27. A vitamin C overload is never good.
“I used to be obese, 5 “4 180lbs. So my mother decided to get me a personal trainer. At the time, I was 12 or 13, and this girl trainer was beautiful. I would work so hard to impress her, and usually, she could tell I was tired, so then we would do a cool down. I wasn’t building muscle like I wanted to and so I asked my brother what to do. He told me vitamins were the answer. Without a second thought, 10 minutes before my session, I ate all of the vitamin C I could find and washed it down with orange juice. “
Reddit user tloft continues, “Went to my cardio session and tried my hardest to hold down the acidic mix I just put down. Did pretty good until the ladder drill came. Then halfway through, I couldn’t hold it anymore. Fluorescent orange throw-up came out of my nose and mouth. I then slipped and landed in it. Needless to say, my trainer was DEFINITELY impressed. Shortly after, I asked my mom to withdraw me from the sessions and switch gyms.” If you have a sibling who gives you advice that your not sure of, make sure you clarify and do some research on your own.
