OP do you get diarrhea w/ that amount of vit. c? srs

[aaronuconn]

You're not concerned at all with that amount of vit.c and pro-oxidant activity?

[JOSEF RAKICH]

Nope not at all.

I doesn't afraid of anything.

To each their own, but I doubt you're absorbing more than 500-1000mg in one sitting.

[Neopragmatist]

are you trying to target a particular disease? Absorptive efficiency of vitamin C drops significantly as you up the dosage. If you are going to megadose, at least I would recommend doing so at 400-500mg max for each dosing.

[Baddog079]

I'd like to see someone megadose manganese becuase I hear it gives some bad poops

Did you intend to type 12gs Vitamin C?

[Mk2fly]

Your ability to absorb vitamin C decreases as the dose increases. Ex. 1 g, you absorb 75%; 3 g, you absorb 40%; 5 g, you absorb 25%.

Magnesium citrate FTW!

No, I just like chewing the tablets lol..

Yes 12,000mg

I started off taking 2g per day, but they were just so dam good and then things escalated pretty quickly from there lol..

[joregorn]

its from the vitamin C brah dem dere tropical fruit chewies

[HilaryClinton]

Megadosing vitamin C is incredibly stupid for a bodybuilder. Actually, megadosing any vitamins/minerals outside of B-vitamins is incredibly stupid.

Quite stupid to use that much.

You could make a case for high doses of VitD.

[HilaryClinton]

You could make a case for high doses of VitD.

And a case against it too. 10,000 IU of vitamin D is not megadosing, physiologically. A few million would be.

yes I am more referring to doctor prescribed dosages in the range of 25-30k IU.

[HilaryClinton]

No doctor would prescribe that aggressive of a dose unless the patient had a condition, nor does vitamin D need a prescription.

[aaronuconn]

You can purchase 50,000 iu Vit. D capsules online. I wonder how many people actually would take this daily..

[joregorn]

Hilary didn't you have a brain trouble recently you lose your credibility

[naturalguy]

I mega dose them all, this way I am covered

[rhadam]

No chit its for a condition. Hence the reason its recommended by a doctor. No chit it does not need a prescription.

Ah right, so doctors will never make recommendations or encourage lifestyle changes if no obvious pathology is present.

Back on topic, what does vitamin D for a clinical condition have to do with a thread about bodybuilders?

Was a typo on my part, supposed to read ranges from 25-50k IU. Do i really need to extrapolate on why doctors prescribe high doses of VitaminD to patents with hormone issues? Cmon....

Very bodybuilding related.
