About Vitamin B12, if you need to inject it for medical reasons you should definitely continue to use your medications. About Vitamin C, 2g/day is 2000% of the recommended value. We plan to include the possibility to increase the dosage beyond 100%, but we will not reach such extreme values as they are not recommended for the vast majority of the population. Finally, about the additional supplements that you mentioned, we do let our customers suggest us new supplements to include in the Multiply Pill. Our list of supplement is not static, and we will expand it including the supplements that meet our scientific standards (validation in the medical literature) and have sufficient demand! |

> meet our scientific standards (validation in the medical literature)
There is mounting evidence[1][2][3][4][5] that only people with known vitamin deficiencies and the supervision of a doctor should take vitamins. They're not even just a placebo -- in many cases they can be dangerous.
It seems as though you'll be capitalizing on what is increasingly revealing itself to be a shady, snake-oily industry. You actually have irresponsible, untrue, and potentially dangerous statements on the front page of your website, including the ideas that people should take vitamin D[6] or that Omega 3s boost brain function[7].
