Scurvy. Yes, it's a pirate disease. And when you watch what's the movies, not Raiders, but the pirate movies that are out Pirates of the Caribbean, half those guys look like they have scurvy the way they have them made up in that movie. Scurvy is painful. It hurts. You hurt all over. Your gums bleed. They're
fragile. If you have those two conditions and you get really pale, you have advanced scurvy until proven otherwise. You know what? It's really cheap, easy to fix. go take lots of vitamin C and within two or three weeks you'll feel amazing. But if you don't know, you don't want to take vitamin C, you want to figure out why you have this
horrible painful condition they keep calling fibromyalgia, stuff like that, get the intraator vitamin panel that we do, please. And we'll get you on lots of vitamin C. Also, we have the first validatable, absorbable, reduced, stable vitamin C ever. It's completely reduced.
It's in a gummy. It's our bars vitamin C. Get on about three a day of that. And because if you're that far along, you need a lot. You probably need five a day of everything. You'll know cuz within a week or two, your symptoms will start to resolve. Really shocking. So, I get I've diagnosed five cases this year, seven
last year, and I can't believe I have five already this year. Probably going to hit 10 or 12 by the end of the year, but I've become a lot more aware of it, cognizant. I just saw another case the other day. She was tripping on having scurvy. She had all the symptoms of it.
So, this is mild scurvy. there is such a thing. So, but I don't know if I want to count it as my 6K. So, usually the ones I I deal with are in agony. So, they think they're dying and they probably are. So, anyway, scurvy exists. Eat an
orange, eat a potato, eat something every day and take your vitamin C. Take extra if you have those symptoms or give us a call. This is Dr. Dan Parser.
