Why You Should take Vitamins

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

Even so, experts still don’t quite agree on how much vitamin C you should get and what is the best way to take it. Is natural vitamin C important, or can you get supplements with a synthetic kind? Should you get all of it from food, or should you get some of it from pills as well? Most of all, is there any truth to the claims that taking huge amounts of vitamin C can help you fight off infections? Does it really help, or does it actually just put added strain on your system which has to get rid of all of the excess vitamins?

People really don’t know if it is really helps to take many times the US RDA of vitamin C. However, it seems not to harm the body and there is no such thing as a serious vitamin C overdose. If you take too much of the vitamin, it is simply flushed out of your system. Seldom, it can give you an upset stomach, but that is about it. You certainly will not have to be rushed to the hospital!
