How much truth is there to the Linus Pauling heart disease cure/control? For the moment, my favorite website regarding this disease is https://jeffreydachmd.com/heart-disease-vitamin-c-and-linus-pauling2/.

The doctor who owns this website is Jeffrey Dach, MD. What can you tell us about his veracity?

Thanks.

Cool

About the Vitamin C use with medical benefits in the last years have been some meta analysis like this
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5000725/
Who show its really really hard to find benefit in the use of this suplement.
Somme studies show little very little benefit, another one dont show  real benefit.
And the studies that show real benefit the are open label, observational. What im trying to say is we need more studies with better methodological design


And https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=24566474 in this Last review of the literature there isnt enough evidence to recommend the use of vitamin C.
