Cardiovascular Disease- How to Reverse Heart Disease


 

Vitamin C and cardiovascular disease:

An analysis was conducted on 19,496 men and women, ages 45 to 79, in the U.K. The participants’ blood was tested for ascorbic acid (a form of vitamin C) and they were placed in five groups (quintiles) according to their serum ascorbic acid levels. Men and women were tracked separately. The researchers observed how many people died of cardiovascular disease, ischemic heart disease, cancer, and all causes in each of the blood ascorbic acid quintiles. In every case (except for women at risk of cancer), death rates were significantly lower among those with higher blood ascorbic acid levels. Those with the highest ascorbic acid levels compared to the lowest levels had half the risk of dying from ischemic heart disease, cardiovascular disease, and all causes combined.
