Normal GULO is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction of D-glucuronolactone with oxygen to L-xylo-hex-3-gulonolactone. This then spontaneously forms Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C). However, without the GULO enzyme, no vitamin C is produced. Other mammals like guinea pigs, bats, and dry-nosed primates have gained the same defect. It seems odd that a deleterious random mutation would become dominant in the human lineage. Is that what happened, or was there a sinister manipulation of the human genome?ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Extraterrestrial Genetic Manipulations73 views0 answers0 votesIf human DNA was corrupted deliberately, what caused the problem in other mammalian species?ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Extraterrestrial Genetic Manipulations83 views0 answers0 votesGiven the recent paper showing a good anticancer effect of both grape seed extract and vitamin C in a mouse model of solid Ehrlich carcinoma, would either or both be a safe and effective addition to our Antiviral Regimen?ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Healing Modalities66 views0 answers0 votesI just saw a review of recent studies showing saffron having equal benefit to prescription antidepressants and with less side effects.

This is especially valuable because astaxanthin has 10 times higher potency than related antioxidants. The supplement contains 15 nutraceuticals: 1,126 mcg Vitamin A (as mixed carotenoids from D. salina providing zeaxanthin, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, beta-carotene, and alpha-carotene); 240 mg Vitamin C; 15 mg Zinc picolinate; 300 mg Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex; 120 mg Bilberry fruit extract; 120 mg Ginkgo leaf extract: 50 mg Grape seed extract; 250 mg Taurine; 200 mg N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine; 50 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid; 10 mg Lutein; 3 mg Zeaxanthin; 4 mg Astaxanthin; 250 mg Citicoline; and 400 mg Beta Glucan.
