Acute Hepatitis A
-
Still I hear no reports that they have tested these cases for serum levels
of vitamin C. Understand that this simple test in not being done because
it would reveal the acute induced scurvy present and
then it would take an idiot not to understand that
massive doses of intravenous sodium ascorbate should be used. This
understanding would spoil the sales of drugs and that is not to be tolerated
by the establishment.
- Anyone sick enough to come to a hospital with an infectious disease should
be started on massive doses of intravenous sodium
ascorbate. These patients are dying from the free radicals generated
by the infection. Massive doses of ascorbate will neutralize those free
radicals and save these people's lives. Blood levels of ascorbate should
be determined until it is understood that the ascorbate levels will almost
always be at scorbutic levels. After some experience, it will not be
necessary to test the levels of ascorbate. The ascorbate should be just
used in massive amounts until the patient is asymptomatic.
- For some reason acute viral hepatitis of all sorts (not chronic hepatitis)
is one of the easiest diseases to cure with intravenous sodium ascorbate in
massive doses. Usually, with 3-4 days of 60 grams per day of sodium
ascorbate intravenously along with bowel tolerance doses of ascorbic acid
orally, the feces and urine return to normal color in 24 hours, the enzymes
SGOT and SGPT as high as 2,000 will drop to about 140 or lower and then continue down
over the next week, and the patient feels well. Bowel tolerance doses of
ascorbic acid are kept up for several months along with vitamin E, cod liver
oil, Zn, Mn, Cr, Se, alpha lipoic acid and silymarin. I really do not
know if all these nutrients are necessary in every case because the disease
seems to respond so rapidly and completely to the massive doses of ascorbate
but I give them for support just in case. I have never seen a case of
liver failure, or liver cancer with this program;
So far,
none of the cases treated early have gone chronic. I would
suggest that serum levels of vitamin C be determined. These will be found
to be almost zero so there is acute induced scurvy. Only a fool would
withhold massive doses of vitamin C when this is found.
