| Re: Can guineas get TOO MUCH Vitamin C?
Vitamin C is water soluble. The rule of thumb if they pee out the excess but some studies show that too much vit C then too little can lead to pseudo-scurvy but unless you are giving 50 times the recommended daily intake, you should be fine. Some studies show in humans that too much vit c over a large span can increase the risk for arthritis later though. Take that for what it's worth.
Hera- plain vit C drops are fine. The ones you add to the water are bad news. It's multivitamins, salt licks and mineral licks that are bad. |
