Posted: 5/17/2010 11:43:41 AM Edited: 12/10/2019 9:37:28 AM (1)   Moderator Note 2019-12-10: this thread now has 2 pages. Here’s a link to the 1st Reply on Page 2. I’m 1/3 through Dr. Bernstein’s diabetes book and he’s pretty critical of vitamin C doses above 250 mg per day. I have a great deal of respect for his position on diabetes and diet, but this recommendation on vitamin C surprises me. Any opinions out there? Is vitamin C >250 mg per day sub-optimal for borderline, non-insulin dependent Type 2 diabetics (or those who very much want to avoid becoming a type 2 diabetic)? Do the benefits of higher doses (3 to 5 grams of C per day, for example) in combating CAD outweigh the concerns about maintaining an optimal glucose level in the body? Tags:

Posted: 11/15/2011 2:07:08 PM Back to Top   I think Dr Bernsteins gripe with C is that high doses give 'falsely low' BG readings   They can actually be high, but taking C lowers them and the A1c ends up being much higher than what the BG readings were showing. Tags:

Posted: 11/15/2011 3:03:51 PM Back to Top   Even so, if Ptheut has been on mega dose C all along,.....why would the C be what (suddenly) caused an increase.  Wouldn't it be more predictive to look at what has been added into his program from 4/11 to 9/11? Tags:

Posted: 11/15/2011 3:25:34 PM Back to Top   Ptheut added considerable SFA to diet. Added mega dose Ks. Remember when one hit 60-60-60 it takes time for CAC to follow. Thus for ptheut you need to look back before latest 5 months as well for the CAC increasing factor Tags:

Posted: 12/8/2011 4:58:15 PM Back to Top   Advanced as this discussion has been on vitamin C, yet it appears know one has mentioned the use of "buffered vitamin C." I have read from several sources that buffered C is better. Any thoughts on this? Tags:
