1. In addition to your question - google Roche and Rumsfeld to see if there is still
a link between them - tamiflu as I remember it. Then check Cheney. There is stuff out there, especially with Rumsfeld, if I remember correctly. You know Rumsfeld, Master of Mt. Misery.

2. Does Roche still make vitamin C?
DSM Nutritional Products appears to now own Roche's former plant in Scotland, which once produced most of the world's supply of C.

4. Maybe Roche is the local distributor of Vitamin C in Brazil?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redoxon says "Redoxon is made by Bayer AG." and has a picture of a bottle with a Bayer logo on it.

It's likely that most vitamin C that is not from a vegetable source like rose hips is actually produced by DSM, and that the name on the container is the brand of a company that takes the raw C, presses the tablets, and puts then in the bottle.
