In this study, Turkish scientists investigated the vasodilatory effect of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (\u03b1-tocopherol) \u2013 i.e., their ability to widen blood vessels \u2013 in patients with coronary heart disease. For this purpose, participants were divided into three groups of 31 subjects each: the first group received 2 g of vitamin C and the second 2 g of vitamin C plus 600 mg of vitamin E; the third group received no supplement. The results showed that vitamin C in combination with vitamin E contributed to vasodilation in patients with coronary artery disease.
