Humans have lost the ability to manufacture ascorbic acid and must obtain it from their diet on a daily basis.

Ascorbic acid is well known as the antiscorbutic vitamin (prevents scurvy) but it has a wider role than this. Ascorbic acid is essential not only for the formation of collagen and but also for processes in the body dependent on collagen production such as connective tissue, cartilage, bone as well as blood vessel walls. It is consequently also indispensable for healing of wounds and union of fractures. Ascorbic acid is also important in certain vital functions of the body such as carbohydrate and protein metabolism and cellular oxidation. Ascorbic acid is required for optimal protection against resistance to environmental toxins (bacterial toxins, free radicals etc) and for survival under stress such as resistance to infections and severe trauma. These stressors can vary on a daily basis and consequently a requirement for ascorbic acid also constantly changes.

To determine how much ascorbic acid should be taken each day the so called bowel tolerance technique should be followed. This is based on the principle that the presence of a concentrated substance, such as ascorbic acid in the intestine, attracts water from the surrounding cells, thereby loosing the stool and producing diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is thus only produced when there is excess ascorbic acid present in the intestine, ascorbic acid that has not been absorbed by the cells. In other words, diarrhoea only starts when you have exceeded the level of ascorbic acid your body requires at that moment. The optimal level of ascorbic acid to take is just before this bowel tolerance effect i.e. Diarrhoea causing level is reached and this should be followed every day.
