Where to start....
B and C (the water-soluble vitamins) are less likely to reach toxic levels because they are easily excreted but they do have toxicity levels.
Vit. C: 2g/day is the max. You are correct on them converting to pro-oxidants but wrong on the level.
You will also get bad diarrhea with too much vit. C.
Generally it is harder to get to toxic levels with pure food form. Most of the time it is people megadosing with vitamins... they think as some have erroneously stated that just because they are B or C coupled with the fact they are OTC that they are "safer."
