Alternative Health Tips: Is it dangerous to consume 500 mg of vitamin C on a daily basis? If not, what are the benefits?

Today's alternative health tips is about vitamin C. We
can see a lot of vitamin C supplement product today in
the market. Most of them with a high dose of vitamin
C.

The fact is, large amounts of vitamin C are not
harmful. The excess of vitamin C including the type
that disolves in water that cannot be absorbed by the
body is discharged through the bladder.

A high dose of vitamin C has been suggested to prevent
flu. But Dr. Terrence W Anderson does not agree with
this suggestion.

According to him, if you take vitamin C daily you will
be less likely to get flu, but 250 mg daily will give
the same effect as 500 mg daily or even higher dose
because the body simply cannot absorb any more :).
