So that's what the C stands for...

Well duh...Linus Pauling!

I worked with a guy back in the early 1990's who ended up dying of lung cancer, and I remember when he was going through the chemo he was taking large amounts of vitamins, especially C. I remember him telling me how his oncologist made him stop, telling him that he believed, based on anecdotal evidence, that Vitamin C did more harm than good to chemo patients. That was 15 yrs ago. Amazing how many years it takes before studies can coalesce around what is already intuitively known at the street level by some of the front line practitioners.

Congress needs plenty vitamin C right now --- with abysmal rating.

I have a policy. I don't take anything, except a little Crown Royal. No vitamins, and especially no antibiotics. I haven't taken a flu shot or an antibiotic in over 10 years.

Just a pinch of CR between my cheek and gum keeps me fresh all night long.

Yes! With a splash of ginger.

That's twice in one week, Lip. Scary. Please say something I disagree with so I can hate you again.

Whos ginger?

so maybe those of us who have treated ourselves with years of budwieser and wild turkey and a good cigar havent been so off base afterall..........

Hey, want was that woddy allen movie where he woke up in the future and they had found out that smoking and drinking was good for you and that broccoli was bad. They had the orgasmatron. That was back when he was funny.

I'm pretty sure that weed has life enhancing qualities too, because Chips-Ahoys(R) will certainly be classified as health food in the future.

Sleeper

From the time I was young I have heard doctor say that taking supplement and or vitamin should not be necessary if you try to eat properly and lead a sufficiently active life. Taking handful's of various pills to make up for poor habits is really fooling yourself. There is no substitute for doing it right.

TANSTAAFL remains true today!

Apparently you don't work for a law firm.

Whos ginger?

My first choice if MaryAnn has already run off with The Professor.

"Whos ginger?"

Sarah Palin's smarter, secret sister.

Newsflash: 95% of all 'Vitamin C' is now produced in China.

Thanks China, but no thanks, I'll get mine the old fashioned way.....juice an orange.

p.s. 90% of all apple juice concentrate is now imported from China!

Enjoy!

I grow my own.

The Hulkster says that Vitamin C was hot. Remember that song "Graduation (Friends Forever)", brother?

Hulkamania Will Never Die!

I take vitamin C every morning and will continue to do so. I also take a couple of amino acids called L-Arginine, and L-Ornithine and I work out like a mad man. I'm in my mid 30s and I'm in far better shape than I was in my mid 20s. I'm not sure if it's the vitamin C or just the lifestyle overall, but I can't remember the last time I was sick. Kind of weird, it's almost like I turned back the clock when I started taking better care of myself 5 years ago. People ask me all the time "how can I lose a bunch of weight really fast?" and NO ONE ever wants to hear what I have to say so I've added a couple of options.

A. You can have a body part or two amputated. If you follow this method your weight loss will vary depending on how much you currently weigh. How much do you think your leg weighs? If it's not there you will be that much lighter when you step on the scale.

B. Cocaine or meth amphetamine addiction. Ever seen a fat junkie? Nuff said.

C. Proper diet and regular exercise.

Like I said, NO ONE ever wants to option C. I swear to christ, most guys would rather hear that if they just start taking a fat one in the backdoor they will slim right up in no time.
