If you have kidney stones or a history of oxalate-related kidney issues, talk to your healthcare practitioner about appropriate vitamin C dosing — high-dose long-term use can be a concern for some adults.

Long-term daily intake above 2,000 mg is not recommended for healthy adults without practitioner supervision.

Most research on vitamin C's benefits uses doses of 500-2,000 mg daily. 1,000 mg from supplementation, plus what you get from food, is a common daily intake.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e➕ \u003cstrong\u003eWill it help with colds?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe research on vitamin C and colds is mixed. Consistent daily vitamin C may slightly reduce cold duration and severity for some adults. Starting high doses only after symptoms appear hasn't shown strong evidence.
