    I love the cobalt blue shirt with the blue-based red lipstick…very flattering with her gorgeous skin. Thank you for helping so many during the last two years to focus on skin care when we had little control of our world around us. I’ve literally almost eliminated all of my makeup except a sheer foundation because I like the way it looks on my skin, some eyebrow gel, and a tiny bit of blush / lip tint. I’ve streamlined my skin care of the unnecessary steps and added in treatment products like salicylic face wash in my arm pits and so many other tips you’ve given us. You truly are a gem. I love how you educate without putting people down for being mislead by the cosmetic and skin care marketing. Oh, and I’ve eliminated fragrance. That was life changing. I think I had extreme sensitivities to fragrances which are in most everything! I just wanted to take the time to show my appreciation for your life’s work…you have made a difference in my life. ❤️Lyn from North Texas.

    But I have you for 20 minutes every single day, teaching me so much about the science of skin and skincare, the best products to use, and always, always sunscreen.
    You perform exceptional public service, being there for us every day. Thank you for your expertise and commitment to us.

      It is due to iron deficiency, vit c helps our body absorb iron especially the one from plants like lentils. Plant based iron is difficult to absorb and requires the help of vitamin c.

    I was taking a vitamin c / zinc supplement but stopped when I started taking the AG greens, as it has plenty of both. I did stop drinking so much orange juice (sweetening tea with it mixing it with water etc) because I swear it was making me break out. Maybe I’m insane. But this was so helpful and interesting! We are always supplementing folks with protein after procedures in order that they may heal, but so much more is needed. And alcoholics we give banana bags full of vitamin Bs but again so much more is needed! Nutrition is such a neglected topic in light of the fact that most folks coming into the hospital have terrible dietary habits and the only thing we seem to do is add an ensure to the menu. Kills me.

    I love the turtleneck. I take a multivitamin, and since COVID began I added supplements for vitamins C, D, and K2 plus zinc. I am very cognizant of the placebo effect. However, living with family members who had COVID but I regularly tested negative, I hope boosting my vitamin intake played a part in keeping me negative. At this point, I feel we are all part of one big experiment without the randomly assigned control.

    I’m pregnant and vegetarian, so at risk for low iron. I’ve always had healthy iron levels but on the low end of the healthy range. So my care providers have had me take Palafer (100mg elemental iron) during my pregnancies. I take Vit C with the iron pills. They’re supposed to absorb better if taken with orange juice, but you also have to take the iron at bed time. I’m advised by my dentist not to eat / drink for 30m before I brush my teeth, because eating and drinking, esp orange juice, increases acid related erosion esp before using toothpaste which is already abrasive. So I just take the vit C pill. 🤷‍♀️ hope it helps! It did last pregnancy, my iron levels went up during pregnancy (whereas most pregnant people’s go down because of the increased blood volume)

    Vitamin C in the morning 1000mg. That’s enough with the fruit and veggies I eat but I definitely do not think less is better based on my experience. Too much with zinc definitely creates a copper deficiency and has given me a uti. I also think it helps with flexibility. It also helps my skin look better

    10 days ago, I was in the gym for over 4 hours...killing it! You can say I'm a gym rat. Today, my mouth started getting dry and my energy wasn't as high as usual. Between sets, I looked up xerostomia (dry mouth) vs. ATP (Energy). I learned that the salivary glands are greatly affected by ATP and Vitamin C. I was an epiphany! For the last week, I had been suffering from tendonitis of the left elbow, feeling nervous and this morning a literally trimmed a couple cork screw hairs from my head! I had been supplementing Vitamin C for the weeks before, but had run out. My high energy demands must have run through my stores very quickly.
