Hi!
Vitamin C can be harmful if taken in too much quantity. Your kidneys throw out the excess vitamin C, but it does increase the load on kidney function over time.
Avoid taking the supplement ms if there is no necessity. Take sprouts, citrus fruits, raw vegetables- these will give you the daily required quantity.
Next Steps
Drink plenty of water, eat vitamin C rich food. Consult on practo.com for further advice
