I have some liver problems and that limit my intake of some "bad" products such chocolate, (too much sugar, burned amino-acid with cancer promoting capacities,...). Copal is a way arround that. I find it useful too in my night work, whicht is somewhat demanding. I have used vitamin C in large quantity for many years, the drawback is that you turn looking underfeed, even if it is not the case. Vitamin C seems to be used faster, so if you have some bacterial problems, you'll feed the bacteria more than yourself, the same is true for cancer: Cancer cells make a better use of vitamin C than ordinary cell do. I think copal is a very complex blend of many molecular species, it is used by cells on extended time, I don't know its chemical pathway, but it may be very complex, too much for most bacterium for example. I don't know, but it may be the same for cancer cells: it didn't fit well with their fast need request. As vitamin C, it gives faster better healing. It don't protect against common cold (vitamin D3 does). I'll give more comments in another message.
