Vitamin C
The ascorbic acid, known as Vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin that enhances normal growth and development and helps your body absorb iron. Your body doesn’t naturally produce this vitamin, so it’s essential to include it in your diet.
You can find it in an orange or a cup of strawberries, red pepper or broccoli, and you’d have the right amount of vitamin C that your body needs. But some adults might tend to exaggerate with additional supplements of vitamin C and scientists say it can be harmful.
The upper limit of vitamin C can reach 2,000 mg a day, and a megadose of vitamin C supplement can cause diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, headache and insomnia. So if you want to make sure you’re loaded with vitamin C but won’t affect you in any way, just try eating two oranges instead of one.
Besides supplements, too many antibiotics can cause nasty side effects. Check what are they here.Â

great articles. very informative
Excellent information! Very helpful to know the impact of these supplements.
I take 10 grams of vitamin C whenever i go out. Thats 10,000 mg. it prevents me from catching the wuhan virus.
I’ve practiced this since March 2020. In the body vitamin C converts to hydrogen peroxide. When a molecule of virus enters my bloodstream it meets a tsunami of hydrogen peroxide and dies.
Wow
Unless very high doses of vit c are taken via IV treatment, u will never achieve the levels that u r casually refering to…. This is regardless of the amount of vitamin C u take orally. When taken orally the levels remain quite low. Stop spreading skewed information.
I take Krill oil (omega 3) and vitamin D. (esp. in winter) Don’t agree on those, the others yes.
