Heat actually preserves vitamin C if the temperature is below 70 degrees Celsius, because the high heat used kills the enzyme ascorbic acid oxidase, found in fruits and vegetables, before much Vit C is oxidized. Since this enzyme catalyzes the oxidation process, this is actually serve to protect the vitamin.. However, if the temperature rises above 70 degrees Celsius, then the vitamin C will be damaged.

I told some close family about this. You should have seen the look on their faces when I said the words "jewelry cleaner"

Yeah ... I'm "that" guy ...

Well it's been three hours, second day in and I still got nothing.
And my shoulder/neck is even bothering me, feels like a pulled muscle.
I'm considering taking another tablespoonful before lunch to see if that has any effect.
That would be four hours apart.
Maybe I am not taking enough since before starting this I usually take 5-10 grams of C a day orally anyway.

Im big into longevity, anti-aging, and antioxidant supplements since i have always had health issues as a child. I recently read of a new form of Vitamin C which has an over 90% cellular bioavailability rate. IV`s of vit c only have less then 20 percent bioavailability.
On a recent article on naturalnews.com, there was a story about a kid in New Zealand who was in a coma on life support from leukemia and pneumonia who completely recovered from this stuff and there are no signs of his leukemia anymore.
near death, now cured
Since i started it last week, its been like drinking coffee all day long. I have vast reserves of energy, 10 miles a day on the bike, or 40 mins of cardio, my stamina is awesome, my recovery time from exercise awesome. I gave to one of my cousins who is tired all the time, and the next day he jumped on his mountain bike and did 25 miles in 95 degree weather, parked his bike, and walked 2 miles to my house to celebrate this awesomeness with a few Belgian beers.
This has been by far the best thing i have ever taken supplement wise. My grandma had a bad flu, gave this to her and the next day she vacumed her whole apt, did laundry, dishes, and cooked and shes 80 years old and said this vit C stuff is frickin awesome and takes it daily now.
It has also given me vast sexual energy and random erections like as if i have ate a bunch of ginseng. I cant give enough thumbs up to this stuff

Wow, I read most of this thread over about two days. Must say the skeptics are rather annoying. Sheesh. Even reviews for this stuff (pre-made) on iHerb are positive. Let me see, lecithin, natural substance; water, natural substance; vit. C, natural substance. For all the crap that goes into our bodies without our knowing it (GMOs, toxic chemicals, residual drugs in the water, etc.) . . . I'd say this sounds quite safe, if done with a rational amount of precaution and sense. I've ordered my "stuff" but it will take a while to get here. I just wanted to drop a line of "thanks and I'm in" . . . Maybe OP is keeping track of all this? Boy, maybe we need to take our discussion somewhere where we won't be bothered by the "logic only" people who never will try anything that doesn't make sense to them. (What a limited world that must be.)
