Default 60,000 mg of vit C, how come !?
Hello,

I have a question....

I ran out of my vit C and was going to take one of the multivitamin capsules my dad takes... I started to read the contains to find if those had vitamin C and of course they did, it was the first one and I read:

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) 60,000 mg per capsule...

How come !? I mean, is that possible ? is that healthy ? As far as I knew, the maximun dosage recommended for vit C per day was 1,000 mg (1 g) and those pills have 60 g !!!?????

What the hell did I misunderstand 1?
