Guest guest Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Steve, In general you are right about this. I take a fat soluble version of the vitamin so that it stays in my system until it is used up. I would still pee it out if there was too much but this version holds it in my body longer so that I get the full benefit. The other type will leave your body almost immediately upon taking it if it is not immediately used. This is why I take only 4000mg a day and am getting such great results. Hope that helps.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Yes I'm confused about this point. The body spits out more than a certain amount of vitamin C. If you're getting what you need through your diet then your body spits out all of the additional vitamin C that you take. Am I wrong about this?

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Steve, Vitamin C stays in your body for 3 to 4 hours. So if you take it several times a day you will always have some working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
