I'm not allergic to stings, but since I've been taking about 10 grams of liposomal C spread throughout the day, I've noticed that wasp stings have almost no effect. Hurts for a few seconds at most, then nothing, not even any swelling.

Liposomal is great and that's a large amount for daily intake. Lipo bypasses bowel tolerance. The only advantage to AA and SA is that bowel tolerance indicates how much you need in a day (or at any moment), and your BT will shoot up before you start feeling symptoms. At 10g a day of lipo, you're not likely to ever feel any symptoms and if you do, you can just double what you take for a while.

I have had the same experience. I live in South Africa. A bee sting sent me to the ER after blacking out. I bought an epipen which I’ve thankfully never had to use. By the time I was stung again, I’d heard about Vitamin C, and had some on hand. 5g in water was all that was needed, for no reaction. I’ve used it many times now, including for a yellow jacket sting. I LOVE Vitamin C.
