You can't really get "too much" vitamin C...
But with vitamin D, getting too much can have some pretty unwanted consequences.
You gotta take A LOT for that to happen though.
I haven't had any negative consequences for too much vitamin D, but I believe in listening to your body.
When it tells me it wants some, I give it some.
I megadose vitamin C about one day a week, and I might take a bunch on days I go somewhere too.
But if I'm just staying home, I devote one day to taking a big dose of vitamin C twice, once early in the day and once late in the day.
They say not to take a bunch of vitamin C before you go to bed because supposedly it can make you pee a lot, but I have never had that happen.
I think taking some supplements before bed (like magnesium) is a good idea. Vitamin C falls into that category for me. That way it can go to work repairing the body while I sleep.
