Atrial Flutter, blocked artery, Starting Vitamin C

[ofonorow]

I have atrial flutter, and one of my arteries is blocked. I suffer with palpitations and breathlessness. Recently I found out about vitamin C and lysine. I have only had 2 doses of vitamin C powder, and already feel much better. Which product would you recommend I continue with. (none of the procedures by the medical profession have helped)

How much vitamin C are you taking and how much are you able to take?

I am trying 1 1/2 gram twice a day on an empty stomach. I did try the 3 grams together, but felt a bit queasy, but this could have been because I was in the middle of breakfast I do want to get it right as the specialist is suggesting an operation, but I definitely do not want this. Many thanks

Good afternoon,

I have had to stop the 3 grams of Vitamin C as it appears to be too strong. Would a lesser dose be as effective?

Many thanks.

Too strong? I do not understand. In our experience, dosage is "everything" w/r to reversing heart disease as predicted by Linus Pauling. Some people add sodium ascorbate or baking soda to their vitamin C to make it less acidic, as even Pauling himself wrote that he did.

Another option is the liposomal vitamin C - such as livonlabs.com Lypo-C.

Take smaller doses and more often. I take 1.5 grams ten times a day separated by 1-1.5 hours.

A friend of a friend just had a mild heart attack last week so I faxed him some info on the Pauling therapy and including Owens protocol form the Synopsis.pdf file. The first thing he commented on was the numerous divided doses and the inconvenience it poses. Hey, I'll take inconvenience or dead any day of the week!

I told him about C being water soluble and the 30min half life in the blood and he understood why it is ridiculous to take C just once or twice a day.

Ridiculous is a strong word. Pauling used to take 9000 mg twice per day, and I still generally rely on that protocol. Taking more frequently is more optimal for maintaining blood levels, (Thank you Drs. Hickey/Roberts), but there still is great value even if the dosage is not optimal. One just has to take more at one time.
