High-Dose Vitamin C and Lysine

---

It’s an uncommon gift to reach 100 years of age – and be healthy. But apart from good genes and good luck, there are steps you can take to increase your chances for healthy longevity.

Long time readers will know what I’ve said over and over again. Too many people gain excessive weight, eat poorly, neglect exercise, and fall victim to other lifestyle problems. They experience chronic diseases too early in life, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. My message has been, to prevent the onset of heart disease, a top killer, high doses of vitamin C taken over the long term can make a difference.

If you hear contrary views, ask about the dose. What doses are used in clinical trials? Peewee doses. And peewee doses of vitamin C won’t stop heart attacks.

Here’s what you need to know.

There are few nutrients as dynamic as high-dose vitamin C and lysine. While they are often praised individually, they have synergistic effects when combined.

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, has long been celebrated for its role in supporting a strong immune system and its potent antioxidant properties. It plays a pivotal role in collagen production, wound healing, and the absorption of iron from plant-based foods.
