title: Intake of antioxidants among American cardiologists.
abstract: A survey of 181 cardiologists was conducted to determine their coronary artery disease (CAD) risk profile and their intake of antioxidants. The survey reflected that the prevalence of CAD risk factors increases with age, as does the prophylactic intake of antioxidants (vitamin E was greater than vitamin C, and vitamin C was greater than beta carotene).
