Reducing or removing the vitamin C in the D3+K2 supplement?

The D3+K2 supplement contains 225mg of Vitamin C. Given that there is some research showing that taking large doses of anti-oxidants such as Vitamin C (500mg/day, see below) interferes with anabolic muscle signaling, strength development and long term muscle growth, its intake should probably be controlled by people who exercise. Anyone eating a balanced diet is probably getting enough vitamin C already so supplementation is not really necessary.

I really wanted to buy D3+K2 supplement, but I'm afraid that the extra vit C may negatively affect my gains :). Is there any possibility of either reducing or removing it from the formulation?

Hi MisterYouAreSoDumb. I am writing to you here, 'cause I didn't know how to send a chat to you. Anyway, I cannot find your Immune Defense-product? Can you send my a link? Thanks. I have had some kind of infection in my eyes, nose and ears for 4 weeks. I cannot get rid of it. Iøve tried different stuff, nothing works, I would like to try Immune defense, thank you
