A Therapeutic Level of Vitamin C Supplementation as Employed by F .R.
Klenner, M.D. (from "The Significance of High Daily Intake of Ascorbic
Acid in Preventive Medicine," p. 51-59, Physician's Handbook on
Orthomolecular Medicine, Third Edition, Roger Williams, PhD, ed.)

A Working Summation of Dr. Klenner's Formula:
350 mg Vitamin C per kg body weight per day (350 mg./kg./day)

These quantities may seem high; Klenner actually used as much as four
times as much, typically by injection.  These are moderate oral doses.
You may also give twice as many doses, with half as much "C" per
dose.  Injections of C may be arranged with your physician.

Vitamin C may be given as liquid, powder, tablet or chewable tablet. 
Infants often prefer finely powdered, naturally sweetened chewable
tablets, which may be crushed between two spoons. You may make your
own liquid vitamin C by daily dissolving C powder in a small (1 ounce)
dropper bottle and adding a sweetener if necessary.  Dr. Klenner of
course recommended daily preventive doses, which might be about 1/6 of
the above therapeutic amount, divided 3 times daily.

Persons with sensitivity to citrus fruits, tomatoes or cranberries may
feel more comfortable taking vitamin C as ascorbate, a non-acidic
vitamin C. Calcium ascorbate is most frequently chosen and sodium
ascorbate the least, except for injection. Transition down to a
maintenance level (about 60 mg/kg/day) should be made gradually, over
a period of a week or two. A kilogram is 2.2 pounds.
