Chapter 269 Experts’ Words
In the First Hospital's message group, Director Zhang said to all the doctors and nurses, "Is everyone watching Wei Ping's live broadcast today?"
Everyone was wondering why Dean Zhang asked this question.
Is there any difference here?
A simple question elicited unanimous responses from everyone.
"look in!"
"look in!"
"Doctor Wei speaks very well!"
"Brother Wei is awesome!"
…
A lot of replies came down.
Then Dean Zhang said, "I have a task for everyone here. This is a task for all attending physicians and above."
All the nurses and interns breathed a sigh of relief.
But what is that mission?
Dean Zhang continued, "You need to learn from Wei Ping about the art of livestreaming."
No one quite understood why Dean Yu Zhang did this.
He then added: "Learn how to face patients in the live broadcast room and learn Wei Ping's treatment methods. Our hospital will also hold similar live broadcasts in the future and conduct online consultations as free clinics to serve the public!"
When Dean Zhang said this, everyone finally understood what was going on.
If that's the case, everyone said, "Got it!"
"I didn't want to take up everyone's time, but this could be the next big thing for our hospital. Although Wei Ping is our hospital's boss and we've benefited greatly from him, our responsibilities also grow. Let's give back to society. Okay, that's all I have to say. Everyone, go to bed early after you've finished organizing."
As for Wei Ping, he didn't read the message in the group. He was paying attention to the next question at the moment.
"I heard that taking vitamin C can prevent children from catching a cold. Is this true?"
When Wei Ping saw this, he almost fainted.
Which expert said that taking vitamin C can prevent colds?
That’s the merchant’s water army!
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that there is no scientific evidence and no significant research to show that vitamin C can prevent or treat colds.
At this time, someone asked: "But why do so many people still say that it works?"
"This is a question of probability. Researchers from the non-profit organization Cochrane Collaboration conducted statistics and analysis on more than 30 studies involving 11,000 people and concluded:
For ordinary people, taking vitamin C to prevent and treat colds has no effect, and taking large amounts of vitamin C to prevent and treat colds is completely unnecessary."
"The average person's daily diet provides sufficient vitamin C without the need for supplements. Our ancestors once said, 'Too much is as bad as too little.' Everything has a limit."
Some people are too foolish.
Just believe what others say, not what doctors say.
Some advertisements are also very irresponsible.
"Then let's talk about the hazards."
"First, you should not stop taking vitamin C suddenly after taking it in large quantities. If you do, it can cause withdrawal symptoms, such as bleeding gums and other scurvy reactions."
"Secondly, taking large amounts of vitamin C can cause folic acid deficiency, as vitamin C promotes the excretion of folic acid."
"Third, long-term, high-dose vitamin C use can lead to serious reactions, including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, stomach acid, and even increased pain from stomach ulcers or bleeding!"
"Fifth, taking large doses of vitamin C can cause urinary stones"
"Sixth, for children with G6PD enzyme deficiency, commonly known as favism, vitamin C can induce hemolysis. That's a life-threatening condition!"
When Wei Ping said this, everyone fell silent.
Because this is no joke.
"I believe in Doctor Three Punches!"
"I believe him, but everything still has to be done according to the doctor's instructions. Only take it when you're truly deficient. You can't take it on your own."
"Yes, I said the same thing to the person above."
"If it weren't for Doctor Three Punches, I would do the same."
“You really can’t find everything on the Internet.”
"Especially a certain search, which started with a search for terminal illness."
"Everything depends on what the doctor says."
…
After seeing these messages, Wei Ping felt relieved.
As long as it can help everyone live a good and healthy life, then what he does is worthwhile.
"Let me give you an example. This is a real case reported in the literature. I hope it can attract your attention."
A 55-year-old Caucasian woman from abroad suffered acute kidney injury and renal hyperoxaluria due to excessive vitamin C in her body. After three months of treatment, she was diagnosed with end-stage renal disease and had to rely on continuous hemodialysis to survive.
After the patient underwent blood tests and pathological examinations, the doctor speculated that the cause of her acute renal failure was related to vitamin C poisoning.
It was later discovered that the patient had also taken a large amount of vitamin C in a short period of time, which ultimately led to her acute renal failure. If she hadn't taken so much vitamin C, perhaps this situation wouldn't have occurred, considering how painful dialysis is and how it significantly impacts quality of life.
"However, some diseases require vitamin C supplementation, such as oral diseases. If children or pregnant women often have bleeding gums, it means that they are lacking vitamin C and they can take appropriate vitamin C supplements.
Also, bruises are difficult to remove. If a child's skin is very sensitive, bruises will appear when touched and are difficult to remove. This indicates that the child's body lacks vitamin C, which can be supplemented.
Furthermore, if you have a wound, vitamin C has a very good effect on wound healing, so you can supplement it in moderation at this time."
"So is there a difference between good and bad vitamin C? Why is it so expensive in some places?"
"The manufacturing process of vitamin C is not difficult. Regardless of the price, the ingredients are the same. There is no essential difference between a bottle of vitamin C sold at a pharmacy for two yuan and a bottle of a well-known brand sold online for hundreds of yuan."
Wei Ping's words directly refreshed people's cognition.
Unexpectedly, there is not much difference between the two.
"In fact, vitamin C, which costs only a few yuan a bottle, is more suitable for treatment because it is a medicine. Medicines need to undergo strict testing and must meet the needs of treatment before they can be approved. Those that cost hundreds of yuan are health supplements. Health supplements are essentially food. As long as they can meet food safety requirements, the inspection standards will be relatively relaxed. This applies not only to vitamin C, but also to vitamin B."
Wei Ping's words may harm the interests of some people, but he will still say them. People who tell the truth often offend others, but Wei Ping doesn't care.
He doesn't rely on these people to make a living, so the key is to popularize this knowledge among the citizens, right?
Wei Ping said a lot today, and now the number of people online has reached 300 million.
That has broken the records of many stars.
