Vitamin C is known to cause diarrhea in large amounts, but not constipation.
I drink about two or three glasses of high VC orange juice everyday, and I don't get constipated.
No, thats what I was recomended to take for my immunity system boost!
I was told by my nurse that even if you take too much you just piss it out!
i do the same thing. I drink these things call "Emergen-c" And its a powder that you put in your drink and it gets all fizzy, but its like 1200mgs of Vit.C In a packet. Ive done that for a while but i have never really gotten constipated because of that!
No
Vitamin D can constipate you and so can Iron pills but I've never heard of Vitamin C.
Are you drinking enough water?
Are you eating your fibre? (veggies, cereal, nuts..etc)
