I’m a physician and recommend it to almost all of my patients

[janlange]

I take 500mg/day based on a recommendation from my dentist years ago. I eat lots of fruits and vegetables and have very good dental hygiene but my gums bled a lot. The vitamin C stopped that. About a year ago I stopped taking it and within a week my gums were bleeding again, just from brushing! Resumed the vitamin C and that all stopped.

Vitamin c safe my life..with high dose and taurine and diet I'm heart failure survivor

[austinfreyrikrw]

It’s always better getting your nutrition from food. And vitamin C is really easy to get, all fresh fruits, and veggies that are not over cooked has it. Plus you get lots of other goodies, phytonutrients, you won’t get from supplements.

[lindaanderson]

Eat plenty of vegetables, like red bell peppers, citrus, etc.

[robertrowan]

I prefer to take mixed berry powders. Better that than tasteless forced strawberries going furry in your fridge.
Maybe there's a case for adding them to overnight oats or other prepared foods to preserve shelf life? Who knows?

[RainTime]

I take Ester-C 500mg, it’s a gentle, less acidic version of Vitamin C, easier on the stomach. I take that in addition to a multivitamin.

[GlobalAdventurer]

I take it because Vitamin C is necessary for Iron to be fully absorbed.

[theresaauck]

I like the chewable as well. I don't take it every day but when I've been around a lot of sick people then I start taking it.

[MrTonyharrell]

Yeah, scurvy. It’s why you always get a lemon wedge with fish, a nod to the past when sailers were vitamin c deficient.

[janetmckeen-peterkin]

I take vita C daily. I do notice healthier gums. When I forget to take for a while, gums start bleeding, and I get deep pockets around my teeth.

[bozellbowman]

❤ how about shortness of Breath What should SOMEONE take to help

[quibaoswrites]

Does natural vitamin Cs work too? For protein synthesis and all?

Things like canyene pepper and African star apple are said to contain lots of vitamin C, can I replace supplements with them?

[roqclimber]

Vitamin C has some antihistamine effect. It's not going to replace Benadryl but it helps me during hay fever season.

[itcaboi]

I mean you said you just piss it out if you take too much so it better to take it than to not.

[Aimercesttous]

How much bit C to take daily? 1000 units?

[whitetiger]

You do take a vitamin C complex... The asorbic acid / vitamin C that you buy at Walmart ...the tablets they are actually made from black mold from corn

[melissabrown]

is there enough of it in a multi vitamin?

[Iwantenglandback]

Tons more vitamin c in the Peel of the lemon 🍋 than in the juice. Put lemon zest on your breakfast cereal with ither fruits.

[StrengthAndConditioning]

Doesn't hurt JIC. Don't take it before you workout or 4 hours after your workout because it can blunt muscle protein synthesis so the current research says. Probably change next week tho who knows 🤷‍♂️
