Thanks Brooks. I appreciate the confidence. For me it has been over 40 years since my major in chemistry, but I do keep a couple of copies of the CRC handbook of chemistry and physics and about 6 or 8 college chemistry textbooks around for reference. I must say though with the questions on this list, I think I know more about chemistry now than I did then, research and figuring things out, instead of just book learning for a test makes a world of difference.

Although one of my college majors was chemistry (60 years ago), I do not recall enough of organic chemistry (and the variations occurring in a dynamic biological setting) to offer any kind of useful explanation of what is happening in your case. However, having said this, I suggest you investigate converting the ascorbic acid to simple sodium ascorbate (if only for the improved absorption and reduced reactive qualities for the alimentary system). Marshal Dudley is, by far measure, the most well-qualified on this list (in my opinion) to comment on your inquiry.
My apologies for not having more constructive comment on your situation.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.

    Dear Members.



    I have received a piece of information that I am not able to qualify.

    I would appreciate any comment on this subject.

    I do not have not the slightest idea, if this information is
    correct or not.



    Now having completed my warning, the following.



    L-Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) + Salt (Sodium Chloride) - When mixed

    produce Formaldehyde.



    C6H8C6 + NaCl (or KCl) =HCHO



    If there is a true to the above, It would explain my Kidney
    Failure, in

    spite that are very careful in what I eat, and purchase and cook
    my own

    food.

    I was not on any drug and was healthy otherwise.

    However I used L-ascorbic acid as a condiment on about any food.



    Any information will be greatly appreciated.



    Sincerely



    Amadeus

    (This is my real first name)
