Huge germ freak when it comes to throwing up and all that lovely stuff. I never eat things unless I wash my hands before and I take a vitamin that has 250 mg of vitamin c. I found out that most vitamins only have 100 so will this help me even more when it comes to me from getting sick?

It will help U from getting the flu but no guarantee U won't still get it. Ur odds of not getting it R better than people that don't take
vitamins. That's not too much vitamin C to hurt you. What the body doesn't absorb it will discharge. No U should not worry about problems with Ur kidneys. Calcium hurts kidneys a lot worse than vitamins do.
I hope this help U.

Your body will just eliminate anything over what it can absorb. Large doses of vitamin C (over 1000mg) at a time have proven to drastically, but temporarily reduce the # of virals in the body. It can however be hard on your kidneys for long term high doses.
