About 20% of urinary excretion accounted for unmetabolized ascorbic acid, 20% for 2,3-diketo-1-gulonic acid, 2% for dehydroascorbic acid, and on average 44% for oxalate.
“About 20% of urinary excretion accounted for unmetabolized ascorbic acid, the other 20% for 2,3-diketo-1-gulonic acid, only 2% for dehydroascorbic acid, while, on average, 44% was eliminated in the form of oxalate [79].”

Radioactive labelled vitamin C administered to three humans showed that most is eliminated by the kidney; less than 1% by feces and virtually none as carbon dioxide.
“Radioactive labelled vitamin C administered to three humans showed that most of the amount is eliminated by the kidney. Only less than 1% was eliminated by the feces and virtually no vitamin C was breathed out as carbon dioxide.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
