Hi CL02,

Thanks for all your contributions. Your recent comment on “vitamin c in large doses can remain in the body for several days” surprised me. I have read oodles of info on ascorbic acid over 30 years up til now, inc half life calculations of remaining vit c after ingestion. Can you reference studies confirming your idea about " several days"? If not please retract that part of your advice because it is totally inaccurate. Look up Linus Pauling Nobel prize winner in biochemistry, dr LeviMD, dr Saul Phd and many other ascorbic acid dosage/usage experts who talk about half life info, regarding oral vitamin c. All the best, keep up yr good work

Hi reeve9191
Could you please give us a short summary of what you have read. Just a short paragraph about Vit C half life and how long approximately it stays in the body; that would be very helpful.
Thanks

"Vitamin C in the Body
How long does vitamin C stay in the body?

Vitamin C can stay in the body for weeks. Levels of vitamin C in the blood are controlled by the kidneys through a process known as ‘renal reabsorption,’ which prevents vitamin C from being lost in the urine. Taking large doses of it can overwhelm this system, so the extra amount is lost in the urine in a matter of hours.

When someone who already has high levels in the blood takes some vitamin C, the increase in the body is only temporary – the majority is lost in the urine. When someone who doesn’t have high blood levels of vitamin C takes it, the vitamin stays in the system longer."
