Char- I have it saved but can not post screen shots. Marik’s sepsis protocol is 200mg of thiamine every twelve hours. 1500mg ascorbic acid every six hours. And 50mg hydrocortisone every six hours. This IV cocktail for two days reduced mortality from 40% to 8.5%.

Cheeky NonGMO. -Have wondered if these could be taken as preventive--in supplement form--if feeling flu-ish?

Yes, oral does not get to the heart of the matter, but whenever you are stressed, either physical, mental or perceived, vitamin C really cannot harm you. You will have expensive pee and there are some "experts" if you can call them that, say "it doesn't work", but I disagree! If it works for you, then do it. Linus Pauling won the Nobel peace prize for his work with chemical bonds https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/1954/pauling/facts/

The only big issue, with large doses, diarrhea may occur. (it seems I'm on a roll today about the sh*ts).

Here is the Oregon state university info on it: https://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic/vitamins/vitamin-C

I copied this from a comment by Tonya on the 9/1/23 C&C:

…….

Marik protocol

If sepsis is even suspected, start immediately in emergency department; don't wait for confirmatory testing/diagnosis. Time is of the essence.

*hydrocortisone: 50 (or 100) mg IV q6 hourly for 4 days or until discharge from ICU

*thiamine: 200 mg IV q12 hourly for 4 days or until discharge from ICU

*ascorbic acid: 1.5 g IV q6 hourly for 4 days or until discharge from ICU
