“I tried your cold/flu therapy, and it works 100%…like magic!“Great web site! I applaud your efforts.” – G. K. Gloucester, MA
Cold/Flu Cure #1:
8 grams ascorbic acid every 20 minutes
At first sign of cold or flu, begin taking at least 8 g (8000 mg) of vitamin C as ascorbic acid every twenty minutes for 3 to 4 hours until bowel tolerance (loose stools).
Begin protocol immediately at the first sign of a runny nose, tickle in the throat, etc. If not caught at the beginning, the infection can’t be stopped, but you may lessen its severity and duration.
Note: 8 grams equals sixteen – 500 mg pills, or eight – 1000 mg pills.
If symptoms recur, continue smaller dosages of 2-4 g every 4-6 hours for ten days to prevent recurrence.
NOTES
If you place your faith in “medical science” (or those who cloak themselves in that term) when they insist that vitamin C has no benefit against the common cold, you may be surprised that Linus pauling was correct all along.
The ‘trick’ here is achieving very high blood serum levels by mouth as described in the Hickey/Robert's book
ASCORBATE: The Science of Vitamin C.
https://www.amazon.com/Ascorbate-Scienc ... 319&sr=8-1
This recommended surefire dosage is 4 times Irwin Stones recommendation of 2 g every 20-30 minutes for the first two to three hours. If you have trouble with 8 g, you might try lowering to Stone’s dosage for the common cold.
The Vitamin C Foundation's pilot research found blood levels orally can exceed intravenous blood levels, during the first 3 minutes, but the effect is gone after 20 minutes.

The effectiveness of vitamin C in preventing and relieving the symptoms of virus-induced respiratory infections

Results: Overall, reported flu and cold symptoms in the test group decreased 85% compared with the control group after the administration of megadose Vitamin C.
Conclusion: Vitamin C in megadoses administered before or after the appearance of cold and flu symptoms relieved and prevented the symptoms in the test population compared with the control group.
Interestingly, you will not be able to prove that you had a cold because this protocol will completely suppress all symptoms.
