VIT C is a miracle!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kärnfysikern]

its hard to say anything without knowing the size of the spoon. 5 grams is 5ml of powder. Try to spread it out more or lower the dosage a bit until the dihareea stops

QUESTION: Iron+ vitC = rust

so thats why Johan said not to take huge ass amounts of iron with it. So, what about other metal? Copper, vanadyle, chromium, etc. I take the last to in significant quantity, so should i not supp with C in high dose for fear of rust?

and yes i have entertained the idea of ditching the vanadyle and chromium for the vit c as insulin sensitizers.

[Kärnfysikern]

nah I dont endorse iron supplements at the same time as vitamin c because vitamin c greatly increases absorbtion of iron. The whole rust thing seems to far fetched to me.
Iron with lots of vitamin c can reach to high levels. In some people even dangerous levels. There is realy no reason for a regular man that eats healthy to supplement with iron imo. Thats one of those things you dont want to get to much of since the body has no way to get rid of excess iron.

I dont know of any adverse reaction from using plenty of vitamin c along with other minerals.
I am defenetly no fan of vanadyle sulphate. If I remember right its weakly linked to cancer and have almost no benifits. The slin sensitivity can be achived by other means.
But vitamin c + chromium I cant think of anything bad happening. Copper can be good since if I dont remember wrong vitamin c increases excretion of copper a bit.
Offcourse copper is also one of those metalls you should be carefull about when supplementing. Especialy if you have copper pipes in your home.

[Kärnfysikern]

If you supplement heavily with zink you can throw in some copper. Otherwise the ammount in a good multivitamin is good. Both to much and to little copper supress the imune system. But zink and copper doesnt like eachother

Copper helps protect the body against bacterial infections while zink protects against viral.

Johan...ur the shit dude! thanx 4 pointin me to this thread....lots of useful info here.

[savax]

I respect what everyone is saying and your knowledge, but I honestly trust those articles where research was performed over personal testimony.. If the FDA says that you shouldn't exceed too much Vit C, i would probably follow their recs until more research is done.

well there is NO known toxic dosage of vitamin c and studies that show the benifits of high dosage

The FDA also say we shouldnt inject 500mg of test each week

Yes Iron can be dangerous and elevated levels but can be beneficial for someone who is anemic. Red blood cells need to carry oxyen and lack of is detrimental albeit BB get enough from their diet.

[muskel]

i got my sodium ascorbate yesterday.
I'm on 20g a day with even doses. Woke up dizzy this morning. A slight hypo?
Also i can smell the stuff everywhere. My hands stink of it.

[Shane35aa]

Curious how much weight did the C help you all lose?

[Crowned]

Im not sure if someone has asked about this. I only got threw page 4 before Im posting this but can you post a link to an online store that has the reccomended dosages? So I can be sure to get the right stuff. Im also looking for something that doesnt have a taste. I read that someone's vit had a nasty taste. I dont throw out anything, so if that happened to me... Id be stuck taking the stuff.

[muskel]

it tastes like salt mixed with baking soda. and i have got 25kg of it !

We should drink the stuff like vodka. Not for the taste but for the effect. I like 20g soluted in water and in the fridge(johans method)

[Danny_Dice]

i take 1000mg chews about 5 or 6 a day and i do feel a difference if for anythign else my immunity is built up ...

excessive iron intake is a powerful pro-oxidant and can lead to cardiovascualr prodlems down the line

[eyecandy_44]

what? i have never heard about that before!

[Shane35aa]

Checked prices its cheap enuff. I'm gonna give it a try.

[spywizard]

bump, i do 10-14g especially when i am starting to feel sick..

gives me the shits..

[richard_orchard]

After reading this thread, i started mega-dosing to get over "Glandular Fever". I started on New Years eve, and I feel so much better- nothing else has really worked. Quite amazing. I am definitely going to keep taking it - probably forever.

Thanks Johan.

Ime 4 days into the worst cold ive ever had, nose and eyes are flowing like a river!!!

I only have c-vitamin pills, 750mg per pill, I guess i will have to take a whole load of them ed,
I hope it will help...

[ash146]

not sure how much it will help. hopefully it will curtail the cold a little. its more effective when take it the second you feel the scratchy throat, runny nose, etc.

good luck bro, feel better!

[UberSteroids]

I take Ester C-1000. 2 pills each day = 2g/ed.

Man You got some halarious videos in Your signature Buuahhaha!

Van Dame! Look that that guy on his left... wearing the stalone style sunglasses and white t-shirt LOL

Also hahah this is some big nut sack! Every time I see Your sing I just laugh my ass off.. Thanks brotha!
Hahaa

[drinu]

I just got some powder as i taught it was much more convenient but it says 1 gram / 1/4 teaspoon how can one get this right you can never know how much you are taking .
For how much does one have to try to take 6 to 10 grams to notice something if it works or does not work as by time it comes a bit expensive but if the things you are saying is true its worth taking 10 grams of Vit C instead of some useless supplements

A decent scale would do the trick. I most often use a scale. But it realy doesnt make much of a difference if your a bit off when we are talking about gram amounts. One teaspoon=1 gram is usualy accruate enough if you are shooting for 6-10 grams. If you happen to get 5 or 11 instead realy doesnt matter

If you go to the right website(unfortunaly I dont have the links left to cheap american sites for vit c powder) it is dirt cheap.

the first thing I noticed when I started mega dosing(at 20 grams/day) was tremendous energy. But that gradualy goes away and most other effects show up with time. Like how my joint health improved alot over a few months, I dont catch colds nearly as often. I feel more energetic. Small subtle things.

Its no miracle fat burner and it wont put 10ibs of lean mass on you. But it has alot of nice subtle effects. It sure has done more for me than any crap like glutamin or creatine ever did.

The thing is that of my tube it says 1/4 of a teaspoon = 1 gram , if it was a teaspoon = 1 gram it would be ok.
Can one mix a teaspoon( which for me comes to 4 grams) in a bottle of water and sip it through the day??

yes but keep the bottle in a dark and cool place.

I usualy mix 10-15 grams in a bottle and sip on it over the day.

[clapper3989]

can someone post the benefits of megadosing Vit C

is there muscle gain? test boosts? like if im not trying to lose weight .. would this be worth taking?

and also... its sodium ascorbate that i want , if i have a sensitive stomach, correct? .. thanks

[drinu]

ive been doing 7 grams Vit C a day but no difference at all , shall one see a difference immediately or it takes a week ??

[Kärnfysikern]

Well there is nothing dramatic to notice and no difference to se. It wont burn fat like clen or build muscle like test. The most noticable effect I had was that it did accelerate my fat loss a bit, but took several weeks to notice a difference. And it completely cured my knees and that took maby 2-3 months.

It is not a muscle builder or a fatburner. It is simply a healthboost that can aid weightloss in the same way a r-ala ads in weightloss. It increase insulin sensitivity.

Its worth taking because of all its health benifits. Not because it will make any dramatic physique changes.

[Shane35aa]

Johan... WTF is that raccoon using to up its Test? What ever it is looks like it does the trick

[Schmidty]

How is that possible...whatever your body doesnt use goes right through you...Can you back this up?

I to have heared of this.

[stlhrse]

my multivitamin has an extra 18mg of Iron. Is that too much for megadosing vit c?
