How much is Vitamin C needed?

Adults between the ages of 19 and 64 require 40 milligrammes of vitamin C each day. Your regular diet should provide you with all of the vitamin C you need. Because vitamin C cannot be stored in the body, it must be consumed daily.

Taking a lot of vitamin C (greater than 1,000mg per day) can lead to diarrhoea flatulence, stomach ache diarrhoea. When you stop using vitamin C pills, these symptoms should go away. A diverse and balanced diet should provide you with all of the vitamin C you require. If you use vitamin C pills, don’t overdo it since it might be dangerous. Taking vitamin C supplements in doses of less than 1,000mg per day is unlikely to damage you.
