I was told it’s normal to be tired, overweight and sick, more often as you age... And I just needed to work out more and follow a low carb, 1000 calorie diet, etc...
Well, here's the truth... That advice is all wrong... Typical mainstream "advice" like that completely backfires for women over 45...

Eric Bakker, thanks for coming back. Vitamin C: can it help you lose weight? I just read an interesting study where they found … This is from the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2004 where they discovered the vitamin C definitely does have some effect on thermogenesis, on burning fat, with people.
So when people have got adequate vitamin C stores or good levels, they’ve got a 30% greater ability to burn off body fat than people who’ve got low vitamin C stores. This is very interesting. It’s a 15 year old study, but it still shows you that high vitamin C content can have a very good effect on the body.
If you look at the work by Mathias Rath and Dr. Linus Pauling who got two Nobel prizes I believe, Linus Pauling was ridiculed and laughed at by scientists for so many years, but one day his work will certainly be vindicated regarding the vitamin C.
Vitamin C has a profound effect also on the adrenal system. So one of the highest levels of ascorbic acid in the human body is found in the adrenal cortex, apart from the lens of the eye, the cortex has a lot of vitamin C and ascorbic acid.
An expert once told me that vitamin C years ago used to be measured in the body by going to the adrenal gland to see what the levels were like. So, the body needs good ascorbic acid levels also when it comes to the production of adrenal hormones, particularly cortisol, stress hormones like cortisol, but there are many, many hormones made, over 50 hormones made in the adrenals.
So cortisol being one of the more important ones has got a requirement for vitamin C. So, you could also extrapolate that and look that low vitamin C leads to fatigue and more likely to have an adrenal exhaustion which leads to weight gain for many people.
So, vitamin C certainly has affects on the body, not just for boosting immune function up or for improving energy or vitality, but it also has an effect when it comes to thermogenesis, when it comes to burning fat. So just be aware of that, to keep your vitamin C intake high and to eat foods also that are high in vitamin C, especially if you want good looking skin. Thanks for tuning in.

How to Use Vitamin C During a Fast – Thomas DeLauer
We’ve discussed at length how important Vitamin C is for us, but should you take it WHILE you are fasting? THIS IS IMPORTANT!!
Study – Rejuvenation Research
This study was designed as a 10-week double-crossover trial, consisting of two 3-week treatment periods – IF and IF with antioxidant supplementation (vitamin C & E)
During the first fasting period, participants ate a structured diet and during the second three week period, they ate that diet and also consumed Vitamin C and Vitamin E during the fasting window
Researchers wanted to focus on how fasting affected cells, and not weight loss, so participants ate 175% of their normal daily calorie intake on feasting days, and 25% of their normal daily intake on fasting days to prevent weight loss
Looked to see if taking antioxidants in the second fasting period would block the free radicals caused by the fasting, preventing the cells from becoming more resilient
In other words, they wanted to know if Vitamin C and E would shelter cells
Results
Specifically, there was a 2.7% increase in SIRT3 expression due to the IF diet, but no change in expression of other genes or oxidative stress markers analyzed – when participants took daily oral supplements of Vitamin C and E, the benefits from fasting disappeared
In turns out that some level of ROS production is required for the normal regulation of autophagy as well
A team of researchers at the University of Cambridge explored the relationship between autophagy and the production or reactive oxidative species
They found that it is possible to induce autophagy without increasing toxic ROS, but SOME antioxidants do reduce autophagy
However, they looked at N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), cystamine (in the pipeline as a potential HD treatment), and glutathione
All three impaired the induction of autophagy by trehalose, as did vitamin E

Vitamin C does much more than just fight colds. There is a way to target foods high in Vitamin C in recipes for your juices to make fat burning an easy process. It has been proven that Vitamin C plays an important role in boosting metabolism and aiding weight loss. In this short video, we will be taking a closer look at the benefits of vitamin C to the body and how it can help you lose weight.
Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid is a water soluble vitamin and it functions as an antioxidant in the body. What this means is that the nutrient neutralizes free radicals that can cause cell damage in the body. As this nutrient is water soluble, our body does not have the ability to produce or store it. So, in order to ensure that we always have the proper amount of vitamin C in our system, we have to get it from the food we eat on regular basis, since vitamin c deficiency can lead to health problems.
How can vitamin C help with weight loss?
If you’ve been making use of juicing recipes for weight loss, you may have noticed that you tend to get better results when you include more foods high in vitamin C. Studies have shown that eating foods very rich in vitamin C can increase the rate at which fat burn during exercises. This is as a result of the amazing teamwork between vitamin C and antioxidant carnitine.
What carnitine does is help your body turn fat into energy. Even though your body can produce carnitine, vitamin C will be required in other to activate it. Carnitine on the other hand boosts the workings of vitamin C in the body.
A study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition has it that if one has a healthy level of vitamin C in their body, fat burning can be up to 30% during exercises. Therefore, to ensure you’re getting the maximum benefir from your exercises, you should top up with a juice rich in vitamin C in time. Also, the teamwork between carnitine and vitamin C can enable you exercise for longer periods, as it gives you more energy.
If you’re finding it very difficult to lose weight, even though you exercise all the time, try consuming more foods high in vitamin C such as tomatoes, watermelon, papaya, orange, cranberries, spinach, green beans, romaine lettuce, cabbage, green bell pepper, blueberries, mango, red bell pepper, broccoli, etc.
You can start your day tomorrow by taking grapefruit or orange juice in the morning before hitting the road. It’s your body, so take care of it.

Reduce Stress and Burn Fat with Vitamin C- Thomas DeLauer
Vitamin C is just one of the many BASIC vitamins that doesn’t get enough attention, learn more at http://www.ThomasDeLauer.com
We’re always told that you can take vitamin C when you’re sick or when you got a cold or when you’ve got the flu and it’s going to help you fight the illness and get over it quicker, but no one’s ever really looking outside the box and looking at what other uses we can use vitamin C for, at least in the business world for those of us that are living a high-stress life and are trying to balance work, family, health, and all that.
First, let’s take a little look at what vitamin C does and exactly why it can be a benefit to you in this particular case. Before I dive into vitamin C, I have to talk a little bit about cortisol, which I talk about in a lot of my videos. I talk about how cortisol stimulates the release of adrenaline, epinephrine, norepinephrine, all those hormones and those basically neurotransmitters that are going to make you in that fight or flight response. They’re going to make you have to fight for something or run away and basically not be able to focus on the work that really needs to be focused on.
Well, what vitamin C does is it actually blunts the cortisol, or more so, it blunts the effect of cortisol on the body. Simply by taking some vitamin C in a mega dose, your body can fight the cortisol and b in a better position to make executive decisions and to make the right progress in the gym and at home and in the kitchen. When it comes down to psychology and how you feel and how your stress levels are and how you can focus, there’s even been a study out of Germany that took 1,000 test subjects, 500 of them, they were given a placebo, and the other 500 we’re given high doses of vitamin C.
Well, all 1,000 of those participants or those subjects were going into a public speaking arrangement. They were going into a position where they were going to be speaking in front of a lot of people, something that was going to be unnerving and stressful. The test subjects that took the vitamin C had markedly lower serum cortisol levels than the others. Now the other interesting thing is those that took vitamin C also had about a 30% reduction in their heart rate. What this means is that vitamin C had a direct correlation with reducing cortisol and reducing stress.
What does this mean to you and what can you do? Simply put, mega dose some vitamin C. Take 500 milligrams with every meal, and don’t worry about overdosing on it because vitamin C is water-soluble and whatever your body doesn’t use, your kidneys are just going to excrete out. If you can keep a constant flow of vitamin C through the body, you’re going to constantly be reducing that carbon footprint that cortisol is leaving on your body, and let’s face it, as someone that’s working all the time, someone that’s focusing on business, someone that’s trying to juggle all aspects of life, you are constantly stressed, and if you can combat it with a little bit of vitamin C, you’re going to be more focused in the office, able to focus on what needs to be focused on to get the job done and to get paid.
You’re going to have more energy, more energy in the gym, more energy to focus on what needs to be done in the gym. You’re going to feel better and not stressed out so you’re going to make better decisions at home in the kitchen. Most of all, you’re going to have that sense of well-being that’s going to skyrocket you into a new level of success where you feel confident, feel good about yourself, and never having to focus on that multitasking mode where you can’t get the job done.
