Vitamin C is an antioxidant which goes under the names ascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate among other things. It quenches unwanted and
toxic byproducts of body metabolism. It is designed to partner with (and is similar to in molecular form) glucose according to the council of 12,
however the ability to make it was manipulated from us, mutating one of the genes required, some other animals were also hit but
most can produce their own. As our bodies structure changes the speed can be hindered by lack of antioxidants due to the ammount of
bi-products, also vitamin C seems to be a component in the actual physical process but i cannot recall how...

Having plenty of vitamin C will help this process greatly, either by having foods high in vitamin C, or supplementing it (do not use pills with sweetners in, go for either sugar-sweetened chewable, non-chewable. Sainsburys vitamin C if you are in the UK is a good start.

If your body tells you to have some, then do. For starters, 1 pill or glass of orange juice or an orange in the morning and same at lunch and in the evening, if you are using 500mg pills will equal to 1.5g of vitamin C. If you are having too much vitamin C (for me over 10 grams will do this) you may get diarhea as the body just flushes out the excess, which is non toxic unlike some other vitamins can be if taken in excess. So for this reason use vitamin C containing pill only. If you feel like taking more than the 3 pills a day, take more. Do as your body asks, consult your guidance if unsure. You might get a day where you don't feel you need any, or a day where you feel you need 3 - 4 grams worth... listen to your body. Vitamin C in large ammounts is very good for colds and other infections as it enables the body to fight them more effecently by removing unwanted byproducts. Personally i sometimes take around 5 - 8 grams, sometimes only 2.

^^ Do not want to sound doom and gloom but ive got to protect myself! Many I know who have tried this have come to no harm and have had a better quality of life :)

Do some research, this vitamin will help alot! :)
for starters i dont advise you to take too much, do the 3 pills a day for starters, or even a glass of orange juice in the morning and evening or an orange in the morning, lunch and evening, you dont have to use vitamin C pills. Listen to your body. A large orange can contain as much as 500mg or more of vitamin C. the same as a 500mg pill.

Do not try 'megadosing' with other vitamins or multivitamin pills, some vitamins are toxic when taken in excess.

You can find information on the internet about vitamin C megadosing.
