This review is from: Vitamin C: Who Needs It? (Paperback)
For anyone serious about the use of Vitamin C in everyday health issues this book is a must have.In a language that even a simpleton could understand this book will either leave you rushing to the health store for your first bottle of vitamin C or reinforce your already smug attitude on the use of vitamin C.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who needs vitamin C? We all do., April 14, 2007

(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Vitamin C: Who Needs It? (Paperback)
Ever wonder how wild animals like rabbits, squirrels, deer, etc. can live outside in cold weather and not catch colds while we humans routinely catch colds living in our warm dry houses? The answer is surprisingly simple: animals don't catch colds, or get any of a host of other illnesses which plaque humans, because most animals manufacture vitamin C every day and we humans don't. That's right, almost all animals except humans manufacture vitamin C in their bodies every day and they manufacture a lot of it -- a typical animal manufactures 20 mg of vitamin C every day for every pound it weighs. An animal weighing as much as a 150 lb. human would manufacture at least 3,000 mg of vitamin C daily and humans need about this much vitamin C too. But the government, and most physicians, tell us humans that we only need about 60 to 90 mgs of vitamin C daily. 60 to 90 mgs of vitamin C daily isn't enough vitamin C to keep a typical cat healthy, and is far short of what adult humans need. No wonder we humans catch colds in the winter and suffer from a variety of other ailments all year long. Fortunately some humans recognize the importance of vitamin C and take it as a supplement every day. Those who don't take supplemental vitamin C should do so, for a variety of health reasons which this excellent book discusses.
