One reason to take 18grams per day is from having some knowledge of who Linus Pauling was and from subsequently actually having spent time studying Pauling's findings by reading the related books he had published. 18 grams is not an arbitrarily chosen number that just appeared out of the Aether one day; it is one that Pauling arrived at as a result of his own studies, and it is one that he himself consumed on a daily basis. Also note this is not 18 grams made up of 5 grams actual ascorbic/sodium ascorbate/calcium ascorbate/etc and 13 grams of assorted fillers and other assorted poisons, this is 18 grams made up of 18 grams of actual C. True, by passing through the mouth then the stomach, all 18 grams does not get absorbed into the blood, but, absorbed or not, all 18 miligrams do serve various benefits while they work their way through the body and out via elimination.

From where have you gotten the notion that all human bodies cannot absorb more than 300mg daily?

FWIW, RDA established 60mg as the daily amount required to prevent scurvy. The unspoken message from the RDA and their fellow medical mafia brethern in visciously holding the line on 60 mg daily is - "yes, we acknowledge that 60 mg of C prevents a well known disease, nonetheless we strongly advocate that nobody should try to extend this logic in hopes that larger doses will themselves reveal additional health benefits against other diseases and maladies; we religiously adhere to the belief that one should not in any way attempt to exceed this amount we dictate but should instead always and only ever take no more than 60mg per day. We thank you for blindly accepting our policy and your government thanks you for being a good little sheep".
