y reducing the amount of antioxidants present in the bone, lack of estrogen is the main osteoporosis cause, a disease of the bone degeneration, according to a study conducted on rodents by the team headed by Professor Chambers the medical school at Saint Georges Hospital (London), recently published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.Professor Chambers and his colleagues in the department of cellular pathology observed that an oophorectomy (removal of the ovaries) the quantity of two major antioxidant present in the bone marrow of mice declined sharply.
The latter would be returned to normal after an injection of estrogen "estradiol 17B."
Moreover, the administration of other antioxidants (N-acetyl-cysteine and ascorbate) promoting the development of the first two cancelled the effects of oophorectomy on bones.
Osteoporosis was recently ranked second in its list of major health problems by the World Health Organization (WHO). The researchers believe that other studies have come to confirm their results before that postmenopausal women, particularly affected by this disease, did throw on nutritional supplements (NAC) or vitamin C (ascorbate).
