The Power of Megadose Vitamin C: My Personal Experience & Research

We’ve all heard that Vitamin C helps fight colds, but I had never come across high-dose Vitamin C therapy—especially for conditions like cancer, periodontal disease, and chronic inflammation. That changed when a friend sent me a video about a man in a coma whose family insisted on high-dose Vitamin C before doctors pulled him off life support. The result? He recovered.

That story stuck with me. Years later, when I started experiencing toothaches and bleeding gums, I decided to test high-dose Vitamin C myself—and the results were incredible!


What is Megadose Vitamin C?

The concept of high-dose Vitamin C therapy was first proposed by Linus Pauling, a two-time Nobel Prize winner and one of the most influential scientists in history. In 1966, biochemist Irwin Stone suggested that humans require much higher doses of Vitamin C than previously recommended.

🔹 Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA): 45mg/day (World Health Organization)
🔹 Linus Pauling’s RDA: 2,300mg/day for optimal health
🔹 Orthomolecular Medicine “Megadose”: 10,000mg or more per day

Most scientific studies on Vitamin C have used less than 1,000mg, far below Pauling’s recommendations. This may explain why some studies conclude Vitamin C is ineffective, even though countless real-world success stories suggest otherwise.


My Results with High-Dose Vitamin C

Facing expensive dental treatments, I decided to experiment with sodium ascorbate, a buffered form of Vitamin C that reduces stomach upset. Within days, my gums stopped bleeding, and loose teeth became firm again.

🔹 4 days → No more bleeding gums
🔹 8-10 days → Teeth became rock solid
🔹 9+ months → No infections, no pain, improved gum health

I never had to go through painful dental procedures or spend thousands of dollars!


Why Aren’t There More Studies on Megadose Vitamin C?

Despite decades of anecdotal evidence, scientific studies remain inconclusive due to:

Low Doses Used – Many studies use only 1,000mg or less, well below megadose levels
Oral vs. IV Vitamin C – Intravenous (IV) Vitamin C reaches higher blood concentrations, but studies rarely test it
Small Study Groups – Many studies lack large-scale trials

A 2010 review of 33 years of Vitamin C research for cancer treatment concluded:

📝 “We still do not know whether Vitamin C has clinically significant anti-tumor activity.”

But while science debates Vitamin C’s effectiveness, many people—including myself—are seeing real, undeniable results.


Before You Dismiss Vitamin C, Ask:

✔ How much Vitamin C was actually used in the study?
✔ Was it tested on humans, animals, or in petri dishes?
✔ How was it administered (oral vs. IV)?
✔ How long was the study conducted?
✔ Who funded and designed the study?


Final Thoughts

Scientific research on megadose Vitamin C is still lacking, but real-world results speak for themselves. Whether for immune support, gum health, or chronic inflammation, Vitamin C deserves more attention.
