Re:Why can’t we cure the common cold? by hennsen on Sunday October 22, 2017 @08:26AM (#15526503)
The yale article doesn't mention the exact doses for which it has been tested, only once it says "high", but in the other experiments just says "supplements" - so it's unclear what exactly has been found out about exactly the doses I wrote about.

The other talks about 1g daily as prevention. I talk about 3x1g as treatment when symptoms start to appear until they are gone.

Different things.

And again, I don't say my own experience is a scientificly proven thing working generally, just a personal report and maybe a thing worth trying for the curious instead of throwing a lot of bucks in other treatments.

I think theres a lot of (financial) interest in suppressing that the thing I wrote about works for more than just me - and there's not much to be gained for me personally if writing about this will help others too... so, what's your motivation trying to supress me in reporting my experience?

Don't bother. The history repeats. There was the same thing with vitamin C and cancer with everybody citing Moertel's studies that debunked the protocol and it just happened that something people reiterated for more then 30 years got debunked itself:
