THE CONNECTION BETWEEN VITAMIN C OCD AND ANXIETY DISORDERS

WARNING & DISCLAIMER: IF YOU TAKE MEDICINE FOR MENTAL ILLNESS DO NOT STOP TAKING YOUR MEDICINE AND TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU EVER WISH TO DO SO. STOPPING MEDICINE FOR MENTAL ILLNESS WILL RESULT IN WORSE SYMPTOMS, INJURY, HOSPITALIZATION AND EVEN DEATH.
THE TRUTH ABOUT OCD, MENTAL ILLNESS AND VITAMIN C
FACT (1) TAKING VITAMIN C AND B COMPLEX VITAMINS WILL NOT CURE OCD, DEPRESSION AND MENTAL ILLNESS
FACT (2) A LACK OF VITAMIN C WILL MAKE ALL ANXIETY DISORDERS, OCD AND MENTAL ILLNESS FAR WORSE.FACT: VITAMIN C AND B COMPLEX VITAMINS WILL IMPROVE SYMPTOMS OF OCD, DEPRESSION, ANXIETY DISORDERS AND MENTAL ILLNESS AND LESSEN DRUG & ALCOHOL ADDICTIONS.
I would take a guess that at any given moment, at least 75 percent of all patients in mental hospitals and all persons who suffer from mental illness are severely low inVITAMIN C. Severe Lack of Vitamin C causes SCURVY, a disease condition causing depression, hallucinations, psychosis and bleeding gums. Rats as humans cannot synthesize Vitamin C from their diet and rats void of Vitamin C in their brains become psychotic, depressed and violent.
Apes and other primates, as with Humans, cannot synthesize their own Vitamin Cfrom protein (meat) and this is why Apes eat a diet almost exclusively of fruits, vegetables and roots, high in Vitamin C. This is why we don't hear of Apes going berserk in Africa, attacking villages and eating people and their children.
Dogs and other carnivores produce (synthesize) their own Vitamin C from eating meat and seldom suffer from severe depression and psychosis. In addition, dogs when under stress produce higher levels of Vitamin C in their system. This is also why large carnivores such as lions, tigers and bears seldom become MANEATERS and attack people, as their functioning brains tell them human= danger. (starvation and disease triggers MANEATERS).
Sadly, Modern Psychiatry is based upon Pharmaceutical Drugs and not a holistic approach that includes Vitamin C Therapy with a good diet and Vitamin B Supplements. Tests on the relationship between Anxiety Disorders in Humans and lack of Vitamin C are terribly inadequate and results suppressed.
We must remember, a bottle of Vitamin C costs between $5.00 and $10.00 vs a Pharmaceutical Drug such as SEROQUEL that can cost over $700 per bottle of 90 tablets, (so greed plays a major role in pushing expensive medicine vs natural cures upon the public).Pharmaceutical Drugs for Depression and OCD Disorders such as Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Lexapro and Effexor, all are designed to raise SEROTONIN LEVELS in our brain, which lessens depression, anxiety and OCD symptoms. What is interesting is that when our Vitamin C levels are very low, our bodies cannot make enough SEROTONIN and the levels drop in our brain and anxiety increases.
OUR BRAIN WORKS LIKE A SEE-SAW: VITAMIN C HIGH= ANXIETY LOW, VITAMIN C LOW= ANXIETY HIGH.
The best way to treat Anxiety Disorders, OCD and Depression, (along with correct medication) is to make sure you have enough VITAMIN C in your diet, as well as B-COMPLEX Vitamins and eat a balanced diet. From all that I have read, 250 MG to 500 MG of Vitamin C is what is needed everyday to improve OCD and Anxiety Disorders. This is the MININUM needed. Some people may need a little more but taking more than 1000 MG of Vitamin C a day will just be eliminated by your system and do nothing for you. You should also make sure you eat at least one serving of fruit and two servings of vegetables per day and eat adequate protein and healthy fat: i.e. butter and olive oil.
As I said, taking mass Vitamin C supplements and Mega Vitamin C with B-Complex Vitamins will NOT cure mental illness and anxiety disorders, but a severe lack will make all Mental Illness WORSE and will cause a patient to be over-medicated with drugs that treat the symptoms and never cure the root problem = VITAMIN C DEFICIENTCY.As you probably know, we hope to re-start the True Church (Matt:16:16) that JESUS came to build and release the miraculous healing power of GOD (in Salt lake City, UT). But we must have an adequate level of VITAMIN C and Nutrients in our diet to insure we stay healthy and reduce symptoms of mental illness and stress-related disorders. GOD could miraculous cure a person of an Anxiety Disorder or OCD but a year or so of a VITAMIN C deficient diet will cause an Anxiety Disorder or mental illness to return and within a years time.

WE DONT ALWAYS HAVE TO LOOK TO HEAVEN FOR A MIRACLE WHEN OFTEN IT IS DOWN HERE ON EARTH, ON THE TIP OF OUR FORK AND SPOON.


(1) The best Vitamin C Supplement to take is a natural form and capsules are better than pills with all of the fillers used.
(2) All Mental Illness including Schzioprenia, Psychosis and Autism in children will be helped with Vitamin C and worsened when it is very low to void in a person's diet.
(3) parents with an Autistic Child should also have them tested for food allergies that can trigger severe psychotic reactions including temper trantrums and violence.


God Bless  you
