1000 mgs per day is all your body can use,
They rest just get flushed out in your urine. |

I had an energy drink with 300% the amount of vitamin C intake of a daily day. It was intense... I started shaking. :eek: |
I suspect that it was the 'energy' in the drink, and not the vitamin C that was attributable to that effect, honey.... It's an 'energy drink' cuz its got massive doses of herbs or caffeine to jack your ass up. :p |

Well, we're not robots, so there are variances in what people need, also depends on your health as well. |

Thanks Dr. Phil!!! I was just making a general statement to a general question from what I know.
But yes Its always good to increase dosage if you feel a little under the weather or heaven forbid, before a big party night!!! LOL |

your body pisses away whut it doesn't use.
it can only absorbe so much, so if u really want to take alot of Vitamin C, just dont take 4 pills in the monring, take 2 in the morning, then the next 2 at night... space it out... ull be able to process it then and not waste it |

Correct me if I'm wrong,
But from what I understand, too much artificial vitamin C can be bad for you, but you can eat all natural stuff you want. |
vitamin c that is manufactured in a lab is cleaner than any organic source. anything organic can carry impurities.
take artificial calicum and natural calcium for example. natural source calcium often comes from oyster shells. who knows what water the oysters originated from. what impurities were in the water if the oysters came from the ocean? calcium made in a lab is the same calcium and is pure calcium.
the same could be said for herbal remedies. ie. chinese herbal medicine.
i got all this from my father who happens to be a pharmacist for decades and knows what hes talking about when it comes to drugs. :D |
