If you have taken high doses of Vitamin C (over 5,000mg a day), I'd be interested in hearing any symptoms (if any) you may have experienced.

IT WON'T HURT YOU. YOU MIGHT HAVE LOOSE STOOLS. YOU SHOULD START TO FEEL BETTER . MY HUSBAND TAKES 10,000 A DAY. HE'S BEEN DOING THAT FOR YEARS.

Do not take more ascorbic acid than is prescribed for you or than is directed on the package.
• Stop taking ascorbic acid and seek emergency medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives).
• Other less serious side effects may also occur, especially with large or prolonged doses. Talk to your doctor if you experience
· diarrhea, or
· kidney stones

Linus Pauling did but he passed away of old age . Vitamin C in excess is usually flushed out of the system because it is water soluble but I'm almost positive too mush of anything is not good.
next time u see your family physician ask the MD...

Since vitamin C is water soluble, you eliminate it, thus no symptoms. However, I do not recommend that much in one day.

your pee will turn very orange, because you have to much of it in you and it will almost feel like you drank ten energy drinks, because t boosts your immune system. i wouldnt take too much of it for too long though.
