Abstract

The conclusions of the Scientific Correspondence by Podmore et al . are undermined by some unaddressed scientific issues. Podmore et al . gave vitamin C supplements of 500 milligrams to healthy volunteers, and measured levels of vitamin C in plasma and of oxidative DNA adducts in lymphocytes before, during and after supplementation.
