FWIW, I take 10,000 iu of Vit D3 and 1000 mg of Vit C per day. Knock on wood, have not been sick in years and don’t, as far as I know, have kidney stones.
Yup, we’ve working our way into a deep hole with crap from China.
I generally take 1-2 grams of vitamin c daily. but i’ve seen many trials that were neutral to inconclusive as to the benefits of vitamin C.
that said, I’ve not had a cold many many years.
I do take about 10k iu of d3 plus k2.
Lately I’ve started taking two grams of b3 timed release niacin for my cardiovascular system. the time release makes it easy to do the high doses. You don’t get any benefit from the no flush version.

Yes, Pauling did have it right, but during his lifetime he was ostracized by the medical community for his advocacy of Vitamin C. A good read:

I take 5500 IUs of D3...................
Thx for your concern...I’m more concerned about controlling auto immune disease I have...and I am very well hydrated.
D3, Vit C, Zinc and magnesium and you are damn near virally bulletproof! Haven’t been sick in over 30 year since I started this. COVID vaccine can suck it!
i was doing 5k iu d3 until covid. then I upped it to 10k. may go back down to 5k in a year.

I don’t take any vit C and don’t ever get cold symptoms. When I take vit C I came down with the flu.
Gotta take D3 with it...................
Interesting..
I take 2 vitamins. C and D3. I have RA so naturally a low immune system.
I’ve been taking 1,000 mg of C for years and double up in winter. For some reason I felt like I needed D3 so I started taking that about a year ago. Knock on wood, I’ve been free of colds and flu since. It may not work for everyone.
I’ve heard that what you don’t use/need passes thru your system anyway.
Def rose hips!
I miss my coated Vit C caplets. What you can find are so expensive so I choke on the non-coated dryer caps.
We give IV Vitamin "C" in Hospitals....
Liposomal is equal to IV....
And you can make it yourself....
I thought calcium was a culprit for kidney stones. I have a calcium deposit in my brain that caused me to pass out. I didn’t know one could get calcium deposits anywhere in the body. I do now!
You heard right......Try Liposomal Vit.”C”
