This may not be related to the use of synthetics in perfumery
directly, but I still think its something I should share because it does bear some relevance.
Aside from what we put on our skin, we are exposed to so much other nastiness too, from the air we breathe to the food we consume. Applying phthalates to our bodies sure doesn't help either! Sadly, sometimes certain things simply can't be avoided.
One thing which I think everyone could benefit from is mega-dosing liposamal Vitamic C.
The typical absorption rate of Vitamin C is only about 10%. So from a 1,000mg tablet, at best you're only absorbing about 100mg.
Liposomal Vitamin C can have an absorption rate of 90+%!!!
Intravenous Vitamin C (i.e. drips) is sometimes used in hospitals for patients in critical condition. From what I've read, the liposomal form is even better than IV.
And as for its efficacy..... ooooooh boy, don't even ask.
Crash course: Vitamin C fixes stuff in the body. The typical issue is extremely poor absorption when taken orally in the form of ascorbic acid (conventional tablets).
But when pure Vitamin C is nano-encapsulated in liposomes, you've essentially put it in a vehicle that is the same "stuff" that the cells in our body are made of. So the liposomally encapsulated substance (Vitamin C in this case) is shuttled straight to the cells of your body where its needed, while avoiding the common and biggest issue with typical oral consumption (Vitamin C pills): poor absorption.
I can't even begin to tell you how good it is for you. If you've met me in person, I
know you'd be a believer. My body has taken mighty thrashings from all sorts of things you can't even imagine. And yet, any time anything happens my recovery is remarkable. I mean absolutely remarkable. I mean, dude-what-the-heck-why-aren't-you-in-the-hospital remarkable. I haven't been sick in I dunno maybe 2 years or so, I forget. I recover from stuff in the snap of a finger. Even physical injuries. Amazingly enough, usually no scars either, even from injuries one would expect would leave a person with permanent scars and deformities.
@m.arif and
@kesiro, you know what I'm talking about.
I won't get into the details, but the most recent one is an incident that occurred on November 28. One I can never forget. I won't get into the details, but what I can tell you is that m.arif just couldn't stop staring at me, when he saw me just a couple weeks apart.
Back to the liposomal Vitamin C. Its just SO good, and I can vouch for its efficacy first-hand, that I simply
have to share it with everyone.
I can even take up to 25,000mg a day (considered therapeutic mega dose, when you have a specific ailment which you want to target) without even getting an upset stomach. And 9,000-10,000mg a day on maintenance. On the other hand, a
fraction of that in the form of conventional tablets will cause severe diarrhea, and even worse it hardly gets absorbed remember.
Just consider this:
5,000mg in tablet form: at 10% absorption, you're only actually getting
500mg. The rest you pass through Number 1, and don't even get me started on Number 2 because of what unabsorbed excess Vitamin C does.
25,000mg in liposomal form: at 90% absorption, you're getting
22,500mg.
Sure, there's no "magic pill" that cures every ailment in the world, but if there's one thing that comes close then my first-hand experience suggests its liposomal Vitamin C. I've heard of liposomal Glutathione as well, I don't know if maybe that would be even better (it is the mother of all "fixers" after all, but once again terrible absorption when taken orally as conventional capsules) but I haven't tried it so I can't comment on it. I do have some Glutathione at home so maybe I'll try making a liposomal batch with it.
But for now, I can vouch for Vitamin C first-hand. From physical/external to disease/internal stuff I can vouch for it, for too many things to count.
The reason why I'm mentioning it here is because Vitamin C fixes stuff when its mega dosed. With all the junk we are exposed to in this day and age, whether we can help it or not, our bodies need some serious fixing.
Now if only Vitamin C could miraculously regenerate worn out corneas...
