If you are low, by even a small amount, it can make a big difference to your performance. Our modern lives stop us from eating properly and we from time to time need suppliments. It's your choice in the end. Thanks for reading. Hi Jimmy,

I would like to know if I need to take 2000mg of vitamin C to get the absorbtion of 200mg as he also stated "...your body may need two hundred milligrams per day of a certain vitamin so you don't need to get vitamin supplements that are five hundred milligrams per tablet."

I take calcium and magnesium supplements along with a fleet of medicines for diabetes and cholesterol, but none have helped. I have examined the contents for the rather expensive products marketed to cyclists, and decided that I do it a less expensively, by buying Calcium Lactate in powder form and dissolving it into my bottle, drinking some before and then during the ride. Is it really better to try to absorb all of this “up front” (as you would with SportsLegs, for example) in pill form, or is my plan realistic? I do not like taking massive doses of all at once. Calcium Lactate can be bought in pills, but it would take a lot of pills to match the dosage in the products marketed to cyclists. I plan to start with 1100mg before and another 100mg during the exercise, and ramp this up a little if it is not effective. Has anyone else tried this?
