Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 I am getting obsessed when i have to use a measurement like 1/4 teaspoon?should i take little more? little less?It is very hard to adjust.anyone like me? bw Nil How do you take powder VIt C My Vit C powder is from Biotics Rearch, and contains Vit C, cAcium and a lil of Mag. I was wondering how do you take it? It says 1 teaspoon approx. Do I put it in water and drink it all at once?? Somewhere in my doctors book I read to put it in orange juice and drink it throughout the day. Will I get diareah if I drink it all at once rather than space it out. The amount per serving is 2,767mg. I'm going to start with 1/4 teaspoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 You can do it in water, drinks or on the tongue (sounds gross but works best for me). Whether you get the runs is based completely on your own bowel tolerance. If one Teaspoon is one gram, try half a teaspoon twice a day and see how you do. You can increase from there. And if you take iron, do the C and iron together. C helps with iron absorption. Cheri -----Original Message----- My Vit C powder is from Biotics Rearch, and contains Vit C, cAcium and a lil of Mag.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 IMO it is hard to overdo C. If you up till you get soft stool, then back down, you should be fine. Some here are taking 3000-5000mgs. I take 2000 daily but have taken up to 10000. E Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 It is said that Ca should not be taken with iron. How many hours should be between the two? bw Nil RE: How do you take powder VIt C You can do it in water, drinks or on the tongue (sounds gross but works best for me).

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Just buy measuring spoons like for baking. I use them for my powders and a separate set to measure my HC cream. I have had no problems.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 , Adding powder VC to juice makes it pleasant to drink it does not have to be orange juice it can be any kind of juice or even plain water. You could add lemon or lime juice to the water as well. Vitamin C is water soluble so it leaves the body in 2 to 3 hours. Therefor it is best to divide your dosage into at least 3 times a day to insure you receive the best results from Vitamin C. Taking a 1/4 teaspoon, 4 times a day would make your dosage 691 for each, one of those taken right before sleep might be nice as it has magnesium in it which might help you to sleep. Adell stated one needs to take large amounts for a short time slowly decreasing the amount as it is best to saturate the tissues then one goes to a maintenance dosage.
