Random thoughts Stray memories

You just emailed me about, among other things, Vitamin C. I hope you don't mind me pasting that whole chunk here, I couldn't find a better way to paraphrase it. :) You know the oddest things, did I ever tell you?

"You know perhaps one of the reasons why over-dosing in Vitamin C (actually slight laxative when over-dosed) is not as harmful or even helpful e.g. common cold-fighting / anti-oxidizing, is because Vit.C is soluable in water & the body would not retain them in body fat like Vit.A which is soluble in fat instead thus accumulative. I.e. the excess Vit.C (effervescent Vitamin C tablets in water) is just washed away through our body. (Doesn't make sense, I know.)"

Hey, it does actually.
