To go further on this tangent, just mentioning it because it's rather useful: Studies show that vitamin C protects the stomach lining from stomach acid - unclear why exactly, but clear that it does. There are pills that combine the two, but you can also just buy some vitamin C and take it it with the pills. Like all water-soluble vitamins, you can't really overdose: the excess is excreted.
- robocat 4mo agoAnd you've just done the same mistake? Taking too much vitamin C [acidic] can cause side effects, including: Upset stomach, vomiting and loose stools. Heartburn. Stomach cramps or bloating. https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-vitamin-c/art-20363932 https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-vitamin-c/art-2... I mean what you've said is interesting (albeit irrelevant to ibuprofen given the pathway).
- ahartmetz 4mo agoOK, so you can overdose and that is important to know - but a few hundred mg fortunately won't do it. The article recommends against daily use of 2,000+ mg.
