Myasthenia Gravis

Experienced physicians have used massive amounts of vitamin C and other nutrients in treating an astonishing and nearly unbelievable variety of conditions. "Many physicians refuse to employ Vitamin C in the amounts suggested," writes Dr. Klenner, "simply because it is counter to their fixed ideas of what is reasonable. There is no doubt that physicians are being brainwashed with the current journal advertising. I have never seen a patient that Vitamin C would not benefit."

D. Klenner was board certified in diseases of the chest. The Shutes, in obstetrics. Dr Cathcart, in orthopedic surgery. Dr Smith, in pediatrics. Dr Riordan, in psychiatry. Dr Cameron, in surgery.

What you will learn from the documents above may be a good start, but it is only a start. We recommend that you read extensively and then discuss these physicians' experience with your doctor before making any health decision.
