I am definitley feeling different 15-20 mins after I drink it. My eyes are seeming to let in more light somehow(stuff looks brighter)although my pupils are not dilated,they feel as if they are,and I feel like I have drank 3 strong cups of coffee,except no heart flutters like you get on too much caffeine.
This afternoon is almost comparable to having drunk few red bulls-which I used to like except they got me too wired.
I am starting to think this is down to the magic goop,as I never really feel like this naturally,and have certainly never felt those effects from taking regular vitimin C supplements,which I used for years.I also think the effects are too pronounced for it to be a placebo thing.
Am i correct in saying it lasts for a couple of weeks in the fridge? Its in a glass jar inside a dark bag.

Anyone get so eager they failed to start out slowly? Any ill effects?
I just made some and took an ounce, which I know isn't bad, but it's later in the day...

Hi - yes me.
I over did it on Friday, its now Tuesday and im still feeling horrible. go back a couple of pages and you will see my post where i describe how I felt. I must say its not nice and much worse than just a bit of a dicky tummy. Im not sure I'll be able to stomach it again.
I think im going to stick to good old fruit and veg, fresh air and exercise and the odd vit c pill when I feel a cold coming on. I may try this again in a week or two but it has really put me off.
Take it easy and dont over do it!
edit to add: also I think part of the problem was that I put a small tea spoon of the vit c into a smoothy the day before to get things moving (which was probably loads!), and also my mix didnt encapsulate properly so a hell of a lot of vit c for my stomach to deal with . I know this because I did the encapsulation test and it was at 50%, maybe less which I think was down to me not soaking the lecithin for long enough.

I made the stuff today, and I took my first dose. I had to make my husband take some, and I won't be surprised if I have to bribe him going forward all because of the taste.
Other than tasting super sour, which I don't mind, it tasted metal-ish.
Has anyone else had their batch taste a little metallic? I cleaned my stainless steel jewelry cleaner thoroughly before use. I'm a little concerned.
Also, the consistency and color were about like milk. It was liquid, not thick. Is that correct?edit on 15-1-2013 by fictitious because: (no reason given)
Do you think it's still ok to drink this batch? I bought a pretty cheap USC and noticed it was starting to get hot right at 25 minutes or so.
