there is no medical reason why vitamin c would enhance your roll. if you like taking it and think that it helps you out, then more power to you.
some people take vitamin c after they roll 'cause it's an anti-oxidant so it may protect your brain from the after-effects of e. if you want to take it for the anti-oxidant effect you might consider trying vitamin e (seriously

) which is a stronger anti-oxidant. too much of it isn't a good thing, but 800 iu's should be good

From what i understand is Vitamin C stays in the blood streem for a short while. less than a coulpe of hours. While in the blood stream Vit C will not enter the brain,(unless there is physical damage) while in the blood stream Vit C will collect certain toxins and pass them straight out of the system via the kidneys... I think thats it... dont qoute me on this...

Vitamin C is an antioxidant, E is thought to cause neurotoxicity through oxidized dopamine radicals.
E has also been implicated in a downgrade in function of the natural killer cell's, an integral part of the immune system. Vitamin C's role in immune system strength serves to counteract this.
Vitamin C also has significant benefits on tissue repair & recovery as well as connective tissue strength.

the 'killer cells' are they the two cells that are released in the later stages of sickness?

You know, I read somewhere that vit C helps in the production of neurotransmitters. Assuming that's true, it could, in theory prolong your roll. Then again, I might have read wrong.
