Vitamin C and plaque buildup.... I'm not saying they are right - being the "right wingers" and the politicians and AMA in opposition to us, BUT I have a possible reason as to why they might say this or have reason to do so (R Harris can throw some input this way).... i.e. if you are using a pharmaceutical drug - specifically a calcium channel blocker and ACE inhibitors.. they have a tendency to contraindicate with all sorts of things including vitamins.
So if somebody were on those types of drugs and vitamins... it's possible. Let me give you an example that I figured out on my own over 10 years ago and partially led me to this list. I am a severe celiac person, (gluten intolerance) and had a full blown bowel obstruction that lasted for almost 18 months - passing somewhat but still alive but could only eat lettuce and some fruit the entire time. I almost died and Emory Hosp in Atlanta basically wanted to cut me from shoulder to groin more than once and I wouldn't let them. Do you know what the culprit was? The calcium channel blocker high blood pressure drug I was on. I came off it - on my own; the blockage passed a few weeks later and NOW the fennel seed and marshmallow root would finally work. ..key words " blocker" "channel blocker". Oh and while we are on the subject of blockages and celiac - I have found that MSG basically embalms me and blocks me for weeks. I counteract it with goats milk and loads of cal-mag blends. So until this day, now if a doctor tries to give me something, I have to do hours of research to see if it will contrandicate with my celiac and anything else I might be taking - if it does, the doctor gets the prescription in my file 13... You almost have to be a layperson chemist to survive these days.
