After my session today we just went straight at the center of the city where the branch of a big drugstore is located so that I can be able to purchase my Renvela and my Cinacalcet. I also asked my mother to ask for vitamin C because I only have a few left in my bottle. It is an Ascorbic acid but what my mother was able to buy was a "Sodium Ascorbate" which is an non-acidic form of Vitamin C.
My mother took it anyway, the last of the vitamin C supply of that big drugstore. I can just imagine that lots of people just bought the entire supply that now there is no supply of vitamin C at any drugstore that we know of as even the lesser known and generic brands got sold out.
Sodium Ascorbate is only good because it is non-acidic, it could be good for me too but I myself cannot #megadose on these because it is in a sodium form. These will definitely raise my blood pressure because it is sodium and will make me feel thirsty. Maybe I can still take a tablet everyday since it is currently hot and humid here in my place and I sweat a lot which often makes a salt residue on my skin.
Sodium Ascorbate also affects the liver so it is not good to take it in large doses. Still fine for me because vitamin C just stays in my body because I do not produce urine anymore, it just circulates in my body. I just have to get my source everyday because I know that it protects the body's cells against damage from oxygen (oxidation processes).

I also needed vitamin C to help me absorb iron from my food, protect my guts in forming cancer causing nitrosamines when I happen to eat high-nitrate foods like corned beef, makes me feel stronger relatively, helps me sleep, and all that cold ad flu resistance effects as me and my parents and sibling had proven already.
Anyway I will just have to contend with this type of a few tablets of vitamin C in sodium form and I hope that my order online would get delivered the soonest possible time. I also have to think about the rubbing alcohol too because I needed it for my personal cleanliness with my skin since I could not really get up that easily anymore and scoot to the wash area to clean myself which is why I am using rubbing alcohol and tissue for the purpose.
