The Dark Side of Linus Pauling's Legacy

Stephen Barrett, M.D.

Linus Pauling, Ph.D., was the only person ever to win two unshared Nobel prizes. He received these awards for chemistry in 1954 and for peace in 1962. His recent death has stimulated many tributes to his scientific accomplishments. His impact on the health marketplace, however, was anything but laudable.

Pauling is largely responsible for the widespread misbelief that high doses of vitamin C are effective against colds and other illnesses. In 1968, he postulated that people's needs for vitamins and other nutrients vary markedly and that to maintain good health, many people need amounts of nutrients much greater than the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs). And he speculated that megadoses of certain vitamins and minerals might well be the treatment of choice for some forms of mental illness. He termed this approach "orthomolecular," meaning "right molecule." After that, he steadily expanded the list of illnesses he believed could be influenced by "orthomolecular" therapy and the number of nutrients suitable for such use. No responsible medical or nutrition scientists share these views.




As far as high dose b-5. According to Oregon State University and all their scientists posting toxicity, its only side effect is diarea with up 20 grams.
Also http://www.acu-cell.com/bx2.html will give therapuetic range of b-5 of 250-20+ grams. as safe. Its a whole lot safer than ACCUTANE i will tell you that right now. Look at the damage this drug has done people. Kids loosing their hair, suicide, lupus, permanent joint damage.

You tell me why Stephen B. never says anything about this? Well then you begin to see motivations.

Stephen B. is notorious for being a pit bull for the Pharmacueutical companies. He goes after alot more than Linus Pauling. Anyone that is in any way against pharm companies. He tries to sue everyone, including the vitamin c foundation and many others including dead people. Bet you didnt know that did ya.

Stephen B. has no business arguing with a two-time nobel prize winner when he himself holds a degree and specializes in physcology.

A physcologist is not qualified to argue with a dead molecular scientist who had nothing but humanitarian reasons for his work.

Sorry I dont agree with that all.

I know all about "Quackwatch" Who do think pays this guy?

The Oregon State University is fully staffed by many, many scientists.
Now you tell me who is qualified.

You need to learn how to distinguish the erroneous info and who puts it out there and WHY that is being done.

Is there anything that works for prevention and treating disease other than a pharm product? Not according to him.

Every time I turn on my TV here in the states there is constantly ads running by attorneys because a pharm product has injured someone.
Class action lawsuits filed no sooner than when these drugs hit the market.

I have read no less than 100 articles on ascorbic acid, many backed by the US government and state Universities stating positive things about it.

Of course your going to come across that article out there that says "oh no thats bad".


Sorry Ive knocked out full blown pneumonia with slightly less than 200 grams of ascorbic in 24 hours which otherwise has been known to kill people within days. I was very impressed with it. Doctors had nothing left to give me.


I get fed up with the lies out there and the disinformation about it.

Dr. Robert Cathcart orthomed.com (stamford graduate)

How come Barrett hasnt attacked Dr. Robert Cathcart?
Because he credible thats why.

If bird flu hits, this is all youve got. You had better educate yourself.

I have my sodium ascorbate and I.V. supplies. What do you have but hope.


There are many, many qualified scientists and docs who back these methods.
They are not patentable, therefore not profitable, therefore a threat and ignored or condemned. Its cheap and easily attainable. Of course its a threat and thats why you need guys like that to act as pit bulls.


Take a good look at how the pharm industry works.

It all starts with aspirin.

More and more drugs.

I think Dr. Linus Pauling, Dr. Klenner, Dr. Cathcart, Dr. Ely and all the rest deserve a little more respect. They had no motivation other than humanitarian reasons.

Later.
