Here are some outstanding points related to or on vitamin C:

“Although lipoic acid can also regenerate (vitamin) E, vitamin C does it better.”
“(Human beings) are one of the few animals that do not produce vitamin C on their own and therefore must rely on getting enough of it through food and supplements.”
“Because vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, any excess that is ingested is eliminated in urine….The only negative effets from too much vitamin C are abdominal cramping and diarrhea.”
“I would like to state unequivocally that I believe the RDA [recommended daily allowance] for vitamin C is much too low and does not provide adequate antioxidant protection.”
