Vitamin C is an important nutrient that most other mammals are able to produce. When there is trouble in the body, those mammals begin to produce mega-doses of vitamin C and end the trouble immediately. These mammals don’t get sick as easily as people do. Guinea pigs are one of the other few mammals that don’t produce their own vitamin C. Thus, guinea pigs are used for research because we can easily make them sick with the same things that make us sick. It is easy to conclude from this that vitamin C is an extremely important nutrient.
We will delve into how identifying and correcting your vitamin C deficiency can:

The tree of dis-ease depicts a concept that addressed various issues that the body can experience. First, let’s consider an actual tree. If we want to allow the sun to shine through but a tree is blocking it, what would we do? We could prune the tree to allow more sun to get through while preserving the tree. Keep in mind that pruning has to be repeated to keep the desired effect. Or, we could cut down the tree destroying the roots so the tree can never grow again.
Think of the tree of dis-ease as the tree that does not allow vibrant, optimum health to shine through. Similarly, we have two options. We can prune and re-prune the tree with medicines and procedures allowing some measure of health to shine through. This is the approach of traditional health. Traditional health names the branches and leaves on the tree of dis-ease and then manages them with various pruning protocols.
