I started consuming lots of  sodium ascorbate to protect my arteries when lifting weights.   Usually when one starts taking large doses one can get diarrhea but over time I have been able to build up to 10,000mg per day which is around the therapeutic dosage used by Dr. Linus Pauling.

After some time, I noticed I could pump iron for two hours straight and not get tired.  Then my sex drive went through the roof and I could (at my age) ejaculate several times without getting tired.

I suspected it was the vitamin C!

So I start doing research and it just so happens that C is the raw material from which the adrenals manufacture everything.   We live in a stressful society and adrenal fatigue is a huge problem.  Since the adrenals are one of the cornerstones of hormonal strength, when they are weak everything else becomes relatively ineffective.  When you fix it, suddenly everything else works!  It is super cheap and while there are some adrenal formulas there that use C, they use the wrong kind and in too small amounts.
