Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 You can bet that the vitamin C was low dose ascorbic acid and the vitamin E was the synthetic form of alpha-D-tocopherol. I.e., the trial was designed to fail. If the study had used natural mixed tocopherols and calcium ascorbate, the results would've been far better. The " studies " were carried out using your money which adds insult to injury. We're being setup for Codex Alimentarius which will greatly reduce our access to any meaningful supplementation. The NIH, imo, has become another agency " taken over " by Big Pharma. Real science, in the publics' interest, is not condoned there anymore. D. Mindock --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ ---------------------------------------------- From NPA's newsletter: Vitamin C and E supplements do not reduce risk for blood pressure disorders of pregnancy The National Institutes of Health Share Taking vitamin C and E supplements starting in early pregnancy does not reduce the risk for the hypertensive disorders and their complications that occur during pregnancy, according to a study by a National Institutes of Health research network. The supplements notably failed to reduce the risk of preeclampsia, a potentially fatal form of hypertension in pregnancy. The findings are in contrast to suggestions in some previous small studies that the vitamins could reduce the risk of preeclampsia. Those studies were not confirmed in subsequent larger studies.
