AS YOU STATED IN AN EARLIER RESPONSE TO SOMEONE, I CANNOT FIND ANYONE, TRADITIONAL MEDICAL DOCTOR OR HOMEOPATH, THAT DOES THE IV VITAMIN C THERAPY. IS THERE AN ORAL DOSAGE THAT WILL PRODUCE SIMILAR RESULTS? THE BEST MY DOC SAYS IS TO GO TO BED FOR 2 TO 6 WEEKS.
EBV IS THE ONLY HEALTH PROBLEM I HAVE (SO FAR SO GOOD), ALTHOUGH MY IMMUNE SYSTEM HAS NEVER BEEN VERY STRONG AT ALL.
THIS VIRUS SCARES ME - I HAVE A FRIEND WHOS MOTHER HAD TO HAVE A LIVER TRANSPLANT DUE TO COMPLICATIONS WITH THIS VIRUS. PLEASE HELP !!! I'M ON MY OWN HERE.

I am no doctor but ester c works great and I bet it gets into the blood stream close to as good as an IV. It is 4 times more absorbed in the gut than regular c and has a 6.7 ph so it is easy on your belly. I have EBV and it has done a lot. Take ESTER C POWDER and take 2 to 3 tablespoons every half hour until you hit tollerance. You will know it will be when you get bad diraea, this is ok. Just drink lots of water. Note that amount and take 3/4 of that amount divided each day. At first I could take 100,000 mg a day of Ester C now as I have gotten better I can only take 30,000 mg max. This is a great thing be consistant. Do not worry about your tollerance it could be 10,000 to 200,000mg+.
The only way to get rid of this is a wellness program, of diet, skilled relaxation, exercise.

Dear Beth,
Listen to Matt since he has had some experience with this.
Until we had esterified C available there was no way that people could get enough C into the system to reverse viral infections like this is in a significant % of those who tried. Even now, the only way to get 100% (in my experience) is to do the IV of 100 grams a day for 5 days in a row.
HOWEVER, a pretty substantial % will resolve this by just taking the esterified vitamin C to tolerance like Matt mentions.
Most people will resolve this by taking about 12 grams of esterified vitamin C 4 times a day for a week or so------just not everybody.
Since there is no way for this to harm you, why not try?
Let us know how you do.
Walt
