More people need to be educated on the chiral spin of molecules. You can have two of the same chemical, with vastly different effects because their curvature bonds with proteins differently. Chemistry is just now getting to the point where we can even start experimenting with different curves of molecules. Though we have long known about this phenomenon. This type of research is probably at the forefront of what we need to do chemically.

Buffered Vitamin C can be created at home, dissolve regular ascorbic acid in water and later add to it 1/4 of the amount baking soda. The water will fizz and after 10 second you will have sodium ascorbate.

Can you tell me more? I'd like to know. Let's say I have a fizzy tablet of 100mg of vit C, do I add 25mg of baking soda? And isn't synthetic/normal ascorbic acid made out of GMO e.g. black mold from corn/lemons?

​@@yaseenyahya Not sure what to do with tablets, I only buy powder. Tablets are probably made with other stuff and will not dissolve quickly in water, if it is a fizzy tablet than again I'm not sure because I never tried it, the fact the it is fizzing implies to me that it already may have some baking soda in it but I may be wrong. If you use regular ascorbic acid powder than yes, for 100mg of vit C, add 25mg of baking soda. Some ascorbic acid is GMO and some is not, they will let you know if it isn't on the label. No Idea about the black mold. Yes as far as I know it's made from corn.

@@katcat5088 I just looked at a long list of foods that contain oxalates and how much. Kiwi's are low-moderate in it. Things like spinach, rhubarb, okra, and to a lesser extent some nuts and seeds (like almonds, cashews, etc) and certain grains/pseudo grain foods like rice bran and buckwheat are *considerably* higher in oxalates than kiwis. We're talking 16 mg per serving vs anywhere from 200 to 1500 mg per serving. Not worried about it at all, especially since I have a diet moderately high in oxalates (because I eat almonds and cashews somewhat regularly, and a lot of legumes like lentils) and I haven't even had a hint of kidney stones in my some 4 and a half decades. Thankfully I don't like spinach, rhubarb, and okra, so I'm not getting super high levels of it. This issue really is overblown, unless you are eating a ton of the former (spinach etc). I also regularly fast with lime or lemon juice water which is very good at cleansing the kidneys and helping to break up potential kidney stones. Often people who over worry about oxalates are either into keto and/or carnivore, which is ironic because these are often eating a lot of animal foods which have high levels of pesticide residues, especially in the fattier foods like butter (animals are bioaccumulators of toxins, the huge majority of which get stored in their fat). I'm A LOT more concerned with things like glyphosate than oxalates. Our bodies evolved along side and eating plenty of oxalates--but not things like glyphosate (which wrecks the intestinal lining, among other issues).

the most excellent presentation on vitamin C - thanks and well done

The real issue is, the synthetic C needs to be the L-ascorbic acid {natural} form, not the D-ascorbic acid {synthetic} form, which is cheap and what most companies use, usually a blend of D and L form. There are plenty of scientific studies showing the cells need to be replete in ascorbate, which will not happen with so called whole food vitamin C. Copper and ceruloplasmin are not depleted until very high doses of ascorbic acid are used, nobody mentions that, and if you have studies to prove otherwise, share them, I need more than your opinion. Using a good fully buffered, pharmaceutical-grade {or better} L-ascorbate vitamin C product that has been tested for contaminants, is absolutely a healthy supplement to include in your regimen. Mega dosing is not required. And remember, if you are eating a good diet, you are getting some whole food C already, and all you need to do is add to it with a proper C supplement.

Then stated, "Mega dosing is not required...if you are eating a good diet, you are getting some whole food C already". It sounds like to me, with respect, contradictory. First you state your cells won't be replete with ascorbate with whole foods vitamin C then say if you eat a good diet you have lots of whole-food vitamin c and it feels like you were implying ...this kind of sufficient? How is it sufficient if it does not replete your cells with ascorbate?

@@MathTutorVideos the studies that I had seen presented by Dr. Jaffee showed that it took more ascorbate than what a standard diet provides to give the cells what they need, according to the science he presented. When I refer to 'mega dosing', I was talking about 10-20 grams/day, Linus Pauling style. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoGT3I-cfbzWnMY.html Personally, due to the way food is prepared, shipped, heated and cooked, etc., I would not rely on whole foods to give my system the ascorbate that the body needs. It has been shown that even fresh food is deplete of vitamin C, since most fruit, vegetables, etc. are not ripened properly, and then what they have gets depleted in storage, shipping , and age. I don't think large mega doses are necessary unless you are fighting something. But a gram or two {not found in a day's food supply} of a clean, buffered ascorbate will give the cells what they need, without putting the body into an oxidative state. I am not a scientist, this is just the way I see it, currently. Whole foods may be 'enough', but not 'optimal'.

The study I'm referring to used 600mg and showed an average decrease of 20% in ceruloplasmin activity (link: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3694287/). Whether you should go with AA or whole food C comes down to your individual nutrient levels and what you want to achieve. So it's impossible to say without knowing who you are talking to.

@birage9885

@@felix-harder Interesting. what they don't investigate is, when something lowers or raises something, does it normalize? For instance, something may cause an increase in prolactin, but then the body normalizes it after a while. Some things can raise blood pressure, but raising it is not as important as if it stays raised. So, my question would be, what ceruloplasmin levels do their' tests represent, ceruloplasmin just after taking the AA, or ceruloplasmin hours later, etc. Levels of protein carriers, hormones, enzymes, etc. can be affected spontaneously or chronically, and should be tested to verify. If something you consume changes something in your serum, how long does that last, and is it fair to say that something is overall high or low, if it is a short lived response to something. Many of these studies are missing key factors in drawing conclusions. Something I am curious about.

Nice info. What about time released vitamin C forms though ? Because the levels quickly go down again in the body (within 3 hours or so).

Your presentation was very easy to listen to and informative. Your voice is pleasant.

Your voice is so soothing ❤. I prefer Vitamin C from citrus.

Guava has a lot of vitamin C per single Guava, I prefer the Egyptian variety Another vitamin C hack common between Egypt and India is to blend limes with rind on in a blender then use the colander to grt the pure juice. Add whatever sweetner you like during blending

My alternative doctor told me to use only Natural Vitamin C. He told me to throw away my absorbic acid Vitamin c. So, every day I have a variety of kiwi, oranges, lemons, sour kraut, Camu Camu, black berries, raspberries, guava juice ( guava, IF I can find it), parsley, Brussels sprouts, through out the day.

Felix, you should get a doctorate in nutrition. Thanks for the info. 👍

My friend. Excellent work. I appreciate your work - sometimes I've wondered if this kind of thinking and information hadn't completely disappeared from the plant. This I... I can see that you have a great deal of interest in the subject, so maybe there is a chance that you will understand me when I say this, but when I heard you speak the words "buffered Vitamin-C" I felt such joy, slow and deep, that it will last possibly for many days. That's all I can say about it. It is some truly fascinating subject matter. Is it not?

Your voice has an ASMR quality to it. 😊

How about fermented vitamin c?

One could argue against that the natural and synthetic vitamin C molecule is the same, as in nature vitamin C forms complexes which means it is an entirely different molecule that could have different properties (yes, that is mostly until the molecule gets broken apart again but upto that point this changes the bioavailability and how it is transported in the gut) - one of my favorite examples of this is the ascorbigen molecule that is formed in cabbages and the content of which increases in fermented cabbages. It is formed by its precursor glucobrassicin. Glucobrassicin is enzymatically hydrolyzed to indole-3-carbinol, which in turn reacts with l-ascorbic acid ending up as ascorbigen. For same molar amounts, ascorbigen is more effective in the body compared to ascorbic acid alone. The indole parts of the molecule probably add their benefits. Mainly about bioavailablity though. Because the molecule breaks down in the gut if I remember correctly - but you can confirm this further Felix. Anyway, interesting topic, good video!! Edit: oh lol, I watched the video a bit further and there was ascorbigen already.. lol. Never mind. Your video quality is hard to beat.

I cant believe how good your videos are. I was also suspicious about ascorbic acid because its made of corn. And it gave me side affects like too bad fatique. Its like all my energy leaves my body. I cant even sit. I have to lay down. I never recommend ascorbic acid made of corn. I tried different brands. Both gave me fatique and dizziness at night.

I love this video and the time and research you put into the presentation. The only thing you missed, which I was eager to see comparisons on is Vitamin C from freshly squeezed or eaten citrus or plant based versions of intake, and absorption and what’s needed for fighting germs?

But that's exactly the statement that needs more research...

Linus Pauling made a convincing argument when he appeared on the Phil Donahue show (yeah, I'm old). Briefly, he said we lost the ability to produce it ourselves when we were eating a lot more fruit, but that other mammals which are similar in weight, like a goat, produce fifteen grams per day. He said if we consume that much it would be converted into other things we can use. He also warned that abrupt cessation would cause one to catch a cold or be more likely to get sick so we should taper off. I followed his advice for a couple of years back in the 80's with no ill effects, "that I know of." I did catch a cold when I quit without tapering off, and did not catch any colds while using it (I don't think that proved anything). I have always wondered if his claims were sufficiently researched, proven or debunked. However, I never looked into it. For the last twelve years I've just tried to eat from each of the color categories of vegetables to get a variety of phyto-nutrients, consume at least half a cup of beans or tofu for protein and supplement sometimes with calcium citrate, K and D. I don't think I eat especially healthy as I'm eating sugar, ice cream and alcohol in moderate amounts.

Yeah, Linus Pauling was a big advocate of taking mega dose of vitamin C, and published Vitamin C and the Common Cold (1970), also Cancer and Vitamin C (1981). Unfortunately, he also died of prostate cancer at the ripe old age of 93. Compare and contrast Linus Pauling with Warren Buffett who drinks Coca-Cola daily, eats breakfast at McDonald's and routinely plays Bridge for his exercise, also 93 years old was diagnosed with stage 1 prostate cancer in 2012 for which he received radiation treatment and as of the current date still alive and well, although he may wear Depends now. The people commenting here are probably into astrology, new age medicine, crystal healing stones, aromatherapy, veganism, etc. There is no Fountain of Youth and 62 will never be the new 25.

I am reminded of a young Murican I met in Nairobi many years ago. He commented that I was not taking my vEYEtamins. I commented that I got my vitamins from my food. Shortly afterwards, I heard him phoning his mother to tell her about this great new idea of putting vEYEtamins in the food!

Great video💞💞💞

I find taking ascorbic acid mixed with magnesium bicarbonate works great for me. My daughter who have a very sensitive stomach have to take the liposomal vitamin C which cost over $40 dollars for a box containing 30 packets. I'm cheap and tolerate ascorbic acid with magnesium bicarbonate well and it keeps me more regular so I like it better.

Which brand

I've been taking Ascorbic Acid 1g megadose for a while and developed some kidney stones. I thought it's not vit C because I've been hydrated well, but then I stopped it just in case. Kidney stone gone after another ultrasound, and so I resume taking it again at 500mg this time. And then developed kidney stone again. I looked it up and I learned that I'm part of the small unfortunate population with this kind of reaction to vit c. I stopped taking it and took Zinc instead ever since.

@@Inisfad Hi, vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant and can directly quench free radicals in aqueous milieu (including within cells), but [presumably in cell environment] may also recycle vitamin E and other antioxidants by returning them to a reduced state, and thereby suppress oxidative damage. Read more: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7844109/ In conclusion: they are routinely taken together and I have read somewhere that they should be taken together in the mornings.

The most important thing is to know why you should supplement vitamin C. For example, vitamin C deficiency is a problem with the quality of collagen. Our entire body is made of collagen, including our blood vessels. Long-term vitamin C deficiency is the main cause of heart disease. Vitamin C is the basis of supplementation. It is important to provide the body with vitamin C in small doses around the clock.

There is no way this needed to be a 17 minute video. I couldn’t take it

The most natural way to obain vitamin C is to eat foods high in vitamin C. If that food is a fruit, always eat the fruit on an empty stomach and allow around 60 minutes for that fruit to digest and leave the stomach before eating any other food. Also, if eating high carb fruits cause blood glucose to spike, it is best to eat a limited amount of high carb fruits at one time.

Mostly agree except that most fruit digests pretty quickly. It is the most quickly digesting whole food category. 20 to 30 minutes is more reasonable. There are exceptions, like high-fat avocado.

For some reason I was expecting a straight and clear winner and I finally realized that good science cannot give you a real straight answer, just guidelines. Seems like you're doing your homework right!

Good review. Don't see a mention of ester vitamin C, another form of mineral ascorbate and vitamin C metabolites. I've taken this in gram does over the course of a day for various acute issues. Another good source of mineral ascorbates is the Alacer brand, SuperGram II or III, though kind of expensive. Their little powered instant packets are still very popular, but contain a lot of sugar. No mention in the video of Dr. Linus Pauling's research into Vitamin C, which I recommend.

Thanks for sharing Felix. How much Vitamin C with Ester-C (from Solgar) to take daily? Some specialists say 2000 mg a day is too much and others say 5000 to 6000 mg a day. What do you suggest and see as more effective/standard?

I take Vit. C daily as sodium ascorbate stirred into my morning coffee drink along with collagen, Lugols iodine, stevia, and goat milk or A2 half n half. 🙌👍
