This is really interesting. I just happened upon this site. I always thought it was just something odd about me. As a kid I was hospitalized when my grandparents gave me Vit C tablets... I developed pnuemonia like reaction... in just a few days...
Now I stay away from lemons and oranges... and other obvious Vit C mega fruits because I get hives... and then bronchiatis... like symptoms. Sometimes when I'm craving a lemon wedge I know I'll pay for it later with cancors...
I don't mind avoiding fruit... but I can't seem to find any multi-vitimin that doesn't have ascorbic acid... I can get away with taking one... and dealing with hives... but beyond that defeats the purpose of a daily vitimin... any one have any ideas?
