I have read that on a low carb diet, one doesn't need that much C. Can't remember the details though.

Thanks for posting this Carolyn. That's a fascinating article, especially when it compares the dog, sheep, and 'man' in the chart at the end. And the bit about the Gorilla was interesting too.
More research on my part is definitely in order on this subject. I understand that humans are one of only a handful of species that don't make their own vitamin C. What possible evolutionary situation would have considered that to be a "good" trait and where can we get vitamin C without fruits or vegetables?
