I try to take 3000 mg daily. Do you space out your doses?

I have to keep my Vit C doses pretty low - I don't absorb it well, end up w/ diarrhea. I don't do well with juicing or large quantities of high-density foods.

I don't space my doses out.

I used to take 2000 mg daily.

Now I only take 1000 mg.

1000mg pill 2x/day. the liposomal version supposedly absorbs over 90% of the actual amount you're taking where pill form is maybe 20%. some believe this statistic some don't but the liposomal delivery system makes a lot of sense in terms of getting more vitamin c into your cells and not wasted in the colon.

Rikky, where do you buy the liposomal C?

Rikky1, I use Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C by LivOn Laboratories. It is 1000mg per packet. I take one a day. It is expensive. I order from Amazon.

I use large amounts of Vitamin C because I actually feel better on the higher doses. I'm taking 6,000 mgs split into 3 doses - so 2,000 mgs 3 times a day.

I take Ester C. I take 3,000 mg. I was told to take it a little day by day and upping it. When your stools get loose, then back off to the last amount taken and that is what your body is liking.

100g per week IV drip

I built up from 25g, 50, 75 to 100. on my first dose at 100 I noticed my jaw tension (I suspect cavitations)
eased almost entirely for a couple of days.

I plan to do this for 8 weeks or so, depending on results

1000mg daily of an ester brand. I was doing high dose Ascorbic Acid for a while back when I was just getting yeast under control and my body didn't respond to it well even though I ramped it up slowly.

I was a bit surprised that it seemed to set me back at the time.
