Phospholipids associated with vitamin C in experimental atherosclerosis.
The favourable action of phospholipids and of Vitamin C in reverting the process of atherogenesis, already repeatedly described in the literature, was explored by the authors in applying an association of these two substances in experimental atherosclerosis. The obtained results not only confirm, once again, the prophylactic and therapeutic activity of phospholipids and vitamin C, but also demonstrate that these components, when associated, lead to much better results in the prevention and resolution of atheromatous plaques provoked in rabbits by cholesterol-feeding.
