Vitamin C supplementation increases blood uric acid levels.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that vitamin C supplementation increases blood uric acid levels?

Unclear. Two studies bear on the claim, and both point the other way: a small trial in children on hemodialysis found vitamin C supplementation significantly reduced serum uric acid, and a case-control study in coronary artery disease patients associated higher uric acid with lower serum vitamin C. Neither is a general-population randomized trial of supplementation, so the evidence only partially addresses the claim and leans against it.
