Vitamin C and Me...a Cautionary Tale
I was concerned I might be lacking in Vitamin C, as I really don't eat any fruit at all, and I was slacking a bit on the veggies. So many strengths of vitamin C to buy! I'll try the 1000mg. I took the capsule at my evening meal, and went to bed that night feeling satisfied that I would not come down with scurvy.
I woke up in the morning with a belly amazingly distended with gas! OMG! Did you know that vitamin C can cause gas? IT DOES! After a few fun yoga moves the gas was successfully (and hilariously) dispelled. I now cut my Vitamin C tablets into two (500mg is quite enough) and take it at breakfast.
