title: [The effect of high dosage vitamin C treatment on the carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in diabetics using insulin].
abstract: In 19 insulin-dependent diabetics under compensated metabolic conditions the influence of a highly-dosed short-term vitamin C-treatment with 2,000 mg of ascorbic acid on the carbohydrate and fat metabolism was examined during a stay in hospital. Under the treatment with vitamin C low concentrations of blood glucose in the daily profile are observed, in which case this effect of ascorbic acid on the carbohydrate metabolism cannot be statistically ascertained. Triglyceride, cholesterol, FFA-concentrations and glycerol concentrations are not influenced.
