[BREAKING] Silver Bullet for Deadly Infections?!
Dear Living Well Daily Reader,
Too often, being in the hospital means you’re fighting for your life.
But I’m not just talking about the condition that put you there.
Whether it’s a heart attack, a broken hip, or a stroke, it seems like you have to take your care into your own hands sometimes.
And it’s no different when it comes to sepsis.
This deadly infection steals the lives of loved ones every year… but the sad part is, it’s completely preventable.
But now researchers have discovered a silver bullet for sepsis.
And the best part is, it’s something that’s affordable and readily available.
Vitamin C is proven to reduce colds, fight cancer, and even battle high blood pressure.
Now we know it’s the secret weapon against sepsis, too.
While sepsis is not well-known, it’s one of the leading causes of death for people who enter the hospital. It causes up to 300,000 deaths every year.
Sepsis occurs when bacteria start growing in your blood vessels. That itself is bad, but your body’s response (massive inflammation, which leads to organ failure) is what really kills you.
Medical doctors don’t have much to treat sepsis, because antibiotics are becoming worthless and the infections are becoming smarter.
That is where vitamin C enters the scene.
In a recent study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers found that patients with sepsis (a blood infection) have a much better chance of survival with vitamin C.
For the experiment, scientists split sepsis patients into three groups. One got intravenous vitamin C therapy and the other got a placebo.
At the end, the vitamin C group saw their mortality rate go down by a WHOPPING 46 percent!
This means vitamin C can slash your risk of dying from sepsis in nearly HALF!
The researchers used intravenous vitamin C, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be taking vitamin C every day… especially if you are heading to the hospital.
And if you do find yourself in the hospital, let your doc know that you want to be treated with vitamin C if you develop sepsis. Doing so just might save your life.
P.S. There’s another deadly infection you need to know about before you go to the hospital. Click here to find out what it is and how to protect yourself.
