Default Vitamin C

Hi,

Has anyone tried taking 4 grams of vitamin c a day, I heard it’s supposed to help block cortisol. I am trying to get rid of my fat belly and fight metabolic resistance syndrome. I had heard that adding vitamin c to your daily regiment can help because of the blocking of cortisol.

Thanks,
kate

Hi. 4 grams is a lot of Vitamin C. That much would probably give me diarrhea...so I guess it would help me to get rid of a few pounds! I'd check it over with your Doctor...and I would also start low and work your way up...especially if you have a long walk to the bathroom. Let us know what your Doctor says!

Are you asking about 4g at once or spread out?

Your body will only absorb a certain amt of Vit. C a day, the rest you just pee out. If you eat fruit or take a vitamin you prob. get the right amount. The rest is just a waste of money.
