Too much Vit C can make you more prone to kidney stones. That's the worst outcome I've heard of

How about using that to treat depression etc?

Just like William Colby with bacterial immunotherapy before it even had a name. Ignored then vindicated.

And back in the 70's Pauling found that intravenous Vitamin C significantly extended the lifespans of cancer patients in studies.

The Mayo Clinic in a fake attempt to "replicate" the findings only used the pill version of Vitamin C in their own study to the tune of around 10 grams. The results were negative and they crowed that Vitamin C doesn't work. And that was that.

Other researchers though who properly replicated the findings got positive results.

Now the science behind it is that Vitamin C produces Hydrogen Peroxide in cancer cells which basically shreds them via oxidation because they don't have as much catalase in them like normal cells which neutralizes the H202.

As for why doctors don't prescribe it to all cancer patients. It's obvious. Vitamin C can't be patented. So there's no money in it.

Babe it was a compliment. I meant you look like you're well protected against brain inflammation.

Studies have shown that up to 20% of accident survivors develop PTSD, so it's important to be evaluated for trauma after accidents.

One time after soccer I ate like 8 oranges and then puked all over my parents car on the way home

Thank you for that factoid!

I’ll return the favor — the top two producers of salt are US and China, and over 70% of it gets used on roads.

Ever eat too many oranges or another fruit? You just get diarrhea, that’s the overdose. https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/vitamin-c/faq-20058030

It's striking how fast the changes are happening, even in our own lifetimes. The impact on the ecosystem could be significant.

Trauma survivors are commonly diagnosed with anxiety disorders, but not all people with anxiety have experienced past trauma.

IRC Rapamycin is a drug given to organ transplant recipients that is also used by people trying to extend lifespan. It has been shown in studies to extend the lifespan of pretty much every organism it has been tested on.

It's mechanism of action is too complicated for me to recal but there are lots of explanations online.

It's a super interesting molecule that has a very interesting history as it was discovered next to a statue on Easter Island.

Evolution is pushing trees to do that anyway. Only drought/flood resistant plants will survive as climate changes. It could take a couple hundred thousand years or so, but it’ll happen.

No, it likely means you should spend more time learning how to read academic literature, or if you can't handle how it's written leave it to others who can.

I have no idea what any of this means but it sounds awesome and gives me hope for the future.

Yes, there are many factors to consider and more research is needed to fully understand the impact of this phenomenon.

Extreme weather conditions and temperature variances are certainly a factor in how plants and trees respond to changes in their environment.
