Preventing Sunburn with Vitamin C

An easy way to prove ascorbate science

One of the best proofs of the power of vitamin C at high levels is using it in high internal doses, along with vitamin E, in lieu of sunscreen.

Here's how we protect ourselves from sunburn on the farm without the skin-cancer-causing sunscreen.

• Drink ascorbic acid dissolved in water all day, staying just under bowel tolerance (make sure a bathroom is convenient in case you overdoo it).

• Take 3 or 4 doses of vitamin E (we are using Solaray Dry E) every few hours through the day. Best to high dose E the day before sun exposure.

Your bowel tolerance for vitamin C will go way up when you are exposed to the sun, so make sure your intake is at a high enough level that it is making your gut a little gassy or gurgly while you're in the sun (it can be "entertaining", but at least you're outdoors).

Robert F. Cathcart III M.D. showed that the amount of vitamin C your bowels will absorb goes up and down based on the oxidative stress you are experiencing (from disease, toxins, radiation, etc.). On a day of high oxidative stress, your body may absorb ten times what it will absorb on a normal day, and it’s the vitamin C that neutralizes the oxidative stress.

When you prove that this method protects you from sunburn, you’re also repeating the results of Cathcart’s clinical work which showed that all disease should be addressed and healed by ramping up the level of ascorbate in the body.

This nutrient-based method of protecting your skin enhances your vitamin D production, whereas sunscreen inhibits vitamin D production. I also think that protecting the skin in this way helps thicken your skin. We need more thick-skinned humans in the Garden. #godsgardenscience

Note: If you do get sunburned, then the same method above will eliminate the pain of the sunburn, prevent blistering, and heal the burn much faster. It's best to use this to prevent the burn, but it also works dramatically on an existing sunburn if you get to it right away.

We like to buy our ascorbic acid (vitamin C) from this family-owned orthomolecular company.

Here’s a link to Cathcart’s paper, which every human should memorize.

Here's the science that we extrapolated from when we tried this method for sunburn protection. It's easy to prove that it works. Diligent intake of vitamin C also protects you from general radiation damage, like cell phones, 5G, airports, household EMF, etc.
