Did a search and gained some good knowledge, but has anybody tried vitamin C in high dose? Such as 3,000mg daily?
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Yes especially when sick and I tell you what it helps tons. There's some concrete studies that you can look up on mega dosing vit c and the benefits. Get some from fresh oranges and supplement the rest with tablets (high grade are the best, forgot which form is best when it comes to vit c I'll look it up when I have more time)

I read some of info out there on Vitamin C. Carlito, I see lots of info on the high dosing too. Some folks recommended 6,000mg or more a day! They claim it leads to a happier life in some. Like anything else it has doubters, but overall seems worth it IMO.
The tolerable upper limit according to the USA is 2,000mg for an adult male. With the amount of protein I’ll be taking I think 3,000mg daily will be OK.
Anybody ever try a high dose of it? What’s some of the amounts people here take daily?

The book, “How to live longer and Feel better”, written by a Nobel-Prize-winning chemist, recommended more than 10,000mg daily. Some advocates now believe it’s the cause of a downward trend in US heart disease from the early 1980s on.

Megadosing vitamin C is fine, it might cost a little bit more but for 99% of people it is fine to take over 3g of vitamin C.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
The RDA is outdated. Some numbers they give are too high, others too low.Fortress Maximus said:
Megadosing vitamin C is not harmful. It's water soluble. If you have too much in your body at one time, you piss it out. Be careful to choose a good brand for supplements. If it's made in China it might have lead and that **** accumulates in the body.
I wish I was joking.
ALA (ala lipolic acid) is useful for chelation therapy. It slowly removes heavy metals from the body (like lead, cadmium)... if you're worried about that sort of thing.

All sounds great guys. My Vitamin C is a US product made by Nature Made, seems to be a legit company.

Free radicals increase is related to job stress too right?
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
You're thinking about the free radicals that occur naturally as a result of your natural metabolism. Those don't last long in the body as they get converted into something else.ArcBound said:
Extra free radicals from radiation, weird chemicals and preservatives... etc. Are not natural and your body will not and cannot use them. They are waste and cause damage.

I have take as much as 5 grams a day.
It is generally considered safe to take several grams a day, although it can cause GI upset. It's not really necessary unless you are sick or in a catabolic state--Vit C can mitigate cortisol levels and is also ESSENTIAL for collagen production.

And I'm shocked I don't know more ladies taking Vitamin C for the collagen production.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I feel the same way Quicksilver.Quiksilver said:
After taking in a lot of reading on Vitamin C, plus the input from the post, I feel comfortable taking 3,000mg a day.
