Somehow I don’t think vitamin C and D3 are going to get rid of Ebola. I’m betting on nicotine, and stocking up my humidor.:)

I think that might actually help. Somebody here made the point that Ebola causes the body to use up it’s storage of vitamin C, including collagen. Consequently, when the body does this, there is nothing holding it together resulting in a cellular soup held together by the skin.

I’m not sure that eating lots of fruits and vegetables and glugging down gallons of orange juice will ward off ebola. Especially if you don’t have scurvy to begin with.

Can’t hurt but, the real reason people die from thus disease are:
.
1. Dehydration
.
2. Flu like symptoms of the lungs
.

3. Hemorrhagic effects of dehydration

We are very capable of dealing with the 1st two

Maybe, but they could definitely be helped by a travel ban.

I think the FDA issued some warnings about Vitamin C. In other words, it must be good stuff...

I think people who have been around bees, had 4 bee stings a year, eat food that has been exposed to roaches, silverfish, and people who every day are exposed to measles, mumps, chicken pox, whopping cough, and colds, THESE people don´t have A/C ....how many HOMELESS people are going to get diseases. NONE. Their defenses are HIGH. I think America has been living in a sterile bubble, and even a slight cough ruins them.

I’ve loved eating raw lemons my whole life. While I may have a few more visits to the dentist here or there, I have been only been sick with cold or flu like symptoms a handful of times in my life.

This is the Vitamin c that I take. Many people say that the extra citrus bioflavonoids are a lot better than just plain C.

I take two 81 mg baby aspirins a day and have not contracted Ebola. So I’ll continue to take the aspirin to prevent the disease.

Ebola overwhelms the system to where the body's defenses completely shut down.

Sort of like what Obama wants to do with our country.

Backs in the 1940s Dr. Fred R. Klenner was successfully treating several viral diseases with Vitamin C including Polio and chicken pox. He was administering mega doses by IV.

Lots of good info here:

Vitamin C to Treat Viral Diseases

Suggest you download and read the free book. It's a long read but well worth your time.

Sorry to burst the bubbles of the vitamin poppers but unless you’re pregnant or have a specific vitamin deficiency, vitamin supplements are nothing more than a waste of money even the World Health Organization has finally had to admit there is no health benefit to taking vitamins.

the guy who came up with the idea of taking massive amounts of vitamin C follow up with your number of diseases had won a Nobel Prize for something unrelated later in his career was being to be a quack for his theories on vitamins.

Linus Pauling took 8000mg (8 grams) powdered industrial Vitamin C a day. He told me that in 1970. He lived to be 93.

Theoretically, Vitamin C may help as an antioxidant and with the hemorrhaging in high enough IV doses, e.g. 1000mg IV Vitamin C, (Sodium Ascorbate), administered as a slow drip, every 4 hours. The addition of Vitamin D3 and Vitamin E would be interesting also.

From Here:

" Vitamin C has been shown to inhibit viral replication in vitro (in the lab). And we know that in vitro very high doses of vitamin C generate hydrogen peroxide which has antimicrobial actions, but for this you would probably need intravenous vitamin C."

Another interesting article Here

I'm sure it's not going to be a panacea, but I haven't been able to find anything where it's been tried on a regular therapeutic basis with doses up to 10 grams a day IV. Worth a try with a 50-70% mortality. .

I have a doctor who’s treated serious West Nile infections here in Colorado quite successfully with IV infusions of 50 grams of Vitamin C. He says he’s not seen anything else that helps.
