is it dangerous to eat more than 1 vitamin c gummies a day?

Q. i eat like 4-6 of them while playing my games
i have had a history of a vitamin c deficiency
they taste good
i just noticed that the directions said eat no more than 2 a day
what are the side effects of eating more?
am i going to get sick?

A. wow does it really say that?

man i love v-c gummies

if it were me i'd eat like 10-15 of them and not even notice anything xD

well if it says no more than 2 you should listen, best not to kill yourself :P

ok well apparently it's not good to overdose yourself. probably can get health problems

"You can threaten your health but taking too many vitamins. Too much Vitamin C, for example, can cause nausea, diarrhea, even kindney stones. Your friends should switch to the regular candy gummies."

you should eat regular gummies if you want to eat gummies instead of snacking on vitamin ones

Is it okay to let my cats live in my finished basement?
Q. I have two cats that I love dearly. They are about a year old. I recently moved back with my parents, and my dad does not like cats so I keep them in my finished basement. I spend time with them down there, and make sure they always have human contact, food and water. There is a window that they sit and look out, and I keep the lights on for them. Someone told me that they can die from a Vitamin C deficiency, but they get light down there. Can anyone provide some insight for me. I also don't intend on keeping them down their forever. Just about a year or so. Thanks!

A. Sure. Cats can adapt to almost any living situation.


If cholestoral is so bad for you, how come the body produces it?
Q. A vitamin C deficiency leads to a breakdown in the arterial walls, due to a lack of repair options. The liver produces cholestoral to plug the cracks, so blood doesn't start leaking through the coronary artery walls. So why is cholestoral considered bad when it's saving your life?

A. You've hit on an important topic, because there is some research coming out now, that seems to indicate our thinking on this has been backward;

it is a MARKER for something bad happening, but it's not actually the CAUSE of the problem.

In other words, yes, high levels in your bloodstream are connected to heart disease, etc., but that doesn't mean it's causative.
So, to take Statins, etc., to cut down on the levels, may be actually harming you.

And you're a bit off on the Vitamin C thing; yes, SCURVY causes the lesions you're talking about, but that is not 'mild' Vitamin C deficiency, that is ACUTE deficiency.
Eating too much saturated fats, and not exercising enough is by far the biggest causes of lesions inside your arteries.

And taking megadoses of Vitamin C has not been proven to help anyone in any way, incidentally.
