Vitamin C is water-soluble, so consuming more than the body needs will result in it being excreted in urine.
Seems like good information to tuck away for when I decide to begin my career as a pirate.
I will continue to only eat meat & drink water. Today is my 996th day utilizing this wonderful, ancestrally appropriate way of eating.
I take no supplements. Meat supplies all the nutrition I need to thrive!

Fear of Scurvy is what kept me from joining the Merchant Marines.
There is a ten minute video on YouTube of Cathcart describing how to prepare a solution of water and sodium ascorbate for use in an IV drip. Some believe this to be an effective cancer treatment when used in high doses. They recommend three days a week for several weeks. If done professionally, it could run $300 or more per application. My wife had cancer but we couldn’t afford it, so I was trying to learn how to administer an IV but it was too late. IV bags of sterile water for human use are about $100, vs $10 for veterinary use. Sterile water is sterile, right?
“SUMMARY A method of utilizing vitamin C in amounts just short of the doses which produce diarrhea...”
My hemorrhoids appreciate the diarrhea.
VERY interesting.
