Title: Direct application of vitamin C to the lung tissue and respiratory passages by use of an asthma medication-type inhaler or similar inhaler

Description:
SUMMARY  
      My invention is very simple. An asthma medication—type inhaler or similar inhaler will be filled with a solution of vitamin C, in the form of sodium ascorbate, to be applied in measured bursts of super-fine spray directly to the respiratory passages and lungs.  
    
    
     DESCRIPTION  
      My invention is to make an aqueous solution of sodium ascorbate, which has a neutral pH and is the most soluble of all forms of vitamin C and apply it directly to the lungs and respiratory passages by way of an asthma medication—type inhaler or similar inhaler, thereby bipassing the digestive tract and administering a topical application of vitamin C directly to the tissue which most needs it, in the case of smoking damage or respiratory ailments. I would, however, want to patent the inhalable type of all forms of vitamin C, including but not limited to dehydroascorbic acid, D-ascorbic acid, L-ascorbic acid, ascorbic acid, 2,3-didehydro-L-threo-hexano-1,4-lactone, 3-oxo-L-gulofuranolactone, L-threo-hex-2-enonic acid gamma-lactone, L-3-keto-threo-hexuronic acid lactone, L-xylo-ascorbic acid, antiscorbutic vitamin, vitamin C with bioflavonoids, acerola vitamin C, rose hip vitamin C, all mineral ascorbates, and ascorbate and vitamin C metabolites.  
      The drawing page consists of a side view and frontal view of the inhalable vitamin C applicator.  
      I do not have the facilities to do the clinical studies and to package this product myself, and would need to work together with a company which manufactures vitamin products. But I do not want to approach anyone with this until I have the patent in hand.
