Re: Improving Immune System
[ QUOTE ]
You get enough by taking a multivitamin and even a decent diet. [/ QUOTE ] didn't they revise the rda to where it is pretty hard to get that much by diet alone? in any case I rmember reading that <250mg per day of C won't saturate tissues so a lot of people are pushing for an even higher rda of C.

Re: Improving Immune System
[ QUOTE ]
hey have you guys heard about like if you drink a coke or something sugary that your immune system is depressed for like 4-6 hours or something? anybody know if there's any truth to that? [/ QUOTE ] It does call out insulin, which can depress your system in general.

[/ QUOTE ] The thing about water-soluble vitamins that makes a "one a day" pill not so great is that, well, water-soluble means you can piss them out real quick. So just because you take a tablet in the morning doesn't mean you'll still have much of it at all in your system come lunchtime, or evening, or helping you rebuild during sleep that evening.

[/ QUOTE ] true i would think the science would support something like a 250mg C with every meal. I think the half life in your system is 4-6 hours I could be wrong though.
