Yaowa Quiz | Is it better to take more vitamin C supplements?

The human body cannot lack vitamin C, but more is not necessarily better. Data show that long-term and large intake of more than 2000 mg/day of vitamin C will affect the endocrine system and may also lead to adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal dysfunction, urate stones, and kidney stones. In particular, vitamin C effervescent tablets should not be consumed excessively, and its maximum tolerable dose (UL) is 2000 mg/day. Many people think that effervescent tablets taste good because they contain sugar, sodium, flavors and other ingredients. If you drink it as a beverage without limit, and add vegetables and fruits in your daily diet, the human body's daily vitamin C intake may exceed the maximum tolerable dose, and excessive intake of other added ingredients will also cause a burden on your health.
