How much Vitamin C should we take?
Researchers recently discovered that high doses of Vitamin C slow down the recovery process. After intense running, athletes were given 1000mg of the vitamin daily. They reported loss in muscle strength for up to one week. It turns out that 1000mg of Vitamin C daily may slow down the recovery process while 500mg daily speeds it up. Based on this and another recent study, researchers now recommend a dose of 500mg of Vitamin C daily for greatest benefits.
