1: Low vitamin C levels impair fat loss

by Paul Cribb, B.H.Sci HMS
AST Director of Research

Not enough vitamin C in the blood stream has been suggested to
retard fat metabolism. That\'s the conclusion of a recent study
presented at the Experimental Biology 2006 Meeting in San
Francisco last month.

Nutrition researchers from Arizona State University reported
that the amount of vitamin C in the blood stream is directly
related to fat oxidation - the body's ability to use fat as a
fuel source - during both exercise and at rest.

The findings of this study on a group of 20 overweight men and
women revealed that as the participants progressed through the
four week diet, those not given vitamin C (500mg each day)
showed lever levels of this vitamin in their blood each week. As
vitamin C blood concentrations fell in this group so did their
ability to oxidize (utilize) fat. Vitamin C appears to play an
important role in fat utilization as a fuel source. However,
this water soluble vitamin can\'t be stored in the body, so
frequent, daily does are necessary you\'re attempting to lose
body fat.

Until next time

Namaste
