Meanwhile, liposomal vitamin C is a form encapsulated in liposomes, a small vesicle made from cholesterol or other phospholipids. These supplements can help increase the absorption of vitamin C, but they are also often more expensive ( 14, 17). However, the NIH also states there is conflicting evidence of whether kidney stones and vitamin C intake are related. The organization says that people most at risk of kidney stones due to ingesting too much vitamin C are those with existing high amounts of oxalate in their urine. Should people take vitamin C daily? However, some believe that taking very large doses of vitamin C, or “megadosing,” is beneficial. This may stem from a 1976 paper indicating that high dose vitamin C could prolong the lives of people with terminal cancer. The recommended daily amount of vitamin C for adults is 90 mg for men, 75 mg for women, and up to 120 mg for people who are pregnant or nursing. However, certain medical conditions may require that you take much higher doses ( 1).

If you smoke, have kidney disease, take certain medications, or consume a very limited diet, you may be at an increased risk for vitamin C deficiency ( 2). Furthermore, vitamin C is involved in protein metabolism and helps the body absorb iron in plant foods. The NIH also mentions vitamin C’s antioxidant activity and its important role in the immune system. A 2018 study suggests that this antioxidant activity may offer protection against pollution damage, which may cause lung cancer, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Vitamin C is essential for energy production and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It also protects cells from damage from oxidative stress, and aids with iron absorption.
