please, you know that last study is crap...but do me a favor, post, for me, the polquin studies PROVING that he went from 6% to 3% JUST by adding Vitamin C...sorry, but i call total bullshit on that...and that study for Vitamin C and MVC, dood, they were only taking 500mg, certainly not a megadose, and certainly an amount you can get from a healthy diet, and again, maximal voluntary contraction doesnt take anything such as previous workout history, current strength/conditioning, etc. into account, so honestly, i think that study is crap too...and as far as Hooker goes, i dont always count his word as automatic gold either, as he's well aware, and that study, again, was with marathon runners, not bodybuilders, and common sense leads me to believe that there is a difference...i dont think any LONGTERM studies have been done on the effects of megadoses on our organs, and that is the most important factor here...your liver or kidney just doesnt stop working over night my friend...
