C, Proline, Lysine

Post Number:#1  Post by GreenMachineX » Thu Apr 13, 2017 4:06 pm

Just trying to figure out the dosage for each. Vitamin C should be taken to bowel tolerance, basically a gram or so per hour, correct?
How much lysine and when? With food or empty stomach?
How much proline and when? With food or empty stomach?
Thanks.

Anybody?

Also, any chance lysine at 500mg 3 times a day could cause heart palpitations???

Can only repeat what Linus Pauling recommented in his '86 book:
How to Live Longer and Feel Better:

  • Take vitamin C every day, 6 grams to 18 g (6000 to 18,000 miligrams), or more. Do not miss a single day.
  • Take vitamin E every day, 400 IU, 800 IU, or 1600 IU.
  • Take one or two Super-B tablets every day, to provide good amounts of the B-vitamins.
  • Take 25,000 IU vitamin A tablet every day.
  • Take a mineral supplement every day, such as one tablet of the Bronson vitamin-mineral formula, which provides 100 mg of calcium, 18 mg of iron, 0.15 mg of iodine, 1 mg of copper, 25 mg of magnesium, 3 mg of manganese, 15 mg of zinc, 0.015 mg of molybdenum, 0.015 mg of chromium, and 0.015 mg of selenium.
  • Keep your intake of ordinary sugar (sucrose, raw sugar, brown sugar, honey) to 50 pounds per year, which is half the present U.S. average. Do not add sugar to tea or coffee. Do not eat high-sugar foods. Avoid sweet desserts. Do not drink soft drink.
  • Except for avoiding sugar, eat what you like - but not too much of any one food. Eggs and meat are good foods. Also you should eat some vegetables and fruits. Do not eat so much food as to become obese.
  • Drink plenty of water every day.
  • Keep active; take some exercise. Do not at any time exert yourself physically to an extent far beyond what you are accustomed to.
  • Drink alcoholic beverages only in moderation.
  • Do not smoke cigarettes.
  • Avoid stress. Work at a job that you like. Be happy with your family.


Additionally recommended l-lysine at 6 g/d for CVD. I'm sure nowadays he would include vitamin D3, K2, more magnesium, CoQ10 and some other amino acids too.

Heart palpitation could be caused by many things, therefore I guess also from lysine. I never experienced such.
Practically it's easiest to take vitamin C on an empty stomach, like 20 minutes before each meal, and before going to bed in a glass of water together with the lysine and proline.
