Steve,
See Alacer Supergram II 1 gram Vitamin C for balanced time released doses.
But, you do need to replace minerals -- and with more than 10 grams daily
see Pauling's book How to Live Longer and Feel Better for the list of a few
other supplements he always took.

This has probably already been answered somewhere in this interesting
thread, so my apologies for asking again.
How does the body deal with the elevated acidic levels in the blood stream,
particularly when excreted through the kidneys? A while back I ingested
regular doses of time-released vitamin C tablets (as a health precaution)
and I seem to recall eventually experiencing a burning in my urinary track
which I attributed to irritation brought on by higher acidic levels in my
blood and in in my urine. When I stopped taking C the irritation went away.
I assume the general answer to my affliction would be to drink more water
to dilute the acidic content, (Drinking plenty of water is always
considered a good thing!) but doesn't one then have to deal with the
possibility that other vital minerals & vitamins are in danger of being
flushed out of the system as well?
I'm curious. How does one balance the pros and cons?
