just read http://www.stop-smoking-tips.com/effects-smoking-vitamin-a-c.html and its really scary to know =/
Cigarettes and vitamin C are incompatible: big doses of this vitamin could be dangerous for smokers.. Doses over 4 gram a day are dangerous for smokers. Cadmium could be contained in human organism for tens of years and it is very complicated to be removed. That is why not only today’s smoking or consuming bad food is dangerous, but even bad habits and infected food one used 10 years ago SO stop smoking start consuming vitamin c supplement.. tak care
this is the first time when I'm reading about this subject...it's good to know stuff like this but it's hard to believe it
Vitamins C found on supplements has bad reaction to smokers but Vitamin C found on fruits don't react to smokers. Maybe something is added similar to melanin that increases Vitamins C instead of protein when added
Science is always confusing... doctors say that milk is good for health and a few years before some said that some times milk can be carcinogenic... which means it can induce cancer.... so.. there is no hard rule in those things... After all, all the inventions and discoveries aren't over yet....
Well based on my own experience since I had GERD. Vitamin C is the one responsible for the acids in your tummy basically speaking and they say that smoking can cause GERD. So taking Vitamin C while you're a smoker can lead to GERD or in extreme cases, Ulcer.
I don't correct answer about that is vitamin c harmful smokers or not. but i have 2 graphical views of vitamin c importance for our health. here i want to share will all.
matter of fact that smoking a cigarette breaks down the same amount of vitamin C as you would get from eating some fruits like orange.
Not incredible at all. Vitamin C is an "antioxidant vitamin". Antioxidants disable free radicals, but among the few beneficial actions of free radicals is the fact that they disable some of the carcinogens in cigarette smoke. (They have many harmful actions as well, of course). It's therefore easily understandable that excessive antioxidants can effectively promote some types of lung cancer in smokers, by preventing their free radicals from exercising this benefit. People like to imagine that things are either "good for you" or "bad for you" but the reality isn't as black and white as this: many things have both advantages and disadvantages and are more suitable for some people than for others. One has to assess the information for oneself and make one's own decisions in the light of one's own interpretation of it (which isn't always easy at all).
