USDA finds guinea pigs are more valuable than humans

**********I personally take one heaping teaspoon FOUR to FIVE TIMES daily of the BioEn’r-G’y C…..This RDA Dr Gordon is speaking of is totally WRONG.  My intake of this C is 4000 mg, 5 times daily.  For those of us with Chronic Illness, like Lyme disease and Cancers, taking this amount is a MUST, IMHO.  I can feel it when I cut down.  Of course, you will need to work up to the dosing I do, so that your bowels can reach tolerance, but will notice the difference in your health and especially allergies quickly.  I have Tom Levy MD’s book Curing the Incurable and it is an excellent read.  It truly helps you to connect the dots that the government doesn’t want you to connect.  I totally agree with Dr Gordon, we need to be ready to lobby to get equal rights with guinea pigs. Are we not already guinea pigs with the toxic drugs they force upon us??
Excerpt:
USDA finds guinea pigs are more valuable than humans so they set their RDA of Vit C at 10-25 mg per KGM so that means if humans were as valuable they would have an RDA of  820 to 2000 mg a day instead of the current 75  mg for women and 90 for men.

If we get this new health care plan let’s plan to lobby for us to get equal rights with guinea pigs. 

This higher level of vitamin C going in all humans would save billions each year in needless healthcare costs. See Tom Levy MD’s book CURING THE INCURABLE; you need a copy in your office today. The 1200 references make your recommending BioEn’R-G’y C at one slightly heaping tsp no less than twice a day (providing 8 grams a day) something that there is a reference for in this useful compendium of vitamin C research papers by him.

(OMNS, Feb 4, 2010) The US RDA for vitamin C for humans is only 10% of the government’s vitamin C standards for Guinea pigs.

Wait a minute; that cannot possibly be true.

Can it?

The US Department of Agriculture states that “the Guinea pig’s vitamin C requirement is 10-15 mg per day under normal conditions and 15-25 mg per day if pregnant, lactating, or growing.” (1)

Well, that sounds reasonable. But how much is that compared to humans?

An adult guinea pig weighs about one kilogram (2.2 pounds). Guinea pigs therefore need between 10 and 25 milligrams of C per kilogram.
