Vitamin C's Powers to Improve Your Mood: A New Study | Everything Science | NewsBreak Original

It's nice to find an easy, real answer that's as close as our next meal in a world where trying to be happy often leads us down the rabbit hole of self-help books and health trends. Think about what would happen if the key to a better mood and a more positive view on life was hidden in our fruit bowls. That being said, new study shows that this might not be so far from the truth, especially when it comes to vitamin C-rich foods like kiwifruit and regular vitamin C pills.

    This reads like an advert for kiwi.

    This study looked at how daily doses of vitamin C—either from a 250 mg tablet or, more enticingly, two SunGoldTM kiwifruits—can affect our mood, energy, and overall sense of well-being.

      It basically is…

      A good practice is to check who funded the given study. Look under acknowledgements.

      In this case, it was Zespri International Ltd. “the world’s largest marketer of kiwifruit”

      The purported benefits claims are from self-assessment phone surveys…

      Definitively no suspicion of bias in this research…

    Self reported surveys are not exactly the pinnacle of accurate science.

      I can’t even be in the house if they’re cooking liver. It smells disgusting to me.

        You get used to it. But anyway, you eat it for health.
