(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 30, 2012 ) London, UK - 'Can You Overdose on Vitamin C' has announced the launch of a new website. The goal of the website is to serve as an information source for those seeking to discover the benefits, as well as the disadvantages, of Vitamin C. The material on the site covers a range of topics with regards to the consumption of the vitamin, and brings the information to readers in a clear and easy to understand fashion.
According to health experts, the upper limit for Vitamin C is 2,000 mg per day. Consuming a higher quantity than the established limit can potentially begin to introduce overdose symptoms. A continual overconsumption of the vitamin will, in many cases, cause nausea, stomach pain and diarrhea. Kidney stones are also known to form as a result of an excessive intake of Vitamin C.
The risks of an overdose stem mainly from supplementation; the amount of Vitamin C in foods alone is not high enough to present any risks, as it would take unrealistic amounts of each to reach the upper limit. An orange, for instance, which is considered to be one of the highest sources of Vitamin C, only contains 65 mg of the vitamin. Reaching the 2,000 mg daily limit would require the consumption of over 30 oranges per day, a highly improbable number for an individual to consume in one day.
In addition to the adverse effects of overconsumption, the website also covers the health benefits of vitamin C. According to "Can You Overdose on Vitamin C", a number of doctors and health researchers strongly advocate, in certain cases, the intake of mega doses of the vitamin. Advocates state that large doses contribute to maximum health as well healing of the body. To reach such high dosage, the vitamin is taken in the form of pills or injections.
