So, What Is Scurvy, and Why Vitamin C Is a Hoax?
If you put “vitamins are bad” in the startpage.com search engine, you will have plenty of results.
Note: This article is made possible by Ann’s comment after a previous article on GMO wheat and scurvy in the US.
When it comes to vitamin C, I’ve always wondered, because I’ve never noticed anything beneficial from its use. It turns out, for several good reasons.
As for scurvy, Agent didn’t devote much attention to it in his piece on vitamin C, but his sourcing and the history accurately speak for themselves:
My favorite concoction in Agent’s writing is
VITAFUSION
Contains Vitamin C as Ascorbic Acid, Vitamin D as Cholecalciferol (rat poison), B-12 as Cyanocobalamin (Cyanide), B6 which is likely made from formaldehyde, HCL acid, and petroleum ester in addition to Vitamin E, which is likely photography industry waste, plus 4g added sugar per dose, but the label says they’re made with natural raspberry and lemonade flavor, so that’s a plus!
Ann generously provided the following link about scurvy after my previous article:

This link introduces the history of scurvy, and it provides convincing details that it is NOT caused by vitamin C deficiency, especially because it turns out that, as opposed to the pseudoscience of Madicine, the human body is able to produce it or, perhaps, doesn’t need it.
The whole ruse reminds me of Mercola pushing synthetic “vitamin C” in the article that ticked me off to the extent that I wrote this:
GMO Wheat Is Now Legal in the US and Scurvy Is Going Rampant
Just a few more things to be afraid of.
Quote from the book:
Another great claim of medical science is that of all the mammals on the planet, it’s only humans and guinea pigs that can’t endogenously synthesize their own vitamin C.
The claim is that after millions of years of evolution we humans have somehow lost the gene needed for it.
Dunno what other people think, but this fact suggests that humans don't need “vitamin C” supplementation. As the author of the book also suggests, the body can produce it as/if needed.
Szentgyorgyi received the Nobel Prize for discovering vitamin C in 1937. Well, I’ve never respected the Nobel Prize much, but what the heck.
So, scurvy as “vitamin C-deficiency” can be safely added to the list of invented illnesses, which show further that Mercola has been mostly reduced to the role of a snake-oil salesman and a disinformer. As for invented illnesses, I commemorated a few of my favorites (tetanus, depression, rabies, and the Plague) in the following article:
Sleep apnea and high blood pressure can also be added as symptoms “diagnosed” as illnesses:
Moreover, both Mercola and “The Midwestern Doctor” (they might be the same person) are pushing DMSO these days for pain and a number of other symptoms. That seems like another psyop to me. But addressing DMSO is for another day.
So how would anyone know if it’s not you that’s dissuading these supplements that actually work for nefarious reasons? If you’re saying all the studies and people claiming they work for them are false placebo effects, etc, how do you propose that it’s not your work or those studies you follow aren’t the psy-ops?
Humans survived for thousands of years without big medicine, supplements and health advice. This under some horrific environmental conditions and the argument can be made that we are facing similar toxic conditions today. What to do?
Question everything. If you look around you with an unbiased eye you will see that most of the world revolves around some sort of marketing scheme. In other words, someone is always trying to get you to do something that favors them and many times with little regard as to how it affects you.
