6 times to write in AOL comments at their articles explaining the possibility of zinc and an ionophore helping save Covid patients lives and health. I was censored on each of these occasions for violating “community standards” with my polite science based words. No such censorship for all the nasty things said about Trump or Biden in the comments for these same articles.
Therefore I was not surprised to see that a few months after late Spring 2020, in further writings, these scientists were a lot more subdued in their enthusiasm for ZINC as a miracle find for possible cancer treatment. However I enthusiastically added this to supplements I was providing to the two people who were still actively treating their cancers, the third person was finished with apparently successful treatment for the moment. Another study indicated that Astaxanthin, which I was already taking successfully for my cataracts, apparently increased apoptosis (natural death) of cancer cells while providing longer life for normal cells. So I added that to their supplements.
The prostate cancer now seems to be completely stopped for the past year. Unfortunately my brother whose liver cancer was improving nicely, took his 4th Covid shot before I could tell him about the IgG4 class switch I had just learned about. Two weeks later he was on a rapid slide toward death.
Excellent book, and he confirms what I know as a defense attorney - doctors cannot go outside the “standard of care” which ends up precluding all innovations and creative care. The risk their licenses and certainly their malpractice insurance if they do so. They can also lose their licenses for prescribing medications for reasons other than those approved by the FDA and the prevailing “standard of care.”
Thanks for all of the other interesting info.
I’ve had a suspicion that the Whipple procedure is what Kate Middleton had done to her in January. It is a long recovery. I also think she has a history of Crohn’s disease.
Speedy recovery to you !
Please make a point of reading up on Dr. Robert Cathcart’s Vitamin C experiences. He recommends that even completely healthy people should consume 4 grams of C per day, about 1 gram every 6 hours. Amounts he has successfully used for severe illnesses, have been as much as 100 to 200 grams IV over 24 hours.
