Yes: It is ascorbic acid......too much excreted in urine can cause kidney stone. Daily need of Vit C is 60mg only.

Hard to do: It is a water soluble vitamin, so excess is eventually urinated out, but if kidney disease, dehydration, or taken in crazy high quantities, it (and anything) can become toxic. Some say max absorption is only 200mg/d; for more info, see: http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminC-HealthProfessional/

Vitamin C: For adults, the recommended daily dose is 65 to 90 mg a day, and the upper limit is 2 grams a day. Although too much dietary vitamin C is unlikely to be harmful, megadoses of vitamin C supplements may cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, heartburn Abdominal bloating and cramps, headache Insomnia and Kidney stones
