And I'm a living example disproving your basic science. Some days I can get by with 2 grams, some other days I need up to 10 grams to shut symptoms.
If it was a placebo, why would I need varying doses to suppress symptoms and why homeopathy didn't work as a placebo ?
Then explains me why vit C works better than regular medicine for my allergies (no symptom at all with vit C but they are just reduced by half with antihistamines).
Yes, because it's proven basic science.
