Do megadoses of vitamin C cause wall of arteries to thicken? since vitamin C is involved in collagen synthesis
Answers:
No as what your body cannot use it will excrete in your urine.
no it is safe to take 1000mg a day but its best to take soluble(fizzy) ones as the body rids this vitamin through wee .Taking it this way it is absorbed quicker.
No, it is not harmful. Your body will just absorb what it needs and the rest will go out together with the urine.
no, megadoses of vitamin C (up to 2 grams, imagine?!) are still safe. no, in theory it even helps unclogging the arteries (theoretically) because people taking megadoses of vitamin C have been found to have reduction in their bad cholesterol.
