Hi Julie,
I take a 3oz shot 3 times a day & will up that after the holidays to 4 times
a day or 4oz 3 times a day. I think it would be better to stretch it out
for a better effect.
I can really tell a difference if I'm running low & back down or miss a few
days. So far I have not been sick once since I started the regime. I hope
we all continue to stay healthy throughout the holidays & beyond.
I need to order more ingredients. I think I will try a different Vit C supplier
even though the last batch worked fine it did not want to easily dissolve.
Are you still pretty close to this?
4 cups distilled water
8 tab (because I use liq Sunflower) Lecithin
1 cup distilled water
6 tab Vit C
1 cup distilled water
6 tab Bob's Redmill sodium bicarbonate
My batches have been consistent every time. Also because I don't have a stove
I make a hot water bath with the microwave (not with anything I'm consuming) to heat
up lecithin & etc. It takes forever so I started mixing the lecithin with the stick blender
in 2 batches & pouring the 1st in the sonicator with the heat on to warm it up while
I'm making the 2nd half. I stir & check temp continuously as to not over heat.
Pour in 2nd half, stir & check temp....blend the Vit C & the sodium bicarb separately
then slowly together. By this time the lecithin is the right temp & I pour the rest
of the mix in & recheck the temp & turn the heater off & the sonicator on.
I continue to monitor the heat & if it's getting too warm I put the whole thing
in the fridge to cool ~ 30 min then continue until done. I have only had to refrigerate
1 time. This method has saved me alot of time. It used to take 2:30 & now ~ 1:15 - 1:30.

Wow, my recipe is quite different than yours.
You use 8 Tablespoons of Lecithin in 4 cups of distilled water.
I use: 12 Tablespoon of lecithin in 4 cups of distilled water.
You use 6 Tablespoons of Vit C in 1 cup of water!!!!! I only use 3.
Are you really putting 6 Tablespoons of Vitamin C Powder in 1 Cup of Distilled Water?
