Vitamin C-1000 250 tabs

Vitamin
C is a water-soluble vitamin that has a number of biological functions.
Acting as an antioxidant, one of vitamin C’s important functions is to
protect LDL cholesterol from oxidative damage. (Only when LDL is damaged
does cholesterol appear to lead to heart disease, and vitamin C may be one
of the most important antioxidant protectors of LDL.)1 Vitamin C
may also protect against heart disease by reducing the stiffness of arteries
and the tendency of platelets to clump together.
The antioxidant properties of vitamin C are thought to protect smokers,
as well as people exposed to secondhand smoke, from the harmful effects of
free radicals. A controlled trial demonstrated the ability of 3 grams of
vitamin C, taken by non-smokers two hours prior to being exposed to
cigarette smoke, to reduce the free radical damage and LDL cholesterol
oxidation associated with exposure to cigarette smoke.3 The
smoke-induced decline in total antioxidant defense was also diminished.
These beneficial effects were not observed in non-smokers under normal
conditions (no free radical exposure).
