The recommended daily allowance for vitamin C varies. The current recommendation for adults is 120 mg daily, although a dose of 60 mg daily is all that is required to prevent scurvy. Some experts think the level should be as high as 200 mg daily to match the level present in 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily, a diet shown to decrease cancer risk.\nMegadoses of vitamin C have not been shown in clinical trials to reduce viral illnesses such as colds. Large doses of vitamin C, ie, more than 1 g/d, may increase the risk of certain illnesses such as kidney stones, particularly oxalate stones.

The craze over vitamin C's power to prevent and treat colds started with the Nobel Prize-winning chemist Linus Pauling's 1970 book Vitamin C and the Common Cold. Pauling advised taking 3,200 to 12,000 milligrams per day, far higher than conventional standards. The latest recommendation from the Institute of Medicine is 75 milligrams per day for women and 90 for men, with an extra 35 milligrams daily for smokers, who suffer higher levels of oxidative stress and cellular damage. This is a far cry from Pauling's original proposals. And studies testing Pauling's cold theory indicate that vitamin C probably does not prevent colds but may make them milder and shorten their duration.

Vitamins A, D, and E are lipids.  They are stored in your body fat and released on an "as needed" basis.  The B complex and C vitamins are water soluble and therefore need to be replenished on a daily basis.  All vitamins are used as your body requires so adsorption is independent of intake.

According to Victor Herbert, MD, a hematologist at the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, there are normally about 1,000 milligrams of iron "stored" in the average adult man's body but only about 300 milligrams in a premenopausal woman's. Once women stop menstruating, however, their iron levels -- and their heart disease risk -- begin to climb, eventually matching that of men.

VITAMIN E: this anti-oxidant has other uses in the treatment of scars, and has been employed in the treatment of Peyronie’s disease since 1945.\n\nTake a 400 IU of Natural Vitamin E softgel daily. I prefer, whats known as, mixed tocopherols verses just d-alpha. Vitamin is so important to take for many other reasons to. Cheap. About 7-9 cents per day. Anywhere vitamins are sold but be sure is says natural vitamin E. Synthetic vitamin E is all some places sell and is much less effective.

Between 80 and 120 mg/dl, assuming that they have not eaten within a few hours previously.\nChildren's BG's seem to vary more than adults, possibly because they expend energy so much more "explosively" and have smaller reserves of stored fats.

New guidelines for adolescents and adults are 1,000-1,300mg per day depending on age and gender about 300mg per day higher than the old values.\nA glass of milk, a tub of yogurt or, two cheese slices provide about 300mg of calcium.

A urologist can diagnose the disease and suggest treatment, though treatment is limited since Peyronie's disease is not fully understood. Treatment usually takes the form of surgery and oral medications. Tablets of vitamin E 800 mg/day or potassium aminobenzoate (Potaba) 12 g/day may produce some improvement; you will need a doctor’s prescription. Don’t be tempted to take higher doses of vitamin E.
