No, you are mistaken, the more iron there is reacting in your body the more C you need. As far as copper do more research. Tons of studies on C. I've been studying it for 9 months.

Influence of ascorbic acid supplementation on copper status in young adult men. - PubMed - NCBINo, you are mistaken, the more iron there is reacting in your body the more C you need. As far as copper do more research. Tons of studies on C. I've been studying it for 9 months.
I would not take that one study as fact. What were these guys CP before doing the AA? If it was higher than normal that indicates inflammation. So it going down is a good thing. I am in group where people do testing on themselves and have found very large amounts of AA to normalize both copper and iron. Also a few people cured of heart disease. That's miraculous in my opinion when the only thing doctors offer is surgery and drugs.
There are many studies about its benefits, but it's not a one application for all. Imagine a person with iron-overload then overloading their system with vitamin c; the reaction would be terrible, endless oxidization.
Same with those who have a copper deficiency, vitamin c, especially supplemented will only make them worse.
I think Ray said he would only take 50 mg at once of vitamin c and that is how it used to be made, but the new method of making it produces contaminants. I believe there is a thread somewhere citing this.
Like I said earlier in this thread, there are freeze dried acerola cherry and camu camu fruit powders on the market with an extremely high vitamin c content. I actually started taking some 2 days ago, just to see if I can feel any effects (around 1000 mg of vitamin c / day). Don't really feel that much different to be honest, maybe in a few days.I think less is more with vitamin C, and I don't imply ascorbic acid in isolation per se. Perhaps a product from a whole food source is better, than corn/hexane derived Chinese stuff. Idk.
I saw it mentioned elsehwere on the net that too much Vitamin C is actually estrogenic. Is that really the case?
For most of the last 5-6 years I've been supplementing with Emergen-C at least once a day. In fact for most of the last 2 years I was taking two of them a day (which would amount to 2000mg of Vit-C). I stopped taking it about a week ago and I'm noticing my face isn't looking as puffy and my workouts are now making me legitimately full/sore again for multiple days whereas prior I would almost never wake up sore anymore or it would last maybe one day max.
i think sick frequently should have more vitamin c from fruits and vegetables. i googled for bloggers' reviews and i got this review of vitamin c benefits.So much misinformation! Vitamin C can literally save your life if you are sick. Can't say the same about taking thyroid. Do more research.

The story of Irwin Stone, PhD, biochemist and researcher, on doctoryourself.com, who began using ascorbic acid when it became commercially available before WW2.

Are you sure you are not just inhibiting glycogen storage in muscles? Vitamin C and glucose compete for the transporter, so if you consume vitamin C in large quantities at or around your meal the glucose will not end up as effectively in glycogen, but in fat.Why would Emergen-C not be good?
I dunno about all the T-increasing stuff at least based on my own experience. Ever since I stopped taking it my muscles feel a lot fuller.
