How much Vitamin C does youre body hold?

The excess is all expelled as waste, but what is the max it can hold?
Many products contain 1000mg or more of Vitamin C, but is it doing any good?

no...believe it or not you piss it out; anything more than 500mg twice a day is a waste;

its a waste to consume more than 500mg of vitamin C in a 24 hour period. However, if you are a smoker..I'd suggest taking a little bit more than the "usual" dose, because there is something with the chemicals/nicotine in cigarettes that "destroys" the vitamin C in your body.

The only way to test this would be with radioactive Vitamin C, and I don't think we have any volunteers...
