A member asked:

Many supplements offer 1000mg vitamin c. is it necessary to consume that much? which food can give me 1000mg naturally?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No, see below: Excessive intake of vitamin c has not been shown to prevent or treat any diseases. 1000 mg is a whole lot more than needed. See this site for more information on this topic. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002404.htm.
