Is Mega-dosing Vitamin C Safe?
Probably the best-known supplement ever is vitamin C and with good reason. This antioxidant serves the body in a multitude of ways. I'm sure you've heard many people saying something similar to this; I've been taking vitamin c every day, and I've never been sick. Is this all hype, is any of this true? I've asked these people, and most say that they are megadosing vitamin C. Is this safe?
Today I'm going to talk about how, perhaps, megadosing Vitamin C could be detrimental to your health.

Yup and can adjust daily dose.
It’s important to note that in normal kidney function people, mega dose vit c does not cause kidney stones directly. It’s the combination of dehydration, eating a high processed diet, lack of B6/magnesium/calcium/k2 to name a few factors. Get your kidney screen first.
Agreed. People tend to jump on trends without looking objectively at the research.
I take 3 grams every meal. And i am not sick. Seoul university professor studies vit C for 40plus years. He tske 13grams to 16grams daily.
Most helpful video I've found ! Hard to find .
Yeah I agree with you. From my test with my body itself, 2000mg per day was about right for me. 4000mg caused diarrhea.
Wow you sure look like Michael Landon...😮😅 loved him🙏 😊
This guy keeps saying "could" or "might" and "that SOME people". He doesn't reference any studies and is too vague with his opinions. I disagree!
What about taking Vitamin C by eating food compared to supplements? What about IV for cancer patients?

Liposomal is different. It won't last till your large intestines which you want it to not just absorb quickly.
Its true. I was mega dosing C because of covid . And it messed me up ! My nerves and muscles... My iron and copper was effected. Ceruloplasm not functioning right. It might be ok during sickness but not too long.

Who told you to take C for ?Covid? The premiere vitamin for boosting immunity to fight virus is/D3. It takes over 5,000 IU for most folks to get close to reach 50ng/mL, a healthy level for most people. C is 0K but not equal to D3.
