Vitamin C for Henry VIII
2009-04-30

Now we know that poor old Henry VIII should have been taking his vitamin C. It just may have prevented him from getting gout.

Gout is a form of arthritis. Men are most commonly afflicted. It was very common during the late 1800s, but it’s now making a comeback, probably due to a rise in known risk factors among men in our culture. These risk factors include: obesity, high alcohol intake, and a diet high in red meat.

Researchers from the Boston University School of Medicine studied 47,000 male health care professionals for 20 years. They found that men who took 1,000 to 1,499 mg of vitamin C daily had a 34 percent decreased risk of suffering from gout than men who took no vitamin C. Plus -- men who took 1,500 mg or more per day of this super vitamin had a 45% lower risk of getting the disease.

But if you take enough vitamin C, you probably won‘t ever suffer from gout. As a reminder, I urge even the healthiest of individuals get at the very minimum 2,000 mg (1,000 mg 2x daily) of vitamin C.

Great news for you. Too late for Henry.
