Vitamin C is rapidly finding new applications in protecting against :-
1. endothelial dysfunction
2. high blood pressure, and
3. the blood vessel changes that precede heart disease
Additional research is discovering that vitamin C can be helpful in :-
1. preventing asthma
2. protecting against cancer, and
3. supporting healthy blood sugar levels in diabetics
Vitamin C—Breakthroughs in Cardiovascular Health
For years, scientists have warned us against the dangerous buildup of
plaque that can lead to a heart attack or stroke. Researchers are
investigating the possibilities that vitamin C may play a role in
reducing our risk of plaque buildup.
The researchers went on to demonstrate that the same small dose of
vitamin C was able to normalize a molecule that white blood cells use to
adhere to the endothelium.
The findings indicated that through supplementation with vitamin C,
scientists were able to regulate how specific genes produce vital
proteins, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease at the
molecular level.
Preventing Asthma
It appears that vitamin C plays two important roles in lessening the
symptoms of asthma. The first and foremost is the role C plays in with
our immune system. The bodies production of immune system cells is
dependent on vitamin C. The higher the "challenge", the more our C is
used up. It is important to remember that when exposed to a stress, the
vitamin C in our bodies can be used up in a matter of seconds . This is why it is especially important to take vitamin C in multiple doses throughout the day when we are under stress.
The second role of C is as an antioxidant. Asthma attacks
often occur when the lungs are under stress from allergens. These
allergens often produce oxidants that weaken the smooth muscle wall of
the bronchi. Vitamin C is the primary antioxidant in the lungs. This
may help squelch the oxidants, prevent them from weakening the lungs and
avoid an attack.
