I have been taking approximately 2500 - 3000 mg/ day for the past 5 days or so and my joints ( from my toes to my fingers) are extremely sore. Prior to taking this I was relatively pain free (only had a sore knee). It is the only thing I have done differently lately. Is there any documentation which may indicate that this may be a side effect of too much vitamin C?

I just watched a documentary called Food Matters. One of the things mentioned was about Vitamin C and it fighting cancer. This is a must watch documentary. It talks about food we eat and vitamins we need.

I take 3,000-4,000mg of vitamin c daily and it has made a big difference in my life. It helps my disease stay under control. I also have not had a sniffle since I upped my dose. I find for my body the 500mg of vitamin c does nothing for me. Glad to see this article!
