As my sister so elegantly pointed out... I am indeed in need of a hat in my last post. Otherwise, how would you know I was celebrating New Year's in Madison. Cheers
Sorry this is off topic, but I'm trying to get a question answered, and don't have a lot of people to discuss it with.
I've been interested for some time in the effect of ascorbate on drug detoxification (via glutathione production) and prevention of tolerance. Maybe you could help me sort something out?
I know that ascorbate is capable of increasing detoxification and clearance of various drugs. However there's been at least (__ "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=6686637&dopt=Abstract">one study__ suggesting that it may allow certain drugs to be used without danger of dependence or addiction. Is this true, or was the study poorly designed, with the lack of dependance due entirely to more rapid drug clearance?
I'm a person passionate about bridging the gaps between scientist, legislators and the public. I have over 12 years of experience as a microbiologist and medical researcher; another 5 years experience in program management and policy analysis in large non-profit organizations. I draw from my technical knowledge in translational medicine, oncology, toxicology, microbiology, environmental health, and radiation science to reach a diverse audience in academia, industry, non-profit, and international institutions. With my excellent oral and written communication skills, I am seeking career in program management, policy analysis and science communication.
hahahahaha...good job DJ
