You are not old enough to have vascular dementia. Were you taking other prescription meds or had vaccines, antibiotics (especially Cipro, Levaquin, Avelox, and Tequin, Z-pack...) prior to the onset of the problems? From the drugs they tried, it is clear they are clueless, bumbling in the dark (or covering for previous damage with other drugs or treatments), making problems worse and turning you gradually into a lifelong subscriber to their goods & services.
In any case, you may wish to try Liposomal Vitamin C, which should in any case improve vascular health, help detox (including antibiotics, heavy metals) and reverse damages from variety of autoimmune or inflammatory conditions. Info: article1 and article2 by MD, Liposomal C wiki which has instruction for DIY recipes (requires kitchen blender & small ultrasonic jewelry cleaner besides lecithin & sodium ascorbate), and numerous user experiences (see sample below). Besides vitamin C (best is to use sodium ascorbate), the other main ingredient, lecithin (I use non-GMO sunflower lecithin), being a choline source and a building block for myelin is used on its own to help against memory & cognitive issues. Since I started making it and using (for about a year now) it has resolved some chronic inflammatory problems and pretty much replaced all other nootropics and supplements (I stil take some CoQ10, ALCAR & L-Tyrosine). I first learned about it from another health forum, where a user "dominicus" (see below) started a thread with provocative title "I make my own liposomal vit C. This stuff is frickin AMAZING!!!!!", which initially brought general ridicule, but then as one after another forum participant tried it, s/he would become instant believer. Within couple months all participants were making it and evangelizing about it (few of them created later the wiki above).
USERS EXPERIENCES
dominicus, "Since i started it last week, its been like drinking coffee all day long. I have vast reserves of energy, 10 miles a day on the bike, or 40 mins of cardio, my stamina is awesome, my recovery time from exercise awesome. I gave to one of my cousins who is tired all the time, and the next day he jumped on his mountain bike and did 25 miles in 95 degree weather, parked his bike, and walked 2 miles to my house to celebrate this awesomeness with a few Belgian beers. This has been by far the best thing i have ever taken supplement wise. My grandma had a bad flu, gave this to her and the next day she vacuumed her whole apt, did laundry, dishes, and cooked and shes 80 years old and said this vit C stuff is frickin awesome and takes it daily now. It has also given me vast sexual energy and random erections like as if i have ate a bunch of ginseng. I cant give enough thumbs up to this stuff"
...
"I gave this stuff to my 80 year old grandmother w the flu and she cleaned her whole house the next day. My cousin took some and rode 25 miles on his bike. Me and 3 of my family members are swearing by the awesomeness of this stuff and now MegaMind, another member of this thread, has also made his own, taken it, and him and his gf are already feeling benefits that they otherwise didn't feel from regular oral vit c. Something is definitely up with this vit c combo and its been the supplement that i have felt the biggest and bestest difference with. Its literally changed my life for the better in the last 8-9 days, and i came into this as a skeptic"
ColeYounger, "The first positive effect that I experienced (as did MegaMind) was a noticeable improvement in my vision. I have near 20\20 vision, but it's sharper now. It's obvious. That alone would probably be incentive to use it.
Also have more energy, but at the same time am feeling calm, with a sense of well-being. (Unlike caffeine)
(I'm usually grouchy and irritable, as I have a chronic pain issue from 2 herniated lumbar discs years ago. I posted earlier in the thread about my using apple cider vinegar. The acv has done wonders for my joint pain and arthritis.)"

"I've waited a couple days before posting again because I elicited some comments from cynics who told me I was experiencing the placebo effect. Fair enough... I wanted to put it to the test a bit more. Aside from experiencing more energy, I reported a sense of "well-being". I can see how that comment brought out the skeptics. A "sense of well-being" is a vague description that sounds very psychsomatic... like I was indeed convincing myself that the mixture was 'working'.
I took the liposomal C last Friday, then again Saturday and very early Sunday. I didn't take the mixture yesterday(Monday) I wanted to see how I'd feel, having laid-off the mixture for a full day. I explained a ways upthread that I have chronic pain and chronic fatigue from a combination of back\neck\hip injuries.
I took a dose (1 teaspoon) three hours ago. Results are impressive. My energy levels are incredible. The sense of well-being is here again. It's almost drug-like. It's so wonderful to have this energy but at the same time feel calm. The mixture also definitely boosts vision. (very non-medicinal terminology, sorry)
Once again, thanks dominicus!"
MegaMind, "This stuff is unfreaking believable! Phenomenal! The contrast to what I felt 2 days ago is literally like night and day. My physical strength is much improved and recovery time greatly reduced. I've been lugging around 7 gallon water cans (full) today. My mind is razor sharp. Vision crisp. And energy level? I'm bouncing off the walls!
I know that this new feeling will eventually become my norm (and God won't that be nice) and the initial contrast to the way I was will fade. But holy crap I can't even believe how thick my brain fog was before. I can't hardly believe that it is possible to feel this good. I am so glad I found this. No supplement - juicing - or the countless things I have done has ever had this kind of impact. I really did not expect these kind of results. I thought the OP was probably exaggerating. Now I think he is understating the truth. You know if you're in top condition it may not affect you the way it has me. For me this is nothing less than a miracle.
...
You know I am simply amazed. Its day 5 and my mind is so clear. My dreams have even been different in a way that's hard to explain. My sleep is deeper and more restful. My body's joints seem to move easier. I never felt like they were stiff before but somehow they feel like they are well oiled.
Last night I was up late and was able to read and focus without the usual dulling that occurs. Looking back on the way I was just last week I think about how tired and sleepy I was - all the time. Sleep was never very good. My mind was definitely in a serious brain fog. Last week when reading something I wrote many years ago I worried that my mental capacity was diminishing - that I wasn't as sharp and quick minded as I used to be. Now I feel like my former self from many years ago. Its wonderful."
...
"I got a report back from another person I got to try it. They said it made their stomach feel flat - in other words no bloated feeling that they usually have. I too can confirm that has happened to me also. I frequently suffer from severe bloating after meals and I have noticed that the vit c formula seems to have prevented this from occurring. Also many times after taking it before a meal I get very hungry, then while eating I get really full (earlier than usual) and can't eat anymore. I'm guessing its all related. I have no idea what dynamic is causing that but its a welcome change."
Sirric, "Update ... It's been 3 hours since we took our concoction and my wife and I are feeling way more energetic than we should this time of day. I am finding myself moving around the house randomly and my spousal unit is prancing around in a much higher state of enthusiasm, she is clearly affected by this.
So far, we both agree that we have much more energy, like caffeine intake, but without the shakes associated with that feeling. Eyesight is the same for me and the bathroom feeling is subdued for now. I do find myself zoning a lot more too.
If this is a placebo effect, It is a first for me since I've done lots of remedies and none have provided as quick as this response and accurate feeling that other report so clearly. I'm sold! For me, this is the real deal and I'm flabbergasted about the results as I was skeptical anything would really happen. Thank you Dom for introducing this to me."
OblivionGate, "Well, day three of my lipo-c regiment and I feel absolutely fantastic! Besides the increase in energy I feel, my lower back pain is almost non-existent, and I can roll out of bed in the morning without having to ratchet my back straight. I'm less stressed at work and have far more energy to expend on my kids than usual. I have even noticed more clarity in my thinking, as well. I will report back in a few days with more updates. Hope everyone is well. "
BlueSquid, "This thread came along at the perfect time for me. My allergies were so severe this year. I looked for some advice on the internet, and discovered vitamin C as a histamine destroyer. Started taking mega doses, and felt immediately better."
Sabreblade, "Well it's been three hours, second day in and I still got nothing. And my shoulder/neck is even bothering me, feels like a pulled muscle. I'm considering taking another tablespoonful before lunch to see if that has any effect. That would be four hours apart. Maybe I am not taking enough since before starting this I usually take 5-10 grams of C a day orally anyway."
Amandia, "I´m going to take double dosage tomorrow, because energy weared off at one point and I fell asleep, but this is typical for my ADD, if I dose stimulating things wrongly or they just wear off. I took another 2 tablespoons about 14 p.m, then went cycling, felt fine, but later, about 19-20 got sleepy.
But the huge different from all other stimulants is my inner feeling. To my surprise it makes me more social. Not more talkative, but friendlier, more patient, interested in people, relaxed in public places. If I´m tired and feeling low energy, then I usually don´t want to communicate much and if I overuse stimulants, then I feel impatient and a bit agitated. Of course not all the time, but sometimes it´s very annoyingly hard to be balanced and genuinely interested while communicating. The feeling I have had all day today I´d describe best as "friendly and relaxed". Really interesting! I had sharper thoughts and more energy first part of the day and now I´m a bit sleepy, but inner feeling is still the same. I love this stuff so far
mtiger92, "Update on my dad's battle with kidney cancer: I initially started my dad on 100ml of MegaMind's formula for Liposomal Vitamin C. I estimate his daily dosage at roughly 6.3gm per day, divided in two daily doses. As I was draining the fluid from his chest tube this evening, he mentioned to me that his nose bleeds have completely stopped. Before the therapy was started, my dad had really bad cracked sinus passages, and he was constantly blowing his nose with bloody mucous. I confirmed that he did have reall dry, cracked sinus and nasal passages. I also noticed a complete absence of coagulated, clotty blood discharge from the drained fluid. While the fluid still had a bloody hue, it had zero clots or coagulation. His energy levels have increased, and he admitted to being able to completely recline on his Lazy Boy without coughing. All this is tremendous, given his prior symptoms and overall #ty feeling. I am going to increase his dosage to 8gm per day in two divided doses. He tolerated the 6.3gm dose without any problem, so I am going to increase his dosage and adjust for any side effects."
AlanQaida, "I believe the batch I made today is better, I have had no signs of diarrhea or stomach cramps, about 45 minutes after taking it I did get a small bout of cold sweats then again at 12am, and did smell a bit like the formula, however I had a sudden energy boost at both times of sweating, so I guess that's just my body metabolizing the vC? Also noticed no joint pain, I feel extremely alert, and I had a small meal for dinner and felt quite full but without bloating (same as previous poster).
All in all I feel wonderful, in delivering a couple of batches to some friends tomorrow who are really looking forward to trying it, so hopefully they also have positive results!
ETA: I also forgot mention, i have been urinating frequently during the night, I haven't drank much liquid before leaving for work, and had 1, 600ml drink all might but probably passed roughly 2 liters of urine during the night, I don't feel dehydrated at all either, excess maybe? It was clear and had no odor at all.. TMI?
...
gave my friend some last night, he has been sick for the last week with the flu, he sent me a message at 10 am this morning telling me he has got his dinner ready for tonight, vacuumed his floor, and done his washing. and said he feels amazing, hasn't even coughed once today!"
Thaxter, "I thought the same would be true for me, as I routinely take 6 to 7 mg a day. Well, on my first day I dove in and drank 1 ounce. I then *tried* to drink another ounce shortly after but felt I should go slowly instead.
Later in the day I began to take a tablespoon with water at work, and on two occasions I could feel my body felt kind of nauseous, like, "That's enough!" No diarrhea though.
I think over the course of the first day I took only 2 ounces, and that was plenty for me, even with my usual high dose of vitamin C. So something must be working.
Noticeable immediate effects:
- Crystal clear focus at work and in conversation
- Bright, happy feeling -- no depression or negative thinking
- Wanting to walk (lol -- I'm usually averse to exercise)
- Deep sleep and vivid dreams
- No morning sinus allergies (common with me)
- No adverse reaction to eating a small amount of dairy, to which I'm usually allergic
- Boundless energy
- Better vision
If there is any negative effect, I feel almost TOO wired. This is my second day, I've had one ounce in a glass of water, and I already feel ready to tackle the day's chores with more than usual enthusiasm."
hardamber, "Here are my results. Yesterday was my first day. I took one ounce in the morning and another one just before lunch. I did not notice any effects, except that I felt crappy like I was coming down with something. I felt fine when I woke up this morning. I think I was starting to get a cold yesterday because I was a little flemmy.
This morning, I took 1.5 oz and spent a couple of hours staining trim in this old house and went outside and finished planting the garden. I took another 1.5 oz before lunch and cleaned up the garden area. I took a 45 min nap. When I woke up at 3:00 I took 3 oz. I experienced a feeling of happiness and joy, but not in a huge way. It felt very good. I spent the rest of the day taping off trim and painting the room I've been working on. After the paint dried I cleaned and rearranged another room.
Four years ago I heard about the Master Cleanse Fast. It's a fast where you only drink fresh squeezed lemonaide with cayenne and do sea salt cleanses. After the first ten days I started to feel happy and joyful, even in situations where I should have been stressed out. I would say I now understand why I felt so good. It was because of all the vitamin C. For some reason, the subsequent fasts I've done never yeilded the same feeling. I am so excited to have this feeling back again. This is the best feeling ever. It's not a drug high, it's a subtle joy and peaceful calm. I don't feel run down like usual.
Nine years ago I had an accident and got a compression fracture in L1 in my back. It has gotten so bad that I can't sleep more than six hours without having to get up. I'm hoping this subsides so I can have a life again."
EdwynaGolden, "Well, I finally got my USC and have made 4 batches of the encapsulated V-C. I made extra jars for my mother and stepfather and some for myself and for my friend. My mother and stepfather will get their jar this evening to start them off.
I am like many of the others, who have noticed a profound difference in myself.
I am taking 1 oz twice a day. My friend with Lupus is taking the same. He says that he feels good, but is not experiencing the higher energy levels and clarity of mind that I am. He has all 3 forms of Lupus and is 57 years old, and he's still taking it, (today is his third day, so his 6th and 7th doses). He is amazed at the amount of energy that I have had over the weekend. On Friday, I made a batch as soon as I got home from work and found the box had arrived! LOL! I took my first dose then, with great expectations! However, I didn't feel anything from that first dose. I had promised my son that we would paint his room this weekend and I didn't know how I was going to have the energy if I was not going to benefit from this C.
Saturday morning, I took my 2nd oz dose. And about an hour later, I was feeling a definite difference in how I felt and proceeded to get up and worked ALL day long in his room, climbing a ladder over and over and over... (his ceiling is 12') I took my 2nd dose for the day around noon or 1pm.
I went all day and stopped about 5pm to do dinner and cleanup. I STILL felt good although my muscles ached a little from all the exercise that I am NOT used to doing!
I thought I would have a bit of trouble sleeping by 10pm. because my mind was still so alive and alert, but when I laid down, I was out in probably 20 mins, which is better than the hour that I usually lay there!!
So, the next morning and afternoon, same dose, 1 oz. I'm feeling even better than the day before and completely finish his room!! LOL! I am soooo ecstatic about this that may seem like a cakewalk to others, it means a LOT for me.
I had cancer 5 years ago, had to have a hysterectomy and 10 days later, I was rushed back to MD Anderson in Houston for emergency surgery for a hernia where the inner stitches had broken or were missed (still undetermined) and 12 inches of bowel looped through the hole coming back in. Well, I nearly died from that, but that is a looong story! The reason I bring this up is... It is super common for women who have a hysterectomy to gain weight. It's also common for them to lose a LOT of vitality from such an intrusion. I have gained about 70 lbs since then, and after I work (on my butt behind a computer all week), I am normally DONE by the time the weekend arrives. I have laid in my bed ALL weekend on the computer or watching TV or reading, just because I had no energy to do anything. I would cook IF I couldn't get the kids to do it, but I've let my house go and the kids have practically taken over that. I have gradually gotten this way since the recovery (ALL CANCER IS STILL GONE!!! YAY)... But, over the past 2 years, I have gotten sooo bad, that I don't feel as though I even have the energy to walk to the kitchen for a drink... It's been really bad and this is the BEST thing that has happened for me to get me up!! Honestly, this is exactly as the OP has in his title, "This stuff is frickin AMAZING!!!!!"
I am sooo grateful for the OP and for all of you who have attributed to the 'research' in getting this right and the dosing... etc... You are all such a Blessing to me, and I hope you all continue in good health and feeling good for the next HUNDRED years!!
I also wake up VERY easily and feeling good!! THAT in itself is a frickin miracle!!! I am a tough one to get up... But, I just feel like I did in my 30's...ALREADY
Maybe after a week, I'll feel like I did in my 20's???! Wow.. I am sooo grateful! I was VERY sore last night from the 2 days of climbing the ladder and the painting. I thought that today I would not be able to walk, because in the past, after any kind of excertion on my part even HALF as long as I worked this weekend would've cost me a couple days work and contemplating muscle relaxers...But, I tell you all... I woke up this morning and I don't hurt very bad at all!! Not even a need for an Ibuprofen!! I CAN feel the strain of my muscles a little, but OMG.... I FEEL SOOOOO WONDERFUL!!! Thank you OP and ALL of you who helped me decide to try this... Thank you FOREVER for this miracle!!! I can't wait to see how it continues to help me! And, I PRAY that my friend will soon realize at least SOME of the benefits that I am experiencing now. I LOVE this stuff!!!"
CuriousR "Well I went ahead and jumped on this like a few others on here, and wanted to weigh in with my opinion. All I can say is WOW! The mixture is fairly simple to make, and it turned out exactly like the instructions said it would.
A little info about myself: I'm a 31 year old man, and I work over night (3rd shift) at a hospital. Plus my diet is no where near what it should be. Anyone who works 3rd shift will understand that part. PLUS I'm a smoker, but I am trying to quit.
I've been taking this stuff for the past 3 days, and here are the effects it's had on me so far:
- Increase in energy through the day. - Especially about an hour after I take it. It's like I could run a marathon, but there's no jitters or yucky after effects usually associated with some energy boosters. The only way I can describe it is that I just feel... better! For lack of a better word. I would liken it to feeling more youthful and energetic.
- Sharper vision. - I can definitely tell a big difference in this aspect. Things seem more sharp, and I can read things from farther away. My night vision seems to be improved as well. I'm not trying to say this stuff has given me super powers. Just a nice little boost if you will in this area.
- Clarity of mind/thinking. - Just exactly as stated. I can think more clearly, and my reaction time to certain things and solutions seems improved. I build home theater speakers as a hobby/other income. It's fairly mentally involved at times, and I can tell a difference when thinking about things.
- Generally feel better. - I feel more healthy in general. I usually feel somewhat sluggish through the day, and have trouble sleeping some times. Especially since my bed time is 7-8 am. I've noticed I sleep better/deeper, and I wake up feeling more refreshed. I've also noticed that I can sleep in more than my usual position which is on my left side. I usually have to sleep that way because leg and back pain will keep me awake if I don't.
That's all so far, but I will be sure to post more as time goes by. A big THANKS to the OP for bringing this to light! "
Gizmoto: "I have been on the brew for 3 weeks, here are my results:
Energy - great, better than an energy drink
Arthritis Pain is almost gone, I could hardly walk for more than a hundred feet without pain in my knees, that pain is gone!!!!.
