Obesity is a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

You can calculate your BMI index BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

Uric acid, the form of ions and salts is a by product of chemical after the body breaks down purines, the substance is found in many foods, including Asparagus, Bacon, Beef, Bluefish, Bouillon, Calf tongue, Carp, Cauliflower, Chicken, Chicken soup, Codfish, Crab, Duck, Goose, etc.. High levels of uric acid in blood serum can be harmful, leading to gout and forming of kidney stones.


The association of Obesity with Increased Uric Acid
1. Acccording to the study of "Serum uric acid as an obesity-related indicator in early adolescence" by Oyama C, Takahashi T, Oyamada M, Oyamada T, Ohno T, Miyashita M, Saito S, Komatsu K, Takashina K, Takada G. (Source from Department of Pediatrics, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan. Tohoku J Exp Med. 2006 Jul;209(3):257-62), posted in PubMed, researchers found that In general, children are evaluated as obesity, when POW is equal to or more than 20% (>or= 20%). Serum uric acid levels are positively correlated with obesity-related indicators, BMI and POW, in both boys and girls. Serum uric acid levels of the subjects with high POW (>or= 20%) are significantly higher than those of the subjects with low POW (< 20%) in both boys and girls. These results suggest that serum uric acid levels are significantly increased with obesity and could be used as one of obesity-related indicators even in early adolescence.

2. In an abstract of study of "Recent trends of hyperuricemia and obesity in Japanese male adolescents, 1991 through 2002" by Ogura T, Matsuura K, Matsumoto Y, Mimura Y, Kishida M, Otsuka F, Tobe K. (Source from Health and Medical Center, Okayama University, Okayama, Japan. Metabolism. 2004 Apr;53(4):448-53), posted in PubMed, researchers found rhat Hyperuricemia was related to the presence of other risk factors, including hypercholesterolemia, liver function abnormality, and hypertension. The frequencies of such abnormalities were higher than euuricemic subjects and this trend was notable in the most recent students enrolled from 1999 through 2002. Hyperuricemia was even found in the group of non-obese male adolescents. Taking into consideration that hyperuricemia is associated with a high prevalence of lifestyle-related diseases in adults, it is of great importance to prevent hyperuricemia at the early stage in Japanese adolescents.

3. In a study of "[Uric acid nephrolithiasis]", [Article in French], by Dussol B.(Source from Centre de néphrologie et de transplantation rénale, hôpital de la Conception, 13385 Marseille Cedex 05. bertrand.dussol@ap-hm, Rev Prat. 2011 Mar;61(3):389-92), posted in PubMed, researcher indicated that Its frequency will increase in the next decades because of the ageing and the increasing prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The pathophysiologic defect is an excessively acidic urine pH rather than hyperuricosuria. Undissociated uric acid is poorly soluble in acidic urines (pH < 5.5) but solubility increases when sodium urate forms at higher pH. Insulin resistance may contribute to the development of acidic urine because of higher net acid excretion. Because uric acid kidney stones are radiolucent, diagnosis is based on echography and tomodensitometry. Medical management strategies focus primarily on alkali treatment and/or decreasing hyper-uricosuria.

4. According to a study of "Uric acid nephrolithiasis" by Liebman SE, Taylor JG, Bushinsky DA. (Source from University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Nephrology Division, Strong Memorial Hospital, Rochester, NY 14642, USA. scott_liebman@urmc.rochester.edu, Curr Rheumatol Rep. 2007 Jun;9(3):251-7.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Uric acidnephrolithiasis is typically found in individuals with a low urine pH and a normal concentration of urinary uric acid. Patients with a history of gout are at greater risk of forming uric acid stones, as are patients with obesity, diabetes, or the complete metabolic syndrome. The unifying renal tubular abnormality of these disorders appears to be the excretion of abnormally acidic urine. This article focuses on the relationship of these disorders to the development of uric acid stones.

5. According to a study of "Relation of uric acid with components of metabolic syndrome before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in morbidly obese subjects" by Serpa Neto A, Rossi FM, Valle LG, Teixeira GK, Rossi M. (Source from Division of Clinical and Surgical Treatment of Obesity, Faculdade de Medicina do ABC, Santo André, SP, Brazil. aryserpa@terra.com.br, Arq Bras Endocrinol Metabol. 2011 Feb;55(1):38-45.), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated in abstract that Concentrations of uric acid were associated with the prevalence of metabolic abnormalities in this sample of morbidly obese patients. Also, weight loss after RYGBP can reduce uric acid levels and the prevalence of hyperuricemia.

Treatments of Obesity and Increased Uric Acid
1. According to the abstract of the study of "Obesity and urolithiasis" by Asplin JR. (Source from Litholink Corporation, Chicago, IL 60612, USA. jasplin@litholink.com, Adv Chronic Kidney Dis. 2009 Jan;16(1):11-20), posted in PubMed, researchers stated that Obesity can increase stone risk in multiple ways. Excess nutritional intake increases traffic of lithogenic substances such as calcium, oxalate, and uric acid. Metabolic syndrome, commonly associated withobesity, alters renal acid-base metabolism, resulting in a lower urine pH andincreased risk of uric acid stone disease......, Certainly, the many health risks ofobesity, including urolithiasis, necessitate weight loss, but recognition of the potential complications of such therapies is required to prevent induction of new and equally severe medical problems. The optimal approach to weight control that minimizes stone risk needs to be determined.

2. In a study of "Body size and 24-hour urine composition" by Taylor EN, Curhan GC. (Source from Renal Division and Channing Laboratory, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA. entaylor@partners.org, Am J Kidney Dis. 2006 Dec;48(6):905-15), posted in PubMed, researchers filed the conclusion of Positive associations between BMI and urinary calcium excretion likely are due to differences in animal protein and sodium intake. The greater incidence of kidney stones in the obese may be due to an increase in uric acid nephrolithiasis.

3. In abstract of the study of "Benefits of sustained moderate weight loss inobesity" by Pasanisi F, Contaldo F, de Simone G, Mancini M. (Source from Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Federico II University, Naples, Italy. pasanisi@unina.itm Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis. 2001 Dec;11(6):401-6.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that a large number of obese patients may be sensitive to a modest weight loss even without the achievement of ideal body weight. Sustained moderate weight loss by itself is definitely beneficial in obesity(especially "malignant" and "morbid" obesity), but also in diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, cardiorespiratory diseases and other chronic degenerative diseases associated with any degree of excess body fat.

Obesity is a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

You can calculate your BMI index BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

Overweight or obese is aleady proven to be associated with an increased risk for the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, etc. In the study of the effect of a low calorie diet in combination with oral supplementation by vitamins, minerals, probiotics and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG, 125-180 IUs) on the body composition, lipid profile and CD34-positive cells in circulation. During this dieting program, the following parameters were assessed weekly for all participants: fat free mass, body fat, BMI, extracellular/intracellular water, total body water and basal metabolic rate. For part of participants blood chemistry parameters and circulating CD34-positive cells were determined before and after dieting. The data indicated that the treatments not only reduced body fat mass and total mass but also improved the lipid profile. The changes in body composition correlated with the level of lipoproteins responsible for the increased cardiovascular risk factors. These changes in body composition and lipid profile parameters coincided with the improvement of circulatory progenitor cell numbers(1)

Testosterone is a male hormone, besides promoting libido, it has other important functions such as maintain muscle mass and forming bone, and regulating heart muscle and cholesterol. It also helps to improve the oxygen levels throughout the body as well as controlling blood glucose and strengthening the immune system. In this article, we will discuss what causes low levels of testosterone.

1. Aging
As we mentioned in the other articles, human aging is the biological and pathological processes that vary from person to person and that are controllable to some degree. Starting at age 40, levels of testosterone start to diminish, the levels of the by-product prolactin of testosterone of men increases, stimulating the production of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase that causes the conversion of testosterone to gihydro-testosterones DHT thus triggering low levels of testosterone.

2. DHEA deficiency
DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is a substance made by the adrenal gland. It is the precursor of the sex steroids estrogen and testosterone. DHEA has some male hormone effects and deficiency of DHEA contributes to fatigue, poor concentration and diminished overall body functions.

3. Zinc
Zinc is a natural aromatase enzyme inhibitor. It helps to block the conversion of testosterone into excess estrogen. Inadequate zinc levels block the pituitary gland from releasing lutein and follicle stimulation of hormone which stimulates the production of testosterone.

4. Aromatase
Aromatase is an enzyme of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, whose function is to aromatize androgen and produce estrogen. As men age they produce greater amounts of aromatase enzymes that cause the conversion of testosterone into estrogen resulting in male hormone deficiency.

5. Liver disease
Damage to liver causes extra estrogen and sex-hormone binding globulin resulting in lower levels of testosterone.

6. Frequent sexual activity
Normal sexual activity helps to improve the yang qi in the kidney according to Chinese herbalists(that is the reason why most kings in Chinese history have some sources of sexual dysfunction). Frequent sexual activity( more than once a day and every day) will cause the depletion of yang qi resulting in low levels of testosterone, sexual dysfunction and libido in the future days.

                         Moronic acid 

Moronic acid is a phytochemincal in the subclass of Triterpenoid, belonging to the group of Terpenes found in extracted from Rhus javanica, Mistletoe, etc.

Health Benefits
1. HIV maturation inhibitor
In the study of triterpene derivatives as potent anti-HIV agents, different C-3 conformationally restricted betulinic acid (BA, 1) derivatives were designed and synthesized in order to explore the conformational space of the C-3 pharmacophore. 3-O-Monomethylsuccinyl-betulinic acid (MSB) analogues were also designed to better understand the contribution of the C-3' dimethyl group of bevirimat (2), the first-in-class HIV maturation inhibitor, which is currently in phase IIb clinical trials. In addition, another triterpene skeleton, moronic acid (MA, 3), was also employed to study the influence of the backbone and the C-3 modification toward the anti-HIV activity of this compound class, may lead to led to the design and synthesis of compound 12 (EC(50): 0.0006 microM), which displayed slightly better activity than 2 as a HIV-1 maturation inhibitor, according to " Anti-AIDS agents 81. Design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationship study of betulinic acid and moronic acid derivatives as potent HIV maturation inhibitors" by Qian K, Kuo RY, Chen CH, Huang L, Morris-Natschke SL, Lee KH.(1)

2. Anti- Epstein-Barr virus
In the investigation of moronic acid, found in galls of Rhus chinensis and Brazilian propolis, at 10microM inhibits the expression of Rta, Zta, and an EBV early protein, EA-D, after lytic induction with sodium butyrate, found that moronic acids inhibits the capacity of Rta to activate a promoter that contains an Rta-response element, indicating that moronic acid interferes with the function of Rta. On the other hand, moronic acid does not appear to influence with the transactivation function of Zta. Therefore, the lack of expression of Zta and EA-D after moronic acid treatment is attributable to the inhibition of the transactivation functions of Rta. Because the expression of Zta, EA-D and many EBV lytic genes depends on Rta, the treatment of P3HR1 cells with moronic acid substantially reduces the numbers of EBV particles produced by the cells after lytic induction, according to "Inhibition of the Epstein-Barr virus lytic cycle by moronic acid" by Chang FR, Hsieh YC, Chang YF, Lee KH, Wu YC, Chang LK.(2)

3. Anti fungal effects
In the determination of The effect of compound isolated from ethanol extract from Xyris pteygoblephara aerial parts against five microorganism strains, by the microdilution and agar diffusion methods, indicated that assay of 1 (100 microg/disc) by the agar diffusion method against clinical isolates of the dermatophytes Epidermophyton floccosum (inhibition zone, mm+/-s.d.: 4.5+/-0.8), Trichophyton mentagrophytes (4.8+/-0.4) and Trichophyton rubrum (10.2+/-0.8) revealed similar inhibition zones to the positive control amphotericin B (32 microg/disc; 5.0+/-0.2; 5.0+/-0.6 and 8.8+/-1.2, respectively), according to "Dihydroisocoumarin from Xyris pterygoblephara active against dermatophyte fungi" by Guimarães KG, de Souza Filho JD, Dos Mares-Guia TR, Braga FC.(3)

4. Cytotoxic activity
In the isolation of the cytotoxic compound moronic acid (1) and the new tetracyclic triterpene 3,4-seco-olean-18-ene-3,28-dioic acid (2), from the aerial parts of the medicinal plant Phoradendron reichenbachianum (mistletoe, Loranthaceae) through a bioassay-guided fractionation, indicated that the structures were elucidated on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence, according to "Cytotoxic activity of moronic acid and identification of the new triterpene 3,4-seco-olean-18-ene-3,28-dioic acid from Phoradendron reichenbachianum`by Rios MY, Salina D, Villarreal ML.(4)

5. Antimicrobial activity
In the isolation of the active factor C30H46O3 of the Root bark extract of the East African medicinal plant Ozoroa mucronata showed antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, according to "Moronic acid, a simple triterpenoid keto acid with antimicrobial activity isolated from Ozoroa mucronata" by Hostettmann-Kaldas M, Nakanishi K.(5)

6. Anti-herpes simplex virus
In the study of purification two major anti-HSV compounds, moronic acid and betulonic acid, from the herbal extract by extraction with ethyl acetate at pH 10 followed by chromatographic separations and examined their anti-HSV activity in vitro and in vivo, found that Moronic acid suppressed virus yields in the brain more efficiently than those in the skin. This was consistent with the prolongation of mean survival times. Thus, moronic acid was purified as a major anti-HSV compound from the herbal extract of Rhus javanica. Mode of the anti-HSV activity was different from that of ACV, according to "Anti-herpes simplex virus activity of moronic acid purified from Rhus javanica in vitro and in vivo" by Kurokawa M, Basnet P, Ohsugi M, Hozumi T, Kadota S, Namba T, Kawana T, Shiraki K.(6)

The smoothie for prevention and treatment of Lactation failure
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 cup alfalfa and barley tea(make from 1 gram of dried affalfa and 1 gram of  dried barley leaf)
1 1/2 cups cooked corn

1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for treatment of Malarial nephropathy  has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Lactation failure or deficiency is a condition of not producing enough milk cause of lactation insufficient or fails completely due to insufficient glandular development of the breast. According to the Lady Hardinge Medical College, relactation is possible in most of the mothers without the help of lactagogues, through educating and motivating the mother for exclusive breastfeeding during first 4-6 months, a strong professional support by a health worker is needed to overcome the initial problems during relactation(1).

Alfalfa is a flowering plant in the genus Medicago, belonging to the family Fabaceae, It has been cultivated all over the world as hay for cattle feeding. The leaves, sprouts, and seeds to make medicine has been used in traditional medicine over thousands of year to treat high cholesterol, asthma, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, enhance digestive system, bleeding disorder, kidney and urinary tract infection, etc,.. In animal model, feeding alfalfa could lead to greater milk production efficiency in early lactation(3) by stimulating much greater feed intake in supported greater milk production(4).
Barley, a major cereal grain is now grown in temperate climates globally for commercial profits because of its potential health effects. According to the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, feeding live stock with barley is associated to increase greater milk production(3).

Corn is a variety of maize with a high sugar content and prepared as a vegetable. It is a tall plant grass that has large ears with many seeds or kernels. According to the Transport and Resources, Ellinbank in diary cow study, corn grain can increase milk production even at similar metabolizable energy intakes, and that it does not matter whether these supplements are fed(5).
Dr. Kargar S and colleagues at the joint study led by Isfahan University of Technology, in comparison of barley-based (BBD) or corn-based diets (CBD) found that replacing barley grain for corn grain in oil-supplemented diets did not influence feeding patterns and milk yield(6).

The smoothie of Cooked Corn and Alfalfa and Barley tea may hold a key in further studies in production of effective natural ingredients for prevention and treatment of any type of Membranous glomerulonephritis without inducing adverse effects.

Women who are at increased risk of any of Lactation failure, due to family history, obesity... should drink at least one cup daily. Women with Lactation failure, should drink no more than 4 servings daily, depending to the digestive toleration.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovascular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women.
Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasingaltered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).

The prevention and management


Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is unpreventable in Western medicine. Early diagnosis and treatment may reduce risk of its complications, including infertility, metabolic syndrome, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke, etc.

Although PCOS cannot be completely avoided, strengthening immunity has shown a significant reduction of chronic inflammatory diseases(266)(267)(268).



The Immunity Boosting Minerals

Recent studies showed that deficiencies of zinc, iron, copper, and selenium lower resistance to disease either due to impaired immune response or faulty white blood cells' function(421)
1. Magnesium
The mineral, magnesium plays a key role in the immune response, by acting as a co-factor for immunoglobulin synthesis(422) that significantly increases for both IgA and IgG, the antibody molecules that protect our body against bacterial and viral infections(423) and the lining of the respiratory passages, gastrointestinal andgenitourinary tract(423).
The mineral also found to increase neutrophil function and enzyme peroxidase activity and reduce the incidence of health disorders by boosting immunity(424), including chronic inflammatory disease(425)(426). Low serum magnesium (Mg) is often associated with incidences of insulin resistance (IR), cardiovascular problems, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and other components of metabolic syndrome(428) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)(427).

2. Selenium
Selenium, a trace mineral plays an important and indirect role as an antioxidant(429)(430) by fulfilling its function as a necessary constituent of glutathione peroxidase(431)(432) and in production of glutathione(432), that inhibits the damage caused by oxidation of free radical hydrogen peroxide(433).
Extensively epidemiological studies suggested that selenium also benefits to health aspects, including anti cancers(434)(435), lowering cholesterol(436)(438), hypertension(439)(440), treating heart disease(427)(438), boosting immunity(441)(442) against microbial invasion(443)(444) and anti chronic inflammatory disease(445)(446).

3. Zinc
Zinc besides is an important mineral in boosting immune system activity(447)(449). Its nano-structure zinc(II) coordination compounds, has been used in zinc therapy to treat candida overgrowth(449) by promoting metallothionein (MT)(found in high concentration in intestinal mucosa)synthesis(450) through its anti inflammatory activity(451), including chronic inflammation(453)(454) via immune modulatory effects(452)(453)(454).

4. Manganese
Manganese is an essential trace nutrient in all forms of life. It is well known for its role in helping the body to maintain healthy skin(455)(456) and bone structure(457)(458), but also acts as cofactors for a number of enzymes(459) in higher organisms, where they are essential in iexhibting its antioxidant effects against free radicals(450)(451). Recent studies suggested that manganese also benefits in controlling bood glucose(452)(453), alleviating neuro symptoms such as anxiety, and depression(454) and treatment of high cholesterol levels(456), hypertension(455), infertility(457), cardiomyopathy(458), reduced oxidative stress, amyloid deposition, and memory(459) and boosting immune system anti microbial infections and inflammation(460).
In larger amounts, manganese can be poisoning to neurological damage(451)(462).


5. Iron
A mineral plays a vital role for production of hemoglobin(463)(464)utilised by the body for oxygen transport and energy production(467), for maintaining healthy bones(465) and neurotransmission(466), synthesizing of some hormones and connective tissue(467)(468)(469) and maintaining heart health(470). Deficiency of iron causes low level of hemoglobin, nervous tension((473)(474)), cognitive dysfunction(471)(476), heart disorders(472)(475), heavy menstrual bleeding(479)(480), iron deficiency anemia, etc.,.. Recent studies suggested that trace mineral iron improves immunity(481)(482) fighting against microbial infection(481) and inflammatory disease(483)(484), including certain types of chronic inflammatory diseases(486)(485) due to low levels of hemoglobin impaired cell-mediated immune response and bacterial activity of leukocytes(421).

3. Copper
Copper is vital in maintaining the production of antibodies(487)(488), white blood cells(489)(490), antioxidant enzymes(491)(492), for increasing the immune function in fighting against infection(487)(488) and inflammation(493)(494), including certain chronic inflammatory diseases(495)(496). The mineral also acts as a modulator of neuronal transmission(497), regulates production of certain hormones(498). Deficiency of copper may cause metabolic liver disease(502), copper deficiency anemia(503),....Deficiency and excess of copper levels can induce infertile(499), low libido and sexual issues(500), low quality sperm production(499)(500), disrupted nervous function(501), etc.,...

Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin, found in fresh fruits, berries and green vegetables. It is best known for its free radical scavengers activity and regenerating oxidized vitamin E for immune support.

Vitamin C deficiency and incidence of obesity
Vitamin C and other nutrients deficiency not only are associated to the risk of Obesity(807) but also enhances the risk of lipids, inflammation and insulin resistance(808). According to the research team at Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro, there is an associated link between Obesity and Zinc and vitamins A and C concentration in women from rural Mexico, in a fasting blood sample analysis (809).
Although genetic susceptibility to obesity is associated with gene polymorphisms affecting biochemical pathways which also impacted by specific foods and nutrients. According to Dr. Johnston CS., vitamin C depletion is associated to positively related to body mass, individuals with adequate vitamin C status oxidize 30% more fat during a moderate exercise bout than individuals with low vitamin Cstatus(810)

Vitamin C, the protective effect against obesity
Endothelial dysfunction has found to be associated to the incidence of obesity(811). The study of 76 healthy subjects (50 men and 26 women aged 21-45 years) obese subject, showed a positive effect of vitamin Cand indomethacin in reduced oxidative stress contributed to endothelial dysfunction in human obesity(812).
In the evaluation of the potential inhibitory activity on α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase of Citrus spp. fruits of Spanish origin, grapefruit, containing higher contents of phytochemicals, vitamin C, is found to have a great value for nutrition and treatment of diet-related diseases(813).
L-Ascorbic acid, in the study of whether the vitamin would facilitate the anti-obesity effects of chitosan and psyllium husk in vivo, indicated that addition of vitamin C in diet influences the reduction in body weight gain and food efficiency ratio, and increases in total fecal weight and fecal fat excretion in guinea pigs fed a high-fat diet(814).

Taking altogether, deficiency of vitamin C and other nutrients are associated to increase risk of obese incidence. Vitamin C may be effective in induced weight loss for obese subjects due to its positive interaction in inhibiting oxidative stress causes of endothelial dysfunction. Daily ingestion of high-dose vitamin C may be considered safe, but in rare incidence, overdoses in a prolonged period of time, may cause intra-renal oxalate crystal deposition, a fatal nephrotoxicity(815)(816).
