The impact of plasma vitamin C levels on the risk of cardiovascular diseases and Alzheimer's disease: a Mendelian randomization study
Previous observational studies have reported associations between plasma vitamin C levels, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, no conclusive results have been obtained. We conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate the causality of vitamin C on the risk of nine CVDs [including coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction (MI), atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure (HF), stroke, ischemic stroke (IS), and IS subtypes] and Alzheimer's disease.

Vitamin C and scar strength: analysis of a historical trial and implications for collagen-related pathologies
Am J Clin Nutr. 2021 Aug 16:nqab262. doi: 10.1093/ajcn/nqab262. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA double-blind controlled trial initiated in 1944 has led to the common narrative that a 10-mg daily vitamin C intake is adequate to prevent and treat impaired wound healing, and by inference, other collagen-related diseases such as heart disease or stroke. The WHO relies on this narrative to set the recommended nutrient intake for vitamin C. This narrative, however, is based on what is known as the eyeball method of data assessment. The 1944 trial published individual participant data on scar strength providing an opportunity to ...
