Vitamin C = Jeruk= Antioksidan=Herbal

Untuk memperoleh manfaat yang maksimal, tampaknya makan buah segar memang lebih baik tinimbang makan/ minum vitamin saja. Baru-baru ini, para peneliti di University of Milan, Itali, membuktikannya.

Mereka membandingkan efek antioksidan yang ditunjukan oleh sampel darah para sukarelawan. Masing-masing sukarelawan minum 1 dari 3 zat berikut: jus jeruk, air plus vitamin C dan air plus gula. Ternyata, sample darah dari sukarelawan yang minum jus jeruk memperlihatkan kerusakan DNA paling sedikit! Sementara itu, air plus vitamin C dianggap tidak memberi perlindungan terhadap kerusakan DNA akibat oksidasi. Waah…itulah keunggulan kealamian obat herbal

Mereka menduga bahwa tidak sekedar vitamin C, tapi ada substansi lain yang bertanggung jawab atas efek antioksidan yang diberikan oleh jeruk. Dari: myhealthblogging.com
