Hello doctor! Which vitamin is safe for kidneys? Liposomal vitamin c or ester vitamin c?
Both liposomal and ester vitamin C are generally safe, but if you have kidney concerns, it’s best to consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
@drlam no,I don't have any kidney concern,I just wanted to know whether supplements are good for kidney health?
Well isn't the best vitamin c from food like acerola cherry or camu camu...they have powder form...but what about bio c gel vitamin c and liposomal vitamin c
I take it from camu camu.
It is better only you'd need a ton came camu bc you don't get the mg dosing unless you take a boat load.
Actually you can take a cup of souerkraut which gives you about 700mg at a much cheaper cost than camu camu which is becoming expensive.
@markdlt2989 ahh...i kinda stopped taking that snd was for awhile doing acerola vitamin c from health store
Hi thank you for the video. I just had a doubt when should I take vitamin c. Like the right time of the day? Also, I have one cup of coffee with breakfast in the morning and used to have vitamin c before breakfast. Can you let me know when is the right time to consume before or after coffee?
Thank you
It's best to take vitamin C with or after your breakfast, separate from coffee. This minimizes any potential interference with absorption. Thank you!
Every advice you give i have found to be spot on and confirmation. I like to use rosehip or amla fruit powder. However, as you state, i have to be very careful when and how to take it, as i react strongly and later crash, just as you said. Doctors here don't get it at all. So good to have your expertise. Thank you!
what vitamin C dose and type cocktail do you recommend for helping to heal adrenal fatigue? Thanks!

Sunflowers is how I get my vitamin C in liposomol form.
Absorption is incredible.
That's great
How many MG you take? And what do you feel? Any improvements?
Do you know how they make sunflower? Dont take it. Please
Thank you for your informative videos 🙏🏼
What do you think of things like Camu Camu or acerola and sodium ascorbate
Camu Camu and acerola are rich in vitamin C. Sodium ascorbate is a buffered form.
YES" I totally agree with sodium ascorbate, with maybe acerola etc. I dont think ASCORBIC ACID!! as the doctor above is talking about, is correct! A lot of ascorbic acid is flooding the internet, half of it is contaminated etc.etc. with loads they are selling. I will stick to my ascorbate and check out Dr. Berg. problem is one doctor agrees with one thing and other doctors dont agree
My 16 year old son has Crohn's disease so I worried about c irritating his gut. He can't swallow pills.
I even worry about c in kiwis or cantaloupe bothering his stomach.
Our friend that had Crohn's died from stomach cancer, so we want to be very careful that he doesn't put anything in him that might aggravate the lining of his digestive system.
I'm sorry to hear about your friend. For your son, consider buffered or liposomal Vitamin C, which are gentler on the gut. Liquid forms can also be easier to tolerate. Always check with his healthcare provider before trying new supplements.
wow real good info never knew about thanks
Should I take it half dose in the morning then the the other half dose in the evening so that I always have it in my system?
It's generally fine to split your Vitamin C dose between morning and early afternoon for more consistent levels throughout the day.
Why did Pauling and Klenner insist on ascorbic acid then?
Each type of vitamin c has different medicinal properties and therefore different diseases will respond differently to each vitamin c - so you must use the best form for your particular situation.
Perhaps drinking powder c with water while eating meal can be the best delivery for person with weak stomach. Hope you mention later about this.
Great info about vitamin c👍
very good advice , Thank you
very welcome!
Hello Dr. Lam,
Would taking excess vitamin C cause dysuria & polyuria? Thanks.
Yes it can due to high osmolarity, any solute can draw water and cause you to urinate more.
Which form of vitamin C is best for immune support?
Liposomal vitamin C is highly effective for immune support due to its superior absorption and bioavailability.
@ Thank you 🙏🏽
Great information thank you.
What herbs for below normal testosterone in a menopause woman?
Great question! Ashwagandha, maca root, and fenugreek can help support hormone balance during menopause.Ask your provider before starting supplements
I take sodium ascorbate powder with magnesium powder every nite. Hard to find info on this but I know vit c can interfere with medications and other vitamins.. it's that an ok thing or am I not getting full benefit from doing that? Also lately I've added quercetin dehydrate powder to that and take a zinc tablet 50mg. I've just learned that glucose and carbs are not good to take with vit c because it won't get absorbed. Any info you can give me would be great. Doctors don't seem to be educated on these things I'm finding here. Tia!
I had gastric bypass (RNY) surgery and have no gall bladder. What would be the best form for me to take? Thank you!
Liposomal vitamin C or a powdered form is ideal for better absorption and gentleness on the digestive system.
@@drlam Thank you so much. I will try this.
Gracias por tan valiosas información.
Thankyou Doctors, Can you give us a demo on how to make Lipo-Vitamin C. Yes there are some UA-cam video’s about this. But I would like to see your version of making Liposomal Vitamin C.
We use heavy machinery to make our liposomal vitamin C, so don't really recommend it.
what would you suggest the best brand to take vitamin c everyday?
I would suggest you get a variety of delivery systems for getting vitamin C. Some water-soluble, some fat-soluble, and some liposomal formulations. See more at supplementclinic.com
@@drlam is it okay to take vitamin c even if your not deficient ?
@@alextoronto5840 Yes, there is no overdosing on vitamin C and our bodies don't make vitamin C, so it's always beneficial to have some.
@@drlam this is interesting Thankyou. What times of day are the best to take each of those? I’m in the UK do you ship yours to Uk?
@@helenalovelock1030 Best to take in the morning, and not after 2pm. Ask supplement clinic. They should be able to ship to UK.
Great info, Dr Lam(s)! Thank you.
I'm searching for a safe vitamin c vitamin supplement. I'm intolerant of gluten,dairy,soy & corn. Because of leaky gut , inflammatory bowl disease I have many intolerances. On top of that I have 1 kidney & adrenal gland ( others were removed because of endometriosis when I was 15, endometrial tissue wrapped around the tub from kidney to bladder & crimped it off. ) . So I'm looking for a safe , organic vitamin C supplement to take. Can you suggest any? Please be brand specific. 🙏

Ascorbic acid when i had pneumonnia 💫💫💫💫💥💥💥amazing
Vitamin C is known for its antioxidant properties and its role in supporting immune function.
Respected sir i have a question please ans
I take 1000 mg vitamin c daily (liposomal by livon)
But i see that my stools are sticky and fluffy (not normal stoops like banana)
Does it mean my bidy is not absorbimg vitamin c ?
And does it affect the digestion of other foods also i eat ?
Please ans.
Sticky and fluffy stools may indicate some absorption issues. It's essential to monitor and perhaps adjust your vitamin C intake. It could potentially affect digestion, so observe any changes in how you feel after meals.
@@drlam thank u for replying doctor
God bless u...
So fluffy and sticky stool indicates absorption issues , so does it mean that all healthy food I am eating is not absorbed by body ?
Or some foods...
And does it mean my body is not absorbing vitamin c ?
Please ans

Greetings, I start to think my chronic fatigue might be partially due to fatty liver so I'm going to take milk thistle since this can not hurt me any. Thank you so much for your videos Dr. Lam....
It's good to deal with liver but always start supplements under the care of an experienced healthcare practitioner. "Liver Congestion and Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome
www.drlamcoaching.com/adrenal-fatigue/complications/liver-health-afs/"
@@drlam Hi Mr. Lam Coaching, I browsed your article for now - will read it later carefully just like this one I bookmarked www.drlamcoaching.com/blog/foods-high-in-sulfur-unhealthy/ because I came across also taking sulfur so I must consider your information first and foremost because you helped me with your free advices on your blog and UA-cam channel. Now I must mention while I browsed the article you just gave me that I do not have a gall bladder anymore and it tells me that I must also take that into consideration as well.... p.s. concerning milk thistle, I am going to only take 1 capsule 400mg per day and I always go slow on anything I am adding just in case because I know better...
@@drlam Your quote: "under the care of an experienced healthcare practitioner." There isn't a good one in the public system here, so I using my head (I'm good at it, my late husband IQ was 169 and he was not bored with me) and your advice and experience as well and do my best with what I have. I do not advice anybody but my own self.

Good day, Dr. ... What is your opinion of "whole food, raw Vitamin C" supplements such as the Garden of Life brand ?
There are many different types of Vitamin C and sources and effects. It really depends on how your body reacts and takes the different types of VItamin C.
@@drlam what about Amla Berry I’ve heard that it is very high on vit c “ but would that affect stomach acids
@@lisagardner4814 It's a good natural source of vitamin C, but like I said, different types and deliveries would probably ensure the best absorption in both stomach and intestines
should we be concerned about the high levels of ascorbic acid that are combined with vitamin C that could cause scurvy?
@Gino scurvy is caused by long exposure to vitamin c deficiency, you don't have to be worried about getting it from vit c. The only risk could be an overdose with stomach cramps and diarrhea.
i have bleeding receding gums and cavities, from blood sugar issue , i changed my diet and am handling my blood sugar well now, i just wonder if Vitamin C will help the cavities and receding gum issue
Vitamin C is can help with collagen repair and bleeding gums due to scurvy. If you have cavitiies and receding gums, ask your dentist what's the best options.
@@drlam ok.thank you sir... also do you trust dentist ?
@@frankjames1955 If you have a good biological dentist then yes.
What brand of Vitamin C do you take Dr.
We have our own brand of formulated vitamin c that we use for our clients.
@@drlam How can i order
@@onesent-zn2cv You can find our supplements at supplementclinic.com. Discuss with your health care practitioner before taking any supplements
I want to order vitamin C ( Iv )
Call LAM clinic 714-709-8000 to help you with that.
Hi what kind of Vitamin C is the best
Liposomal Vitamin C has best absorption
Thank you very much for your response 🥰
Hi doctor which brand you recommend for vitamin C liposomal thank you very much God bless your soul
liponano C www.supplementclinic.com/LipoNano_C_by_Dr_Lam_p/662425055371.htm
Thank you so much.
Hello Dr Lam,I am taking 10 g vitamin c and still no "diarrhea", should I increase the dose?
Just depends on what you're using it for and how you feel. There are other signs of too much vitamin C as sometimes it can be stimulating.
@@drlam Thanks Dr!
I have cancer and I read it is good for cancer patients. How much vitamin C should I take please ?
@@emygh7847 Always ask your oncologist before taking any supplements. Have to be very careful about the dosing for vitamin C for cancers because some people use high dose IV Vitamin C at 50-100g for cancers.
@@drlam thanks Dr!It is just there is no IV Vitamin C where I live so I take it as an oral supplement
@@emygh7847 Liposomal form of vitamin C is the best for absorption rate.
I took 8000 mg/ day 1000mg every 2 hours,is it ok or no?I run 20 km a day
It depends on the person, and what type of vitamin C you're taking. Give us a call at +626-571-1234 to know more.
Natural c vs ascorbate.... Any comments?
Different people tolerate different types of Vit C, so any type you can increase amounts of to your tolerance is good.
Is it safe to take L-ascorbic acid with water?
If you mean ascorbic acid, then yes. I'm not sure what L-ascot box acid is?
Dr. Lam Coaching sorry that was autocorrect, what I meant was, L ascorbic acid non gmo. There is conflicting information online saying that L ascorbic acid is not the same as ascorbate and there are key minerals missing
@@Breadstar90Yes, lots of conflicting information online about the source of vitamin C. If you're sensitive to corn, then stay away from corn sourced vitamin C
@@drlam corn is good for nobody.
Ascorbic acid is predominantly artificial and should be mostly shunned or scurvy will kick in

Ascorbic acid by itself causes deficiencies in nutrients that were suppose to be with Vitamin C. A "natural" Vitamin C "complex" should always be taken. Water soluable or fat soluable is not of great importance. Ascorbic acid by itself can cause ill health.
Pls share supporting data or info to substantiate this.
Ascorbic acid is very high on oxalate crystals that can dame the kidneys
@@nobodynothing2594 Dr. Eric Berg has vids on that.
@@McgarickWAstate I’ve come across massive data in the last decade that doesn’t substantiate or validate or support these claims. On the contrary! Maybe EB wants to sell his merch & if so can easily add AA as one of his products.
His stand on VitC AA I’ve never agreed to. The rest of his vids are great.
@@nobodynothing2594 okay disagree with him then. I think I'm going to be getting mine from Whole Food.
What would be best form for a sensitive tummy with treatment of adrenals ? Will iv be the best or liposmal
Start with liposomal or different delivery forms at a lower dose. Sometimes diluting it helps and taking it with food. IV's are also a good option, but can be higher dose
@@drlam thank you sir. I have started with 500mg liposmal yesterday. Noticed increased energy after 1.5 hours. Going to continue with this for now. Also having 4 sungold kiwis
@@tron3652 I'm glad you're feeling better
@@tron3652
What about the acid in those kiwis? Are you worried about your stomach?
Asorbic Acid = heartburn

Not quite right
Ascorbic acid has 30 min half life 💫💫💫💫🫡 intravenous is life Altering invaluable💫💫💫💫
IV vitamin C works fast, but daily forms are great too!
