Surely a raging cancer has a higher level of toxicity. I don't hear Cathcart telling us that his research has shown that one root canal nullified all the benefit of vitamin c therapy and getting to bowel tolerance did not necessarily prove that the cancer was being treated.
By neutralizing virtually all unwanted free radicals and toxic oxidants, massive doses of ascorbate can be made to protect the immune system to such a degree that early in acute viral diseases, the immune system can usually destroy the pathogen within hours. When used later in the course of an acute viral disease where the pathogen has established itself intracellularly in significant numbers of cells, massive doses of ascorbate can protect the immune system, suppress most symptoms, and prevent secondary complications until the immune system destroys the pathogen by secondary means such as with antibodies.
Patients must be encouraged to take these massive doses. Patients taking vitamin C on their own, seldom take doses high enough to discover this effect. I do not want to give the impression that this method is easy to use; the mechanics of taking these doses can be very difficult for many patients. Nevertheless, when properly instructed, the majority of patients are able to achieve these effects. If a patient is relatively intolerant to oral ascorbate only because of gastrointestinal complaints, and if his disease is one that usually responds to oral ascorbate in tolerant patients, and if the severity of the condition warrants the inconvenience and expense, then intravenous ascorbate is indicated.
Such effects of these large doses of ascorbate cannot be readily explained from its known vitamin functions. The spectrum of diseases affected by massive doses of ascorbate is a wonder in itself, but also gives some hint at the probable mechanisms involved. The sudden detoxifying effect experienced clinically only at the very high threshold doses, suggests that ascorbate is participating in chemical reactions where a critical concentration of ascorbate is necessary, or where a certain ratio between ascorbate and certain other reactants must be achieved. The concept that free radicals and other highly reactive oxidants are a frequent factor in pathologic processes (7,8) and that ascorbate is an antioxidant free radical scavenger, could explain much of this.
Taking high molecular weight aloe vera gel along with the vitamin C will also increase blood levels. Lily of the Desert have paid for the scientific proof of this claim. But if you take one half ounce or one ounce aloe vera juice/gel for every dose or two of vitamin C then your money saving may be slim to none.ofonorow wrote:... However, it does argue for Lypo-C which has been shown to increase blood levels better than ordinary oral forms (See; Vitamin C The Real Story by Hickey/Saul).

For starters, it would be useful to establish whether or not there is in fact an underlying "toxicity" which is affecting Scott's lab values. If it is bacteria harbored by the root canals, then there should be some way of objectively assessing this. If the bacteria are in a place where the immune system is unable to combat them as Owen suggests, then it raises the question of how the bacteria can then have any effects on distant organs, unless there is a one-way street.

They receive their food and release their waste products through small passageways called dental tubulines. These are too small for the body's immune system.
Hal Huggins discussed this question in an excellent interview by Patrick Timpone - the link to the interview is here:

Discussion of root canal toxicity and porphyrins begins at minute 20.
The discussion of testing root canal using the DNA of root canal bacteria, of diptheria toxins, of dental tubulines and so on begins at minute 28.
