Babe, if you feel great on 3000mg, stick with it. My threshold is 1500mg a day. Anything over that and I'm on the loo all day, lol.
If the 3000mg a day is sending you to the toilet with loose stools, then back it off until that calms down. Otherwise, keep doing what you're doing. You're doing your body a big favour :)

Talk with your caregiver about how much Vitamin C you should take. The amount depends on the strength of the medicine and the reason you are taking Vitamin C. If you are using this medicine without instructions from your caregiver, follow the directions on the medicine bottle. Do not take more medicine or take it more often than the directions tell you to.
Taking large amounts may cause diarrhea
