A theory on enhancing Vitamin A excretion by enhancing glucuronidation

PreviousPage 5 of 5

Um... wow. Thank you for that find. I'm honestly shocked. I mean I've already become very careful in trusting mainstream media, to put it mildly (and especially on health topics, it's mostly ridiculous), but I guess you cannot trust them on anything, or your actual doctor, for that matter.

Also giving that meta-analysis a read.

You're welcome.

Viral infection leads to transient Hypervitaminosis A. Elevated levels of retinoic acid stimulate cellular release of collagen degrading enzymes. Accelerated collagen breakdown results in elevated ascorbate requirements.

So there's a direct physiological reason to supplement with vitamin C during a viral infection.
