Here's a good read
Hypoxemia has been talked about for weeks.
Remember when vitamin c was good, then bad.....now good again?
Also, blood types.
A = not good
O = better

When it starts with....


Anyone can publish on Medium per our Policies, but we don’t fact-check every story. For more info about the coronavirus, see cdc.gov.

I'm kind of reticent.

Haven't got time for bollocks unless it's funny.

And I was never aware of a time vitamin C was bad for you.

It never was. It's just that people thought taking it would help prevent getting the Wuhan virus. Vitamin C doesn't even help prevent the common cold but may reduce symptoms of that cold. It was never good nor bad, just misunderstood.

My understanding is a little different.

It is good. It’s very good. And tests have shown this. We just have a limit in the human body we can store.

It has nothing to do with covid though.

Not entirely true.
Not only that, Vitamin C was an initial highly successful intravenous treatment.
Consequently, the CDC & WHO then came out publicly against it citing it perpetuates the cytokine storm.
NOW, it's being proposed the iron which oxygen normally attaches to as a carrier, is being disrupted "somehow" causing hypoxia.
Vitamin C is now said to counteract the phenomenon of iron separating from oxygen molecules.

Again, my understanding is different.

the theory is that because people thought vitamin C was just great and let’s just have loads was incorrect.

vitamin C is great, but it turns out if you have too much then the body has to work to ship excess vitamin C out of the body.

so in principle it weakens as it takes red/white blood cells away from doing more important work.

vitamin c is not bad for you unless you overdose on it

and even then it’s not that bad unless you have an underlying condition

But you're now talking about IV treatment of vitamin C. I am talking about dietary and supplemental intake of vitamin C. As of course most people will run to the closest Riteaid for a bottle of gummies, rather than get themselves injected.

Your blood type may influence your vulnerability to norovirus, the winter vomiting virus

Blood type A 'more vulnerable' to coronavirus

I haven't looked into this, how true is this? It would seem too early to make such conclusions no? Also, any peer reviewed studies known?

So much conflicting information out there. Especially regarding hydroxychloroquine, from success stories to countries halting the usage of it.
How true is this?

Call 10 people with CV you know and ask their blood type & blood sugar levels.

This is the easiest thing there is to know.
There's a million cases.
55% A
28% O

A= less than 1/3rd of blood types
O = the majority

I'm going to Shertard.
I'm gonna try those guys out.

If you're talking pills, assume uou're getting 15% of 1000mg, assuming you're at other supplemental levels to carry it.

Personally, I juice pineapples, broccoli and oranges.
It's the closest your gonna get to injecting it.
