There is Vit C, and then there is rubbish.
Too much of the Rubbish is garbage, and bad for you garbage at that.
Daddybob can tell us about Rubbish marketed as Vit C.
He even found some with mold growing on it.  Also, a lot of it is made from 
Corn.
Willisprotocols group publilshed this website today:

Even Xanthan gum in some coconut milk (corn).

        Well I was told that Vit C would also strengthen blood vessels but as I 
said, this only seemed to make things worse.  I have no idea why, other than it 
is a natural blood thinner and maybe this caused leakage in a weakened area.  I 
believe the vit c I used had added bioflavinoids.  Thanks for input.  Dee
