    Thanks @BioEclectic yes sorry i do mean grams.

    Just out of interest, I have been doing co2 Baths recently, using a mix of bicarbonate of soda, and citric acid. Well, I’ve run out of citric acid and found a spare tub of ascorbic acid (vit c). My thought was mixing ascorbic acid and sodium bicarbonate would make sodium ascorbate. Anyway, i’m sat in it now as I write this and it seems to work just as well, Skin is going pink! It seems to take more ascorbic acid than I would normally use for citric acid, But an added benefit is im sat in the bath full of sodium ascorbate to absorb transdermally plus co2?

    Could this be a useful way to bypass the gut and absorb more vitamin C for say a cold, would i actually absorb that much transdermally? Avoiding the problem of bowel tolerance. I’ve heard an IV Vitamin C can go up to 200 grams, so thought would be okay from a toxicity point of view, can anyone see any issues with this?

      Potential issues would be the source of ascorbic acid, if it's contaminated with metals as it often is, and would they absorb through the skin. Another concern with standard Vit-C is the toxic mold remnants from the manufacturing process and if they would cause any issues transdermally.

      The same questions and concerns would apply to citric acid as well.

      I'm guessing you're not using Quali-C in the bath as that seems prohibitively expensive.

        Thanks @BioEclectic. damn! Didnt realise citric acid has the same issues as ascorbic acid, there goes the bath for absorbing co2, though it makes me feel so good in the morning, think ill try the co2 bin bag again.

        Yeah unfortunately not using quali-c for the bath, just orally, probably cheaper to bath in Perrier.

          @josh I've heard of using baking soda in bath for co2

            What about acerola powder, which is vitamin C derived from cherries? Though, it's usually much more costly and the dose is larger to get an equivalent dose to synthetic.

              Thanks @LetTheRedeemed @Mossy. Sorry this may be a silly question, do you need the pair the baking soda with an acid to release the co2 into the water or could you just use baking soda which would absorb into the body and from inside the body release co2?

                @josh pardon the late reply... let us know what you discovered...

                It should be good enough to completely dissolve baking soda into water. It's water soluble

                  the one charlie sells is the best. ive confirmed it is identical, as in the same product, as the high end brands. it’s made in the UK. i used to order it from a diff company and they made a big deal about shipping and they wouldnt send multiple jars at once. charlie’s store is better priced and he knows how to run a business.

                      @josh mixing bicarbonate with vitamin c might push it down the path to become an oxalate , idk if it is actually gonna happen, i just read in vitamin c literature that in the process of oxidizing , bicarbonate turns it into the oxalate

                            Thanks.
                            I compared the cost per g for that one to this one:
                            https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HNS1E0W/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

                            lifegiving is
                            60 g $25

                            The Doctor's best one on amazon is
                            250 g for $20

                            Same product, I think.

                                        I have tried full and partial supplements containing acerola powder. Where the full is 100% acerola and the partial is a c-complex with about 10% acerola, As I'm a freak of nature and can't take most supplements, the acerola was no better in terms of my body accepting it. It very well may be better in quality as compared to synthetic.

                                          I am going to try this vitamin C, sodium ascorbate. Per the product details page: "Sodium Ascorbate is non-acidic (pH neutral), making it gentle on the digestive system. "

                                          This is not derived from corn. I was interested in Quali-C, but that is derived from corn. As we've all heard by now, all corn is GMO, even if stated as not being, due to cross-pollination, pollen drift which cannot be stopped — supposedly.

                                          https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000GFPCO8

                                          Does anyone have any thoughts on this "non-acidic" version of vitamin C? I like the idea of getting more sodium as well.
