I had a very bad dental infection due to old dental implants. I was really sick with tetanus as the time and had no money to go to a doctor, so I tried vitamin C after reading some intense accounts of what it can do. I'm about 6 feet tall and weighed about 250 at the time, and I used about 24 grams a day... it took about a day for me to feel a really definite improvement, and then it was basically gone. I mean, not totally gone because I have to keep taking vitamin C, but the swelling went away and the tired feeling from an infection went away.

If you are diabetic then if you also happen to have a particular gene the large amount of vitamin C that I found effective could be risky for you.

I've used C many times in the years since then to get rid of infections.

I would caution readers here that 24 grams of Vitamin C is a huge amount. I would not take this advice without serious consultation with your doctor. If you have kidney disorders, are prone to kidney stones, are diabetic this is very critical.

Just to keep in perspective.... 24 grams is 48 tablets of 500mg!

I do not recommend anyone reading here do this.
